Looks like viewers don't care about Lauren Conrad's replacement on The Hills, Kristin Cavallari.

Ratings for the MTV reality show's Tuesday premiere plummeted about 30 percent, Broadcasting and Cable reported. Just 2.1 million people watched compared with the 3 million who tuned in for the last season premiere in April of this year.

In contrast, 3.5 million watched the August 2008 premiere.

Despite the decline, MTV points out that The Hills is the most-watched show in its time slot for the age 12 to 34 age demographic.

But ratings are up 43 percent for The City, which chronicles former Hills star Whitney Port as she establishes her life in New York City.

Just over 2 million viewers watched The City's premiere, up from 1.6 million who tuned in for the show's debut.

    I never want to watch any movies. I don't donate. No pics. I really want to be left alone. I want nothing said about my personal life. It's my business who my women are. They're white. I should get back to work. People are so gay. Leave me be. People need to get high or something. They want me to say orbe a certain way. Doors right there. Oh, they weren't invited. A

    I admit to watching the hills when lauren was on. Yeah it was stupid & really pointless but it was a half hour of guilty pleasure after gossip girl. The rest of the week I do intelligent stuff. This season though I totally forgot about it & then when i DID catch a rerun of it I was embarrassed in front of my dog. they're such idiots and are so nasally & whiny! esp K
