With his first post back in 2015, "Kirby Jenner", the hidden child of Kardashian / Jenner family when viral in memes as he photoshopped himself into the families instagrams and other social interactions. Using off shoots from the latest Kardashian reality series and some access to the family itself (mostly Kylie), this short 8 episode, 5-7 minute mini-series follows Kirby and his shenanigans as he tries to throw a party for his mom. A big joke, some of its funny, however because the series has the oversight and blessing of the Kardashian family it means the show stays relatively lighthearted and tends to stay in the parody style of series rather than any sort of real, hard hitting satire. I think this would have done better with some real plots ands a 22 minute format but I'm sure the 5 min episodes will work out for Quibi in the end. If you love the Kardashians I guess give it a go?

Don't waste your time or money. Watch something of substance instead. So many actually good shows out there. The Good Place is a good one.
Yeah, the whole crew including the kardashians and Jenners flopped with this one.

So this show first of all seems like a strange guy just saying lame jokes pretending to be part of a family that he isn't - and it seems like the Kar Jenner's don't even so much enjoy being around him since they literally say less than two words at a time and seem distant to him , almost like they're just obligated by a contract and wanting to seem like they can be relatable through letting someone pretend to be their sibling. Also Quibi is a terrible service and these 6 minute shows of 8 episodes basically lends you one 40 minute show at 9.99 $ monthly. I don't see this show nor the service it's on lasting through the year.
I can and have written multiple works better than this and have the proof. So the one good thing is if garbage like this makes it , I should be good to go.

It's great. I was skeptical of the format at first, but they really pull it off. All of the interactions highlight the banality and ridiculousness of the concerns and dramas of celebrity reality TV, using perhaps the most consequential subjects for the genre. I highly recommend.

Ignore the low ratings by people who didn't even bother to watch the show or who are too inept to realize that it's a parody. This show is hilarious and incredibly creative! I wasn't familiar with the lead prior to this Quibi show, but apparently he'd been editing himself into Kardashian photos and videos for five years, amassing over a million followers and garnering the attention of Kris and Kendall Jenner, who signed on to executive produce the show. He primarily used several seasons of old KUWTK footage mixed with some new footage of himself with and without Kendall and others to create a show with entirely new story lines in bite-sized episodes.

This show is HILARIOUS! I've never seen a show with the Kardashian's before. But, this is hysterical. Perfectly ridiculous humor. So worth the time to watch if you want this kind of laugh.
This is the most amazing storytelling/technical feat of modern television. SO FUNNY, and so on point about parodying classic reality show tropes. And the wardrobe is next level!!!! Best thing on Quibi by far. I hope Quibi survives just so I can see more Kirby Jenner!
This show was sooo funny, some of these lines were killer. It's such a funny way of lampooning the family - very well done. It's the absurd situations and lines from the family that really got me. Even better that it's all real footage just spliced together. I genuinely need a season two, this ended on a cliffhanger!!
