Khloé’s brand new talk show premiered on Jan. 20 and featured an appearance by her younger sister, Kendall Jenner, Snoop Dogg, Brandi Glanville, Kym Whitley and Aisha Tyler.
Those tuning in for future episodes should expect more of the same, as Kocktails with Khloé is expected to gather family, friends and celebrities around Khloé’s table so that she can gab with guests about celebrity gossip, pop culture, fashion, their lives, and whatever else Khloé feels like talking about. Currently, the show is scheduled to run for eight one-hour episodes.
Of course, Khloé Kardashian is no stranger to TV, as the reality star has regularly appeared on Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Khloé & Lamar, and Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami.

The news of outstanding ratings should come as a relief to Kardashian who previously revealed she was “so scared” to do something she’d never done before. Find out more about Khloé Kardashian’s plans for her talk show in the video below. [Article continues below the video.]
The positive news also comes on the heels of a tough year for Khloé. During her Kocktails with Khloé media tour, the 31-year-old talk show host spoke extensively about the difficulties she and members of her family faced in 2015, especially where the alleged drug overdose with her estranged husband was concerned.
In October, Lamar Odom was found unconscious in a Las Vegas-area brothel after he allegedly took a dangerous mixture of cocaine and a sexual performance-enhancing drug. According to the 911 call, Odom was foaming at the mouth and had blood streaming from his nose. He was immediately airlifted to a nearby hospital. Khloé Kardashian has assumed control of his care ever since.
At the time of his hospitalization, Khloé and Lamar were in the final stages of divorce proceedings, but the KUWTK star opted to withdraw her divorce petition in an effort to keep things as stable as possible for Lamar, who, in addition to many cognitive functions, had to learn how to walk again.
Odom was recently released from a Los Angeles hospital and has since been seen in public, and rumors have even mentioned that the former Los Angeles Laker may be living with Khloé again as he continues his rehabilitation.
On the next Keeping Up With the Kardashians episode, viewers will have the opportunity to live the entire situation again as they watch Khloé Kardashian and her family learn of Lamar Odom’s serious condition.
During her media tour, Khloé spoke about the situation involving Lamar, and on Monday she talked to Ellen DeGeneres to share that Lamar’s short-term memory still isn’t perfect.
“His long-term memory is great. His short-term memory isn’t so good, but I mean if I met someone earlier today I probably wouldn’t remember either so I mean that’s understandable. But he’s great.”
While on Good Morning America last week, Khloé admitted that she still loves Lamar — which she has done all along — but she said that a romantic relationship simply isn’t a possibility at this point.
“I do believe that we’re soul mates but…that’s not even where my head is at. I think people, they don’t understand the severity of everything. It’s all about his health and my happiness and his happiness. And right now those are two individual things.”
Khloé’s relationship with Lamar has been the subject of speculation and the fodder for headlines for many months, but she has yet to say whether she’ll address the situation on any of her upcoming Kocktails with Khloé shows. Fans will simply have to tune in and find out.
