Recap: A New Perspective in New Orleans
In tonight’s episode, Kim and sisters Khloe and Kourtney traveled to New Orleans to help promote/serve as eye candy for a celebrity pool tournament organized by Kim’s own beau, Reggie Bush, to raise money for those affected by Hurricane Katrina. When the girls hear they’re invited to New Orleans, they’re (of course) super-excited to party in the Big Easy. When they get there, however, a trip around the area affected by Katrina opens their eyes to the real tragedy and what little has actually been done for the families in the area.

Kim and kin choose one FEMA-trailor dwelling family basically at random, then adopt them as a pet project. They even go so far as to get furniture donated to the family, to be placed on lay-away until they get what they really need: a new home.

Meanwhile, back in Calabasas, Bruce decides to use a weekend with no kids around to chase his wife around the house naked (yuck). Unfortunately for him (but fortunately for those of us who gag at the thought of Kris Jenner’s barely-blurred naked form scuttling across our TV screens), Kris’s cousin from out-of-town conveniently visits and creates the only “drama” in this saccharine episode.

The, Like, Super Opinion Thing
Call me insensitive, call me a horrible person, but this has been, by far, my least favorite episode of the Kardashians yet. While it’s great that the sisters have finally used their meager fame to do some good, it’s not what I want to see on KUWtK. I stay glued to the Kardashian sisters’ lives for the drama, not do-gooderness… if I wanted that, I’d watch Ty Pennington build someone a house or Oprah’s Big Give, not the personified vapidity that are the Kardashian sisters.

The episode moved slowly and felt like a nice PR package put together to appease some bitchy brunettes after the Kardashian Civil War cast them in a negative light. Kim’s speeches about being “changed” by the experience seemed scripted and Khloe and Kourtney barely spoke at all. The only real emotion in the episode came from the family the girls made a project of (unless of course you count Bruce Jenner’s disappointment at his weekend of hot sex with Kris being ruined, but really, let’s hope that was faked).
