E! has finally set a date for the return of the reality series that follows the everyday lives of the Kardashian family.  Keeping Up with the Kardashians, now in its second season, is scheduled to air on Sunday, March 9 at 10/9c.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians has regularly won its Sunday 10:30/9:30c time period among women 18-34 during its pilot season, which gave the network enough reason to renew the reality series for yet another run.  Fans can look forward to eight new episodes, kicking off with its premiere installment called “Kim Becomes a Diva.”

"The buzz surrounding the series is huge, and viewers have clearly fallen for the Kardashians," Lisa Berger, E!'s executive vice president of programming and development, said in a statement.

Aside from Kim Kardashian, who has made the transition from socialite to reality TV starlet, the show also features her older sister Kourtney Kardashian, her younger sister Khloe Kardashian, her brother Robert Kardashian, her 12-year-old stepsister Kendall Jenner, her 10-year-old stepsister Kylie Jenner, her mother Kris Jenner, and her stepfather Bruce Jenner.

Not much has been revealed about the upcoming season but many fans are expecting season 2 to feature a bunch of celebrity guests given that the first season had been graced by America's Next Top Model host Tyra Banks, fashion designer Ashley Leigh, Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and The Girls Next Doors' Holly Madison and Kendra Wilkinson, just to name a few.

Keeping Up with the Kardashians is a production of The Simple Life and The Real World producers Bunim-Murray Productions, as well as American Idol host Ryan Seacrest's Ryan Seacrest Productions.

"Seacrest and Bunim-Murray's unique ability to capture this family's one-of-a-kind dynamics and hilarious antics has made the series a fantastic addition to our prime-time lineup," said Berger. "We're delighted to announce a second season."
