While the MTV reality series, The Hills, remains the highest-rated cable show in the channel's target audience as well as the number one rated program in its time slot in that demo, its ratings are clearly slipping from last year's numbers.
It seems the addition of feisty castmate, Kristin Cavallari, wasn't enough for this season's premiere to maintain the kind of numbers brought in by last year's premiere. It's being reported that viewership was down by 30 percent compared to the prior season.
Wonder who Audrina Patridge can blame for robbing her of viewers?

Heidi looks like a hooker...do not care if this is a current trend...and all the Hermes bags in the world won't help this.

Obviously the show shouldn't continue without Lauren. The whole show was based about her life, her moving to 'the hills' and all of her friends. You can't just add Kristin and expect people to love it. Plus everyone hates Spencer and Heidi. It used to be funny how irritating they were. But now the media and public are sick of them claiming to be famous. Its still MTVs #1 show, which is sad, clearly they lost a lot of its viewers. Are they really even considered Music Television anymore?
