I have a confession to make – I am becoming slightly obsessed with watching the Kardashian’s TV shows. Three are being shown over here on the Viva channel – the original Keeping up with the Kardashians and the spin-offs in Miami and New York.
I’m not usually a fan of reality TV shows, not least because they’re usually setup and not “real”. I watched some of the Osbournes but they annoyed me and I watched Katie Price’s once before she got mean but I’ve avoided The Only Way is Essex and didn’t really get The Hills.
There’s something sucking me into the Kardashians though – maybe it’s their ability to laugh at themselves, their many rows followed by cute make-ups, the fact they actually work and seem to be shrewd businesswomen and their many struggles with love. Whatever it is, I find the show hilarious and oddly compelling.
I’m even tempted to buy their book, don’t judge me 🙂
Any other fans out there?

Haven’t seen their show, but I kind of want to download a season of it now 🙂
Haha give it a go but you might get addicted too 🙂
no, never really a fan of the kardishans. hmm. i’m a recluse. 😦
I think that’s a fairly normal opinion and doesn’t mean you’re a recluse 🙂
I haven’t seen any of them! (OK, so I’ve seen one thing involving a Kardashian, but I shan’t comment on that further here. *cough*) I know that their name comes up often on the morning radio stations here in L.A., principally prefaced by words like, “When do we get to stop hearing about these people?!” This always tickles me, since the askers are the only place I hear about the Kardashians. Usually! 🙂
Haha wonder what that could be 🙂 Yeah they’re just perpetuating their fame!
Sorry, we part ways on this one. 😉
There had to be something!
Shhh…don’t tell anyone…but I used to watch it if I was home alone and bored. There is something a bit captivating about the inter family relationships!
Phew, I was starting to think I was a lone voice on here. Yay!
Okay, so when I traveled to New orleans just a few months ago…we visited our friend who lived in some fancy apartments. So we go to the pool deck area that views the river… it’s night and they all look up and begin counting the floors to the only light on…hey Reggie Bush is home. Then our friend looks at the pool and says “I wonder how many times Kim Kardashian swam naked here.” I guess she was dating that football player.
Of course, I had no clue who any of these people were and they nearly had a cow when I said “Who’s Reggie Bush?” (especially living in California) at least I’d heard of the Kardisian show and seen the girls plastered all over magazines while waiting to purchase groceries. I don’t follow football.

Hehe I’d be the same, no clue about football! I have seen him on the show though!
Yes Yes Yes, I am infatuated with them! My sister lives near Calabasas where they live. She brought me over to DASH, but we just looked at their clothing in the window. Kris has a children’s clothing store in the same area. It’s called Smooch. 🙂
Get the book!
Yay! Ooh I’d love to go there 🙂
I watched a couple of episodes and it was cute. I didn’t get totally sucked in, but I do love how gorgeous the girls are as well as how fashionable they are. 🙂
I’d love their wardrobe 🙂
Thus far I’ve been able to resist the temptation of reality television. It’s not really my bag, but I can see the allure. It’s that naughty little part of ourselves that just can’t help but watch these people behave like crazies. I think it’s the same thing where people rubberneck to look at an accident. On the one hand it’s terrible on the other you want to know what happened. It’s human, no judgments here Love. Although it you do buy the book…that’s like slow mo rubbernecking, you have to go our of your way to get it and then you’re parting with good money, good money which you could buy an eyeshadow with (OK, so I have my own weird problems, yes I factor money in terms of makeup).
Yeah you know shouldn’t watch but you can’t help it 🙂
I have a love/hate relationship. I hate that I don’t know whats going on with them and love when I find a marathon and watch for hours. But then hate that I wasted a few hours of my life. My friend met Kim last wk in Miami (she is a journalist who was at a promo event) and I asked her what she was like in person. She said she was very sweet but she looked air brushed….even in person, freaky.
I know what you mean! Ooh cool, I love hearing what celebs are like for real. Hmmm me thinks she’s had some work done 🙂
I’ve never watched it. I only saw Kim I think in one of the Apprentice series.
Ah I don’t watch that one!
i love how all the sisters vary in height!…its so strange when they are in pictures together lol
Haha very true!
They all look too thin & good looking. Damn them it would drive me insane.
Haha true!
haha I love that show! I think your right, the allure is the fact that this family can have fights but then laugh at themselves. I also love the fact that the sisters all so different in personality and their lives and that they work hard!
Though I did find it sad that Kim and Kris’ marriage did not work out after only 72 days.
We really do have a lot in common 🙂 I’m interested to know if their relationship was completely fake but I’d probably keep watching anyway!
I doubt that their shows are reallife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
