Kardashians

Every mention, in time. Each mark is a day — taller means more that day — and links to the moment.

Tim’s take

He mostly uses the Kardashians as a stand-in for wealth that answers to nothing, worth "a hundred billion dollars" for lip gloss while ordinary people ration insulin, or flying private jets while people watch from tents 33:48 1:06:11. He tosses them in next to Trump and Billie Eilish as proof that talent no longer matters at all 25:52. Elsewhere he sounds admiring, calling them the closest thing America has to a monarchy and half-joking about electing Kris Jenner mayor 1:30:27. He credits the early seasons with being genuinely good television — a family that treats each other like brands and lawyers up when needed — better than anything that copied them since 9:58. Later he flips to fatigue, saying they're too famous to have fans anymore, just fixtures nobody actually likes 20:11, and recalling a restaurant where nobody looked up as they walked past 1:09:33.
