Kardashians Season 7 premieres on Hulu with Rob's on-camera return

The Kardashian Jenner family returned to screens on Thursday, Oct. 23, as Season 7 of The Kardashians premiered on Hulu, bringing new episodes in a weekly release and several headline-making moments including the on-camera return of Rob Kardashian and courtroom and family scenes involving Kim Kardashian. The episode, titled Feels Like the Old Days, alternates between public legal developments and private family conversations filmed at Kris Jenner's Hidden Hills home.

The premiere shows Kris Jenner gathering the family for a final celebration at the home before it is sold, where Rob, who largely stepped away from televised life in 2016, appears on camera for the first time in years. Rob is not miked or shown in confessional interviews, but he is seen interacting with his mother, sisters and daughter. In confessional segments, Khloé Kardashian praised the cameo and sought to counter online speculation about Rob's life, saying, "Rob is doing well. He's alive." Kourtney Kardashian described him as "super sweet" and "the funniest person I know," while Kim said she missed his presence on the show and that having him back regularly would be "great."
