'KUWTK' Season 11 Premiere Drops in Ratings- Kourtney, Kim & Khloe Losing Audience?

There is no denying that Keeping Up With the Kardashians is a reality TV staple and one that has definitely shaped the modern day docuseries, but after having been entertaining the masses for the last decade or so, is American finally sick up keeping up with Kourtney, Kim, and Khloe? Well it seems that way, as the ratings for the E! series have been steadily falling in the show's most recent episodes, for season 11, which premiered earlier this month.

According to Radar Online, the numbers are very miniscule to what they were when the series was in its youth. The news site is reporting that during the show's fifth season premiere that the numbers were in the 4.6 million range, in comparison to the 11^th season that pulled in just 1.55 million viewers.

While it is a fraction of what the show used to draw, the numbers are still good for a reality series.

It was also Kim's pregnancy during the show's 8^th season that helped to bring in the numbers as 3.2 million viewers tuned in to watch Mrs. West reveal the she was pregnant with her first child.

This is the show's lowest season premiere to date, losing a whole million viewers as opposed to season 9 and 10, which had 2.56 million and 2.55 million people respectively tune in.

It was even reported by The Inquistr that fake storylines might also be used on the series as a way to drum up some more viewers. The site speculated that Kim was faking her pregnancy issues to beef up the drama on the show.

"Kim was just talking with a group of friends about her pregnancy and she said everything is going really well," an insider explained. "She didn't say anything about a crisis pregnancy. Some people think she could be exaggerating the situation to the public for drama."

Another storyline that could help ratings are Tyga and Kylie Jenners relationship, according to Hollywood Life.

"All her life, Kylie's been groomed for stardom and Kris knows it. She thinks Kylie's relationship with Tyga could quite possibly pull in more viewers and be bigger than Kim and Kanye's wedding," the source reported to the site. "If that were to happen, Kris would flirt with the idea of having Kylie and Tyga do their own show, if they're willing"
