The legal drama series All's Fair, featuring Kim Kardashian in a leading role, premiered on November 4 with its first three episodes on streaming platforms. The show centers on a group of female divorce lawyers establishing their own firm in Los Angeles. Despite an ensemble cast that includes Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close, Niecy Nash, Naomi Watts, and Teyana Taylor, the series has faced severe criticism from reviewers. Co-created by Ryan Murphy, Jon Robin Baitz, and Joe Baken, the drama currently holds a dismal 6% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on 18 reviews. Critics have targeted the writing, plot development, and particularly Kardashian's acting performance. This marks Kardashian's second project with Ryan Murphy following American Horror Story season 12: Delicate. While professional reviewers have been largely negative, some viewers on social media have defended the show as campy entertainment. The series is available for viewing in India on JioHotstar.
Harsh Reviews and Mixed Audience Reactions
Professional critics delivered scathing assessments of the series. The Wrap described it as lacking the magic that once defined Murphy's work, suggesting his style has deteriorated into contempt. Sydney Morning Herald criticized Kardashian's performance as monotonal and emotionally negligent, comparing her to a void filled with product placements. The Hollywood Reporter echoed similar sentiments, calling both her acting and the writing stiff and lacking authenticity. However, social media reactions proved divided. While many users questioned Kardashian's stiff delivery and criticized the weak writing, others embraced the show's campy nature. Some defenders argued it represents high-end camp entertainment designed for specific audiences, calling for multiple additional seasons despite widespread critical disapproval of the overall quality and substance.
