Ryan Murphys latest legal drama Alls Fair debuted on Hulu Tuesday, and the cast and crew behind the show may not think its less-than-shining reviews are all that fair.

The series centers around a group of female divorce lawyers who leave their previous firm to create their own woman-only practice. Alls Fair certainly sports a star-studded slate, with Kim Kardashian, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor, Matthew Noszka, Sarah Paulson and Glenn Close making up the cast.

Despite an enticing list of stars, critics have not been too fond of the series. As of mid-day Tuesday, the series had a zero percent critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Below, read what critics are saying about Murphys Alls Fair.

The Hollywood Reporters TV critic Angie Han called the series brain dead and further wrote in her review, The drama generally falls flat, too, at delivering the sort of watercooler or to put it in more 2025 terms, TikTok-friendly moments it seems reverse-engineered to create. Its not for a lack of wild overreactions These characters are so thin, their storylines so flimsy and their motives so underbaked that theres no recognizable emotion underlying any of it, and thus no feeling to be provoked by watching it.

Han additionally wrote that Kardashians performance, stiff and affectless without a single authentic note, is exactly what the writing, also stiff and affectless without a single authentic note, merits. Her very presence, which succeeds at generating buzz and not much else, feels fitting for a show that seems to want not to be watched so much as mined for viral bits and pieces.

Lucy Mangan of The Guardian wrote, I did not know it was still possible to make television this bad. I assumed that there was some sort of baseline, some inescapable bedrock knowledge of how to do it that now prevents any entry into the art form from falling below a certain standard. But I was wrong. The new series from Ryan Murphy, Alls Fair starring Kim Kardashian, Naomi Watts and Niecy Nash as the founders of an all-female law firm delivering divorce-y justice to incredibly rich but slightly unlucky women under the azure skies of California is terrible. Fascinatingly, incomprehensibly, existentially terrible.

The Daily Telegraphs Ed Power gave Alls Fair a one star rating, critiquing Murphy in his review. Ryan Murphy is the high priest of tacky, tasteless television, and this year he has outdone himself with a show of mind-bending horror sure to trigger nightmares in the unsuspecting viewer, he wrote.

The Times Ben Dowell similarly condemned Kardashians performance, writing that the reality star must have quite a healthy ego yourself to star in what may well be the worst television drama ever made. He continued, Because Alls Fair (Disney+) is so bad, its not even enjoyably so. It thinks its a feminist fable about spirited lawyers getting their own back on cruel rich men but is in fact a tacky and revolting monument to the same greed, vanity and avarice it supposedly targets. All scripted, it feels, by a toddler who couldnt write bum on a wall.

USA Todays Kelly Lawler called the Hulu drama the worst TV show of the year.

Fair (now streaming, [one star] out of four) doesnt have a single one of those redeeming qualities. An embarrassingly terrible show with scripts worse than what Chat GPT was spitting out two years ago and acting worse than your local Christmas pageant, Fair is an unmitigated disaster of such outlandish proportions its a wonder not a single person in the production process didnt stop and ask What are we doing here? to their fellows, Lawler continued. And lest you think that it is the kind of bad that is messy and fun and ripe for hate-watching, I will disappoint you further: Its so stilted, artificial and awkward not even a glass of wine and leftover Halloween candy can make it remotely enjoyable to view.
