The mother of four didn't give too much away when she shared the brief clip which featured a creepy rendition of "Rock-a-bye Baby" playing in the background as Emma and Kim's names flashed on screen.

Another celebrated Kim for her versatility. "Just when you think she's done it all she's back again," they wrote.

Of course, not everyone was thrilled about Kim's appearance on the series.

Some people said they wouldn't be watching this season if Kim was going to be part of the cast.

There were plenty of comments from folks who had already decided to write off Kim's performance.

"Ugh guess I'm skipping this season," one person complained.

Others criticized her ability to pull off such a nuanced role. "I know y'all remember that she can't act," one person wrote.

Another fan of the series pleaded with Kim to make sure she didn't do a bad job on the project. "Kim baby … please don't f— this up with bad acting."
