New subscribers can watch The Kardashians season five’s first episode for free with a 30-day trial to Hulu.

In season five, Lemme and Poosh founder Kourtney Kardashian Barker prepares to welcome her baby with husband Travis Barker, Skims creator Kim Kardashian enters her “actress era,” and Kris Jenner is diagnosed with “a little tumor.”

“Last year we made a commitment to ourselves to slow down, take some time off to be present in the moment,” says Kim in the season five trailer.

Khloé’s response? “Have the Kardashians slowed down? No.”

The entrepreneurial family ended their E! series, Keeping Up With the Kardashians, in 2020 after 20 seasons, and signed a multi-year deal with Disney not long after. Since the debut of KUWTK in 2007, the family has spawned an empire that spans fashion, beauty and more, including Kylie’s just-launched Sprinter canned vodka soda brand and her empire of beauty lines; Kim’s Skims loungewear and underpinnings brand (which recently teamed with the rising stars of the WNBA) and SKKN skin care; Khloé’s Good American denim and basics brand, Kourtney’s lifestyle website Poosh; and Kendall’s 818 tequila, among others.
