This show is a machine to print money. The writers are going to write whatever story line they want to get people to watch. NO ONE is going to watch a so-called reality show where everyone is happy and there are no issues. Scott is portrayed as a train wreck and it makes for good ratings (and apparently a good thread here on tpf).

This all day.

But the messed up thing is that their storylines are not even interesting. The more scripted they've made their show, the faster their number of viewers has declined. So I don't think it's really working. They aren't good actors/actresses, so they can't pull it off and make it interesting. If they are truly happy, etc. I personally would rather watch that then be insulted with the fakery they call a "reality show."

I agree, but she does seem like the brains behind their Dash stores. And she co-set up "Smooch" with her mother. I'm sure she has a business degree of sorts - none of the others do - and she's always the one who initiates lease renewals, etc. Kim would never get off her butt and do any of this stuff - she'd assume it's being done by someone else, or pay someone to take care of it; and Khloe probably wouldn't even know where to start.

I'm surprised that she splashed out on that mega-mansion though - I thought she was quite money-savvy, and that just seems like such an over-the-top purchase.

I think when the show first started people wanted to be like them (minus the daughter-being-peed-on-sex-tape, hopefully) / they wanted to tune in and see what fabulous things they were doing; but now it's all such a big car crash they want to tune in and see "why" ... at least that's the case for me.

I liked them at first, not gonna lie, but I cannot remember the last time I watched.
People ARE watching though, albeit less apparently, and people ARE still talking about them. So don't be expecting them to go anywhere anytime soon. Look at all their threads here, people love to hate them.

I am! �� I think I'm one of the few loyal viewers they have left. I've been watching them since season 1. All their spin offs, wedding shows, all of it lol I just find that it's gotten boring for me. That's why I feel the script writing isn't working all that well.

The moment I thought "Yep, run out of storyline ideas" was watching the episode where they picked out their graveyard spots.

I think people have tired of Kim - even her biggest fans (the few left) are shaking their heads about her recent antics. The selfie addiction thing she has going on is just so odd.

Yeah, I definitely agree that people tuned in a lot more during the earlier seasons bc they were a lot more relatable and real. They are just really a strange bunch now and extremely fake. The general public just can't relate to them anymore. I just don't enjoy the fakery, It bores me bc I know it's not real. Yet, I keep watching. Lol

And she shamelessly talks about how her life is all about selfies. In last nights episode when she was shopping for the camera to take her stupid selfies with she's all " the perfect selfie isn't that what life's all about." Lol I dunno why I still watch this crap. I blame my DVR for allowing me to watch it late at night when I can't sleep and my ability to FF through the boring stuff, which is most of it now a days.

I liked them too. The show used to be very cute. Heck I used to workout to it. I think I have watched maybe 5 episodes in the past 2 years and 2 were last week out of utter boredom.

The difference between the first couple seasons and now is startling. I didn't realize how big a change there was until I watched some old season 1 and 2 episodes recently. The girls used to work at the store (I mean, for the most part), the family house was smaller and decorated so NORMALLY (Americana, like my mom would decorate), Kourtney lived in a regular old townhouse that looked like a place many of us could probably afford, more or less. They seemed so much more relatable. They were "out there" but kinda fun. I liked the show in the beginning. I even liked Kim! And it was only a 30 minute show.

Now it's an hour of spoiled, bratty adults and over-sexed teenagers. With the exception of the babies pretty much everyone behaves appallingly (Kourtney might be okay). I still watch but I don't know why? I kinda hate myself for it. Damnit, PMK, I've played right into your greedy pimp hands!

I'm right in that group with you Bentley! :shame: The first few seasons were good but it's so fake now and I spend most of my time eye rolling watching it these days. They are getting more annoying with every episode. Why do I keep watching it? I record it so that when I'm doing a boring household task such as ironing or emptying / loading the dishwasher that I can just switch it on to have a bit of background mindless entertainment LOL.

I feel the need to remind everyone that Kim is in her thirties. Pathetic....
