DOWN HOME FLOP?
Cole is set to appear alongside wife Chelsea Houska in the upcoming home renovation series Down Home Fab.
The show, debuting in January on HGTV, already has fans tearing it to shreds over its perceived "fakeness" and overall "boring" content.
When the first teaser for the show aired, viewers pronounced Chelsea and Cole "Great Value Chip & Joanna", referring to Chip and Joanna Gaines.
Another admitted they "fell asleep four times" while watching.
Fans mocked Chelsea for her comments on painting things black and adding cowhides to decor, saying she had "never had an original thought in her life."
Down Home Fab will follow Chelsea and Cole as they take their renovation business on the go and tackle different projects in each episode in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
ADOPTION ANXIETY
In addition to their professional lives flourishing, the famous family's personal life has garneded positive fan attention.
As seen in an older clip resurfaced online, Chelsea asked husband Cole to adopt her daughter Aubree.
The throwback clip found Chelsea and Cole trying to determine whether Aubree would want Cole to adopt her in the first place.
Aubree was close to her biological father Adam Lind, despite his faults as a positive role model.
Chelsea asked Aubree if she would want a new father figure in her life, meaning Cole.
However, the former Teen Mom star shared that Aubree wasn't interested when she learned her dad would not be "her dad" anymore.
Chelsea still wasn't ready to give up after that, and asked father Randy.
Randy didn't find it a good idea at the time, but Cole interjected with his opinion quickly.
"If [Aubree] asked me to, I'd do it in a heartbeat," he said. "But I don't wanna hurt her feelings."
Fans called Cole "greedy" for wanting to jump in and take the dad role.
Others called it "odd" to bring up adoption as an option to Aubree in the first place.
Another fan said: "Chelsea can change Aubree's last name all she wants, it's never going to change her DNA."
