The Kardashians made its debut at midnight on Thursday, and fans were already excited to see the Kardashian–Jenner clan back on TV after wrapping up Keeping Up With The Kardashians last year.
Early social reaction to the series from fans appeared to be largely positive, with several complimenting its storylines and its higher production values.
Multiple viewers also noted the seemingly cyclical nature of the reality series, as Kim Kardashian and her family were once again dealing with the fallout of a potential sex tape in the premiere episode, just as they did on KUWTK back in 2007.
One viewer spoke for many when they tweeted that they were ‘LOVING’ the new series.
‘It feels more real and authentic than the last few seasons,’ they added.
Another user described the series as ‘literally the new revamped era of reality tv…’
‘THAT WAS SO GOOD,’ gushed another fan, ‘ who added that the family should ‘BURN [Roblox] TO THE GROUND!!!’
Some users also noted the quality of the cinematography, which appeared to be a step up from the more traditional reality-style footage of KUWTK.
