Keeping up with the Kardashians is being removed from Peacock without warning, giving fans less than 24 hours to stream all 20 seasons before it disappears.
Fans of Keeping Up With the Kardashians are scrambling after discovering that the long-running reality series is being quietly removed from Peacock with little notice.
Subscribers noticed on Tuesday that a countdown timer appeared on episode previews within the Peacock mobile app, signaling that the show would no longer be available after December 30. The notification indicated viewers had less than 24 hours to watch the full series before it is removed from the platform entirely.
The abrupt change came as a surprise to many fans, especially since Peacock has not issued a formal announcement confirming the removal. The disappearance means that all 20 seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, which originally aired on E! from 2007 to 2021, will no longer be part of Peacock’s TV offerings.
Once removed, the reality series will only be available on YouTube TV. While Peacock will lose the original show, several Kardashian-related titles remain on the service. Spin-offs tied to the franchise are still available, and The Kardashians, which recently wrapped its seventh season, continues to stream on Hulu.
The removal sparked an immediate backlash online, particularly on Reddit, where longtime viewers shared frustration and disappointment. Many described the show as a “comfort” watch and said it was the primary reason they subscribed to Peacock in the first place.
“This is my background comfort show. It can’t leave!” one fan wrote. Another added, “I only pay for Peacock for KUWTK.” Several commenters went further, stating they planned to cancel their subscriptions following the show’s exit. One user claimed they had already unsubscribed, while others warned they would do the same once the series was gone.
Despite the strong reaction from fans, Peacock has yet to publicly clarify why Keeping Up With the Kardashians is being removed or whether it could return in the future. For now, viewers hoping to revisit the Kardashian–Jenner family’s early reality TV years are left with only hours to binge the series before it disappears from the streamer.
