‘I Am Cait’ Season 2 Canceled: Caitlyn Jenner Blames Kris Jenner For Low Ratings, Disses KUWTK?
Caitlyn Jenner’s reality TV series, I am Cait, is reportedly about to get canceled after Season 2. A new report claimed that viewers have started to lose interest in Caitlyn and her adventure with her transgender friends. An insider also speculated that Kris Jenner may have had “sabotaged” Caitlyn’s new reality show.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the premiere of I am Cait Season 2 only brought in 745,000 viewers and a 0.3 rating among adults 18-49, which is an all-time low for the show. In comparison, the Season 1 finale drew 500,000 viewers and the series launch was watched by nearly 2 million viewers.
According to Starpulse, the viewers were possibly losing interest in Caitlyn Jenner‘s life. When Kris Jenner’s former husband came out, she definitely received a lot of support from social media. Unfortunately, as time passed by, it seemed like even her avid supporters had grown tired of her show, chalking it up as nothing but a Keeping up with the Kardashians spinoff. The publication pointed out that even seeing Caitlyn share some of her tender and candid moments may not be enough to keep the fans’ interest.
With the ratings consistently dropping, it did not come as a surprise that multiple sources have started to speculate that I am Cait is about to get canceled after Season 2. An insider told Naughty Gossip that Caitlyn Jenner is starting to blame herself for the show’s impending cancellation.
When I am Cait first started, Jenner reportedly believed that it would be much bigger than Keeping up with the Kardashians. Unfortunately, the series is starting to become a disappointment. An insider claims that Caitlyn is talking to E!, trying to drum up promotion for her show.
The reality star will reportedly do whatever it takes just to keep I am Cait on air for as long as possible. Caitlyn Jenner is aware that if she does not act on it soon enough, the series will definitely get canceled.
“She really thought this show was bigger than The Kardashian’s and thought it would run for 8-10 years. At the moment, she is taking no responsibility. She has a huge ego and cannot understand that some people just do not like her and her political views. If the numbers drop again, the show will be canceled.”
In the event that Caitlyn Jenner and E! will not be able to reach an agreement, Starpulse pointed out that perhaps it was time to leave reality television for good. As she has been part of Keeping up with the Kardashians for so long, maybe it would be best to live a life away from the limelight for once.
Meanwhile, Radar Online speculated that Kris Jenner may have just “sabotaged” the ratings of I am Cait Season 2. The outlet pointed out that Kris’ recent interview on Ellen may have been one of the reasons for the decrease in ratings.
Speaking to Ellen, Kris said that she found it “confusing” that Caitlyn was suddenly open to dating men. In the premiere episode of I am Cait Season 2, Caitlyn said that admitted that she does not see herself “dating women in the future.”
“It’s confusing because for as long as you know or anyone knows he was only with women,” Ellen pointed out.
In spite of their failed marriage, Kris said that all she wanted is for Caitlyn to be “happy and comfortable” in her own skin. While the momager tried to express sympathy for her ex, Radar Online speculated that her “negative comments” about I am Cait may have driven the show’s ratings down.
“It’s like the mourning of somebody that you feel you are never going to really see or be with again,” Kris said about her relationship with Bruce.
