Why Do People Hate ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ So Much?

For the past 12 years, Keeping Up with the Kardashians has stood the test of time as one of the most popular reality shows of this generation.

Though the series has a very large fan base and has individuals who watch every episode religiously, KUWTK also has a wide range of people who can’t stand the sight of it.

There are many things people have a problem with when it comes to the Kardashian-Jenner family, but when it comes to their reality show, they do not hold back.

The show doesn’t represent a normal society

Though there are many people who just can’t get enough of the Kardashian family and their crazy antics showcased during each episode, there are a large number of people who have a problem with the show’s message.

Keeping Up With The Kardashians first aired on E! back in 2007.

People were initially enthralled by the idea of having cameras following around a rich family living in Calabasas, California as they balanced their careers and family life.

Though the Kardashians received fame from the unlikeliest circumstances (Kim’s sex tape and patriarch Robert Kardashian representing O.J. Simpson), fans loved everything this family was about the minute their show aired.

However, as more and more seasons started coming, people couldn’t help but despise KUWTK the more they watched it.

Due to the fact that this show follows an extremely rich family who just happened to get famous by chance, many people feel as though this reality show gives viewers a false representation of society.

The Kardashian-Jenners glorify money and make it seems as though the only way to be successful in life is to come from a rich family.

Though people who come from money get to live the life of luxury, some individuals feel as though the Kardashians make it seems as though life is not as interesting if you don’t have money.

It doesn’t always come across as authentic

Another reason people completely despise Keeping Up With The Kardashians is that some of the episodes come across as staged.

We understand this is a reality show and there has to be drama to keep viewers interested, but some of the things the Kardashian-Jenner family does are just ridiculous.

From Kim Kardashian’s 72-day marriage to the family taking care of a monkey for a day, the reality show has been called out for being scripted just to up the views.

The latest instance came just a few weeks after the Jordyn Woods and Tristan Thompson scandal.

In the promo video for Season 16 of KUWTK, many found it weird that the cheating scandal was going to featured.

The scandal happened close to the end of February 2019 and the promo video for the new season was released on March 27.

This makes some believe that the Kardashian family staged all of that drama in order to fans excited for the upcoming season of their show.

The family is famous for being famous

There are a large number of people who really want Keeping Up With The Kardashians off the air mainly because they’re sick of hearing about this famous family.

With the show being on television for the past 12 years now, it is becoming pretty predictable.

Though some of their antics can be pretty funny, the Kardashians are not as big of entertainers as they make themselves out to be.

Usually, people who are already famous tend to land a reality series in order for fans to get an inside look into their lives behind the scenes.

The Kardashian family lucked out when it came to landing their show (thanks Kim) and once it aired, people began to realize just how talentless they are.

Though they lack talent, they make up for that in personality, which is something everyone in the family has a lot of.

Due to their over the top personas, the Kardashians are talked about practically every single day and always make headlines.

They are famous for being famous and though there are people who do not like them, the Kardashians do not see themselves giving up on their show anytime soon.
