The show follows the Kardashian clan, led by mother and manager Kris Jenner, through their family fights, personal romances and various business ventures. Their blended family includes Kris' children with Robert Kardashian, best known for his friendship and legal support to O.J. Simpson during his murder trial: Kourtney, Kim, Khloe and Rob. Kris also has two daughters, Kendall and Kylie, with Bruce Jenner, former track and field Olympic champion.
Middle sister Kim anchors the program as the most attention-getting member of the family due to her infamous sex tape, debates about appearing in Playboy magazine and romances with football star Reggie Bush and basketball player Kris Humphries. Eldest sister Kourtney brings the relationship drama with her baby daddy Scott Disick, but also supplies an adorable child, Mason, and another baby on the way. Kourtney often provides the voice of reason in the dramatic family. The other siblings receive less screen time, but have managed to parlay the family name into career opportunities. The two younger daughters now begun to work as fashion models, while Rob, the only brother, has established his own entertainment career.
Like many reality programs, "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" follows the family as they shop, lunch, run their businesses and enjoy spa treatments. As with most families, tensions brew, fights explode and are then dissected by the family. Though they enjoy a uniquely luxurious Southern California lifestyle, their interactions have the same family dynamics of their audience, which is why the show remains a ratings hit and a source of tabloid gossip.
