I think that's the only moment I've seen of KUWTK, too. Kendall and Kylie were screeching woo! woo! woo! in the manner of the Girls Gone Wild siren, right? That would have been 2008 (I was house sitting) and I remember there was discussion about Kris's friendship with Joe Francis.

Yes! That was it! How weird that's the only moment we've both seen. It's a moment that stuck with me. Every time I hear something about the girls or Bruce, I always flash on that scene. And, based on that scene, I figured Bruce would happily fade into the woodwork when he and Kris announced they were getting divorce. Looks like I was very wrong.

I'm surprised the family of the woman Bruce killed hasn't filed any legal action against him. I wonder if they've been paid off.

It takes awhile for cases to be built and legal action to be filed. It still very much could happen.

Anyway, Bruce seems kind of checked out--either out of exhaustion or boredom or being put into a trance by Kris, or maybe that laissez-faire that happens with some parents as they get further down the rad. *Fine. Burt, Casey, Brandon, and Brody. Didn't Brody and/or his brother Brandon make comments that after Kris married Bruce, some distance was created between Bruce and his second set of children? (It was implied that it was due to Kris.) There seems to have been a precedent for being a checked-out parent. Also, Kris seems to be the alpha partner. Maybe Bruce feels fortunate enough to have escaped his marriage and being able to embrace his true self; maybe he doesn't have enough left to fight for Kendall and Kylie. (Not justifying anything, #justsaying.) ETA: I found Kendall's "statement" odd (before Kendall denied having made it); yet another family member commenting on Bruce's alleged transition publically even though Bruce has not "come out" yet! One would figure that Bruce would ask his family and friends not to talk to the media on the record before he said anything about it first.

It could be--I really have no idea. It would be interesting to hear from Burt and Casey on the subject.

Bruce struck me as being checked out during the few minutes of KUWTK I watched several years ago when Kylie and Kendall were little girls. I think they were dancing around a stripper pole or something. He didn't just seem checked out as a father, but checked out/apathetic in general to the whole scenario playing out around him. I tried to picture my dad sitting and ignoring me playing on a stripper pole. My head exploded.

I have never watched KUWTK. So, I'm thinking the clip was shown a lot on other shows or something. Because I have a clear memory of it.

I tried to picture my dad sitting and ignoring me playing on a stripper pole. My head exploded. I don't want to minimize the setting, but I thought it was a strange scene. The kids were on a show launched by a sex tape and a butt and a fistful of vaguely memorable celebrity names, but the girls were just kind of playing on the pole--a stripper pole installed in the house, like part of the furniture, IIRC--and they were swinging around it like kids did on street poles or the poles holding up the monkey bars at the playground. They were just running around trying to make themselves dizzy and giggly, I think. Running around a stripper pole while screaming WOO WOO WOO WOO WOO but still, it had a lot of innocence to it.
