KARDASHIAN fans have shared their frustrations over the family’s Hulu series.
The show, which is now in its second season, has been slammed by viewers for repeatedly featuring the stars’ own products.

Recent episodes have shown Kim, 42, Khloe, 38, and Kylie and Kendall Jenner, 25 and 26, promoting their own brands.
Last week’s episode saw the Skims’ boss hit Miami for the launch party of her new swimwear line.
The scenes gave Kim plenty of opportunites to feature the company logo and show off the products.
Similarly, Kendall plugged her drinks brand 818 Tequila with a party in Las Vegas.
Khloe even blatantly pointed out that she was wearing her own brand Good American, as well as Skims and Kim’s ex Kanye West’s brand Yeezy in a scene from last week’s episode.
But many viewers are getting sick of the repeated product features.
On TikTok, one fan recently complained: “Kardashians is just a chore to watch lately.
“It’s just constant ads and product placement.”

Another agreed: “The entire episode felt like one big ad.”
“There’s no reference to what is really going on in their lives – it’s just ads,” wrote a third.
BACK TO THE OLD SCHOOL
Many fans agreed that they preferred the predecessor to the Hulu show, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which aired on E! from 2007 to 2021.
Although some scenes from the old show and its numerous spin-offs were set around the family’s clothing store Dash, the series also showed uncomfortable moments for the family including nasty arguments between the sisters and even Khloe’s DUI arrest in 2007.
RAKING IT IN
However, as the sisters have grown up, they have all turned their attention to entrepreneurship.
Most successful of all is Kylie’s Kylie Cosmetics, which she launched in 2015.
Khloe followed shortly after with Good American in 2016, and Kim’s shapewear company Skims was founded in 2019.
Kendall’s 818 tequila hit the shelves in 2021, and most recently, Kourtney’s vitamin gummies from her brand Lemme became available in September.
The newlywed mom-of-three also has a lifestyle blog, Poosh, which she started in 2019.
New episodes of The Kardashians drop at midnight EST every Thursday on Hulu.
