Episode Review Episode Review

The show is in an era where the original viewers could have expected more drama than we’re getting. The whole Hulu original show is a dull and less tame model from Keeping Up With The Kardashians and it doesn’t appear to be as engaging without the drama. Kim prefers to keep her mouth shut regarding Kanye and his online drama with her boyfriend Pete.

The Kardashians try to keep the controversy from being a distraction by painting their family in the best way possible, which is why it may appear biased. Kris is clear that is apprehensive about Khloe discussing Rob’s suit with Chyna. This could be a strategy to shield their reputation from further damage by broadcasting the show as “Reality- Television” then is a smear.

I’m certain that the creators are not going to address the issue regarding Kim as well as Kylie leaving a large amount of carbon footprint with other famous celebs. But, the show highlights the private planes that the sisters own as if they don’t have any sense of guilt over the things they do to devastate the earth.

The only thing I was anticipating in the episode is Kourtney’s surprise wedding, but we’ll need to wait another week before we see that completed.
