In case you thought -- or hoped -- that the Kardashians's time in the spotlight was coming to an end, think again. Someone is apparently still watching and people must still be super invested in the family that has become a household name because E! just inked a $100 million deal to keep them from moving on. This means that viewers can count on four more years of Keeping Up with the Kardashians as well as all of the other offshoot reality shows.

So many negative things have been said about official family momager Kris Jenner, but you have got to hand it to her: This woman has managed to keep this family paid in spite of having limited talent for the better part of a decade. She has been brilliant when it comes to capitalizing on every life situation that her large family has faced since 2007.

She took the instant notoriety that went with Kim Kardashian's sex tape and turned it into a thriving family business that has produced a reality series that has shown three huge weddings, four pregnancies, numerous family vacations and all the dysfunction that she could conjure up.

This new deal will keep Kris, Kylie and Kendall Jenner on air as well as Kim, Khloé and Kourtney Kardashian still front and center. Bruce Jenner is officially out of the mix, which was expected. We already knew Season 10 of Keeping Up with the Kardashians will be leading to his own docuseries, also on E!.

Are you surprised the network locked the family in for four more years? Does that sound excessive to you or do you think Jenner will create enough content to keep the reality franchise rolling? Tell us your thoughts in the comments section below.
