Are my prayers about to be finally answered? According to reports, ever since Kim Kuntrashian and that entire vile family of fame whores cooked up that staged marriage that is playing out currently all over E!, ratings are down on the once beloved series and there's not much interest in having them on the cover of your favorite tabloids. The New York Post went as far as calling the Kuntrashian Klan "absolutely toxic." I guess with all the ridiculous antics, a wedding we all knew wouldn't last as long as one season of any of their reality spin-offs, and Wendy Williams kissing their ass during every segment of "Hot Topics", people have finally woken up and are over the bullshit and all their deceit, a move that has garnered their rich asses more millions over the past few years.
The New York Post spills the tea:
E!’s Kardashian TV franchise — “Keeping up with the Kardashians” — suffered a 14 percent dip in Nielsen ratings, from 3.5 million viewers per episode last season to 3 million this season.
Circulation at Us Weekly, In Touch, Life & Style and OK! dropped about 18 percent when a Kardashian was on the cover in December, publishers said.
Even shoe maker Skechers ditched Kim as the face of the company in 2011 — they’ve replaced her with a French bulldog.
“I’m bored with them,” said Manhattan publicist R. Couri Hay, who organized paid Kardashian visits to clubs in 2008 and 2010.
After Kim basically followed the Parisite Hilton formula for the past few years, (by whoring herself out for every endoursement deal under the sun, and claiming your fame by giving us the worst sex tape ever),
it looks like people have become bored with their ridiculously staged antics (Kourtney clipping coupons...really?). I will admit I have caught a few episodes of Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami and I did watch a few episodes of Kim and Kourtney Try To Take New York during it's first season, but to be frank, I've never been into the Kuntrashians like I am with other reality shows, like Jersey Shore and all The Real Housewives (ATL, NY, NJ and Beverly Hills). While I'm sure E! will do it's best to squeeze a little more life out of this tired franchise, I have a feeling that this isn't the last we'll be seeing of this family anytime soon, especially since Kim has a role in Tyler Perry's The Marriage Counselor.
