Kim Kardashian has responded to scathing critic reviews of her new Disney+ series All's Fair with a humorous Instagram post highlighting fan enthusiasm. The legal drama, which premiered on November 4, has a 5% Rotten Tomatoes score from critics but a 66% audience approval and is currently the most-watched title on the platform worldwide. Starring as a divorce lawyer, Kardashian reunites with Ryan Murphy, the show's co-creator.
Overview
All's Fair follows Allura Grant, a high-profile divorce lawyer played by Kim Kardashian, who joins an all-female legal practice in Los Angeles. Co-created by Ryan Murphy, Joe Baken, and Jon Robin Baitz, the series features a star-studded cast including Sarah Paulson, Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, Niecy Nash-Betts, and Teyana Taylor. It marks Kardashian's second acting collaboration with Murphy following her role as a publicist in the 12th season of American Horror Story: Delicate in 2023, which earned her positive reviews.
Critical Reception
The show premiered on Hulu in the US and Disney+ internationally on November 4, 2025, and quickly drew harsh criticism. The Guardian called it 'so awful, it feels almost contemptuous,' while The Times declared it 'may be the worst TV drama ever,' giving it zero stars. Variety's Alison Herman described it as a 'clumsy, condescending take on rah-rah girlboss feminism,' and The Hollywood Reporter labeled it an 'empty, unforgivably dull drama' with Kardashian as an 'appropriately wooden lead.' The Huffington Post noted it was 'torn apart' by reviewers, some awarding zero out of five. On Rotten Tomatoes, it holds a 5% critics' score but 66% from audiences.
Kardashian's Response
On November 7, Kardashian posted on Instagram to her 354 million followers, sarcastically captioning: 'Have you tuned in to the most critically acclaimed show of the year!?!?!? All's Fair streaming now.' She shared screenshots of fan posts on X (formerly Twitter) that embraced the backlash, including one saying, '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.' Another quipped, 'Critics realizing their reviews of All's Fair ended up making people watch and love the show.' A third joked, 'All's Fair dares to ask the question "Does a show need to be good?" & the answer is no, it doesn't... Amazeballs.'
Streaming Success
Despite the reviews, the series has topped Disney+ charts globally, ranking first in 28 countries including the US, as shown in a screenshot Kardashian shared from the platform.
