Kim Kardashian Defends 'All's Fair' Critics with Fan Support: 'The Year's Most Controversial Show'
Kim Kardashian is not letting the haters get her down. The reality star celebrated the release of her new Hulu drama, 'All's Fair', with a carousel of glamorous photos from the premiere, interspersed with several rather backhanded reviews of the Ryan Murphy series pulled from X.
"Have you tuned in to the most controversial show of the year!?!?!?" she wrote on Instagram. Kardashian's post included a screenshot of the series' 0% score on Rotten Tomatoes (that score has since increased to a whopping 5%). That 0% score was enough to get some viewers interested, however. "Immediately pressed play," a user wrote on X.
Another screenshot included in the social media post noted, "Some of the worst acting I’ve ever seen in my life alongside the most predictable storylines and the most ridiculous styling. I’m obsessed I need 14 seasons," while another user on X called Murphy "the high priest of tacky, tasteless television."
The newly released series stars Kardashian as a powerhouse divorce attorney leading an all-women law firm in California. Like most of Murphy’s series, the legal drama is a star-studded affair, featuring Niecy Nash-Betts, Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close, Naomi Watts and Teyana Taylor. But the show’s cast was seemingly not enough to save the series from its poor reception.
It looks like the show has veered right back around to "so bad it’s good" territory, similarly to 'And Just Like That' and 'Emily in Paris'. While other outlets panned the show as "clumsy, condescending girlboss fantasia" and "the worst TV show of the year," let the record show Decider remained on the right side of history.
"When you cram a show like 'All's Fair' with so many top-notch actors (and, while Kim K. isn’t exactly Watts, Nash or Close-level in the acting department, she holds her own), and then stuff each episode with cases involving huge guest stars, you can’t help but make a show watchable," Decider’s Joel Keller wrote in a review of the show. "'All's Fair' is over the top and campy as hell, but it also knows it’s both of these things, which is why the show and the cases the firm deals with are going to be fun to watch."
'All's Fair' marks Kardashian’s latest collaboration with Murphy after she appeared in 'American Horror Story: Delicate'.
'All's Fair' is streaming now on Hulu and Disney+.
