‘The Kardashians’ TV Show Sneak Peek Gets SLAMMED

Hulu created a new Twitter account, @KardashiansHulu, to hype the upcoming show, “The Kardashians.” And the streaming service promised to “shatter all expectations” with the April 14 premiere. But Twitter reacted by trying to shatter the polished image of the sisters as well as Hulu in that promo teaser for the KUWTK reboot.

For instance, some slammed Hulu for setting the teaser to Black songstress Nina Simone’s song “Feeling Good.” As one wrote, “Wish y’all would leave Nina Simone out of this…smh.” And others agreed. “Yeah, I hate they attached her misc to this,” chimed in another. 

But others slammed Kim Kardashian and her sisters for agreeing to post the promo during Black History Month, pointed out the Sun. For instance, one Twitter critic called the KUWTK clan “so sinister for this song choice and announcing it this month.” And another chimed in, “If Nina Simone was alive today. I just know she’d be repulsed that her work was being used to punctuate this awful family.”

Twitter Mocks And Questions ‘The Kardashians’! 

As a result of the rapidly re-tweeted promo, “The Kardashians” teaser also spawned some outrageous Twitter memes. And where great memes go, Reddit follows. For instance, one KUWTK fan compiled all the best Twitter reactions.  And in the process, every Kardashian sister came in for her share of mocking. 

But perhaps one of the funniest featured Kourtney Kardashian. Looking like she had her corset laced too tightly, the meme included a cleverly posed pic of singer Nicki Minaj. And it appeared that Nicki couldn’t resist giving Kourtney some shady side eye! 

But beyond the memes, some on Twitter raised questions that never got answered. For instance, several fans of “KUWTK” pointed out that the show ended with the sisters agreeing to stop their reality TV reign. As a result, those fans felt baffled that the Kardashian family went from sobbing goodbye to wanting to return within weeks! “Have to admit I’m curious about this whole thing,” tweeted one follower. “The whole family was all in tears when they were leaving @RyanSeacrest and the network and made it seem like they were done with the whole thing. But now this?!”
