The Girls: A Khloé Kardashian Project, which premiered on Aug. 21 on Hulu and Disney+, offers a behind-the-scenes look at Khloé Kardashian’s circle of friends as they balance motherhood, relationships, careers, and the pressures of public life. The six-woman cast includes Natalie Halcro, Khadijah Haqq, Malika Haqq, Yris Palmer, Olivia Pierson, and Nicole Williams English — Kardashian serves as executive producer and narrator but intentionally avoids centering herself as a main castmember.

A New Kind of Reality Format

The series, described as a blend of Keeping Up With the Kardashians and The Real Housewives, follows the women through personal milestones and conflicts. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Kardashian explains that the decision to spotlight her friends came from their comfort in front of the camera and the fact that they genuinely like each other, at least “some more than others, as I realized later.” The show features six episodes, each roughly 45 minutes long, and all dropped at once on premiere day.

Khadijah and Malika Haqq are longtime friends of Kardashian, while Williams English, Pierson, and Halcro previously co-starred on E!’s WAGS — Yris Palmer, however, has no prior reality TV experience. The series explores themes of friendship, business, and relationships, with Kardashian at times stepping into a more visible role onscreen, but always with the goal of not making it feel like another Kardashian spinoff.

How to Watch and Audience Expectations

The Girls is available on Hulu and Disney+ via a standalone subscription or through DirecTV’s Signature Packages, which include the Hulu/Disney+ bundle and offer a five-day free trial. The Hollywood Reporter notes that the show’s launch was accompanied by exclusive details about the upcoming eighth season of The Kardashians, which will premiere in October. The cast is described as having a complicated history with one another, and Kardashian acts as the link between them onscreen.

Revista OHLALÁ! describes the show as a “new proposal centered on friendship, motherhood, bonds, and the challenges of living under public scrutiny.” The series, which premiered at 12 a.m. PT on Aug. 21, gives viewers a glimpse into both the glamorous and behind-the-scenes aspects of the women’s lives; this includes social events, conversations, and personal moments that test their long-standing friendships.

A Shift in Focus for Kardashian

Khloé Kardashian has moved beyond centering her own life in television and instead turned her attention to her closest friends, though Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, she emphasized that she did not want the show to feel like a typical reality series. The show’s structure allows the cast’s personal drama and relationships to take center stage, with Kardashian helping introduce the group but stepping back from being the focus of the narrative.

She also spoke about the unexpected drama that emerged during filming, which surprised her, and the challenge of balancing being both a friend and a producer. The show’s format suggests a more collaborative dynamic than past projects, with the cast members’ stories being told through their own perspectives rather than through Kardashian’s.
