Keeping Up With The Kardashians was a breakthrough series back in the time for the Kardashian-Jenner family. Led by momager Kris Jenner, the series starred Kardashian sisters Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Kendall, and Kylie Jenner, their brother Rob Kardashian and their various love interests over the years.

The series helped the family push into various circles of business enterprises as the sisters grew older and started their own cosmetic lines, perfumes, shapewear empires, liquor, and more. Together, the Kardashian-Jenner family holds a staggering amount of $5 billion. 

But it was a shock for their global audience when they announced in September 2020 that they will be discontinuing their series. Hence, the show ended after 20 seasons. Still, the Kardashians can only stay out of the limelight for too long. 

Kris Jenner is now busy shooting her second reality TV show with her family for Hulu and has dedicated her time to the series. She is helped by her boyfriend Corey Gamble and also strongly relies on her 5 daughters, who take fame very seriously. 

The family has much to showcase in the series. Kendal is up to her high fashion work, where she casually walks as a redhead for the Prada show in Milan. Kourtney was recently on a desert vacation with her fiance Travis Barker, and Kylie Jenner just welcomed home her second child with Travis Scott, Wolf Webster. 

All of the latest Kardashian drama can now be seen on Hulu, starting from April 14 as America's biggest reality TV family will make a return to TV screens. The new endeavor is only set to make the rich family richer. 

The series is expected to release a two-season run with 40 episodes as of now on Hulu. The exclusive Kardashian content is also said to be a more expensive experience for the family. The show will kickstart their fame onto Disney as they expand the project under the studio. 

The series will focus on all the tabloid-worthy Kardashian lives and will provide an inside look into the messy divorce of Kim Kardashian with her former husband Kanye West and an equally messy romance with SNL star Pete Davidson

The family will also be able to tap into their social media following with the upcoming series and bring in more viewers. Presently the most famous reality TV family, the Kardashians have a collective 1.7 billion fan base across social media platforms. 

In fact, individual Kardashians have more followers on their Instagram accounts than the total subscribers of Netflix. Sadly, social media has also latched onto their personal lives and can be a bit "overwhelming" as Kylie Jenner put it after the birth of her son. 

Yet, not everyone is smitten by the excessive fame of the Kardashian family and the perks that come along for being some of the most influential business women out there. Many people take their fame and lifestyle as a personal vendetta against them and often use consumerist capitalism as a bargaining point for their comments. 

Yet, it is also true that their excessive richness has detached them from real lives and made them oblivious to the struggle of many others. 

Regardless, the girls have done a great job managing their distinct brands. Kim is in charge of her shapewear brand Skims, along with her cosmetics and perfume brands. 

Kylie has expanded to Kylie Cosmetics, Kylie Baby, and Kylie Swim. Khloe is the head of Good American brand, a go-to place for plus-size people. Kourtney manages Poosh lifestyle, and Kendall works with 818 Tequila. 

Their Hulu show will now be produced by Ben Winston's Fulwell 73. The series will shoot the ladies individually per regard to busy schedules and together whenever they have the time to come together.

The show will not star Caitlyn Jenner, and Rob Kardashian, the brother of the Kardashian sisters will also be limited to guest appearances. He maintains that the reality show is not something that is great for his physical and mental wellbeing. 

Kourtney Kardashian also believes that her experience with Keeping Up had become toxic as of late and that she was burnout by the end of it. However, she has stated that she is ready to move on to something new when the earlier show has ended. This is the perfect opportunity to bring something new to the audience now. 

The series will have a streaming run. Hence, the episodes will be available for viewing much sooner than the previous show. It allows the topics of the series to be current and timely with the Kardashian clan's real life.

 They also made a conscious decision to bring the series on Hulu for streaming so that the family could come beyond as tech-forward. Khloe believed that still running on cable was not the brand the family wanted to present. 

Stay tuned to watch the series for Kim's divorce drama, Khloe's messy breakup with NBA player Tristan Thompson and his paternity lawsuit, and Kourtney's fairytale engagement with the drummer. Thompson will also have a small feature in the series. 

Kourtney shared that the Hulu show will be her last reality TV show, and she might relocate to a different city five years from now. Kim also entertains a similar fantasy where she can stop being her famous self 10 years down the line.
