Kim Kardashian's 'All's Fair' Thrives Amid Brutal Review

Despite the complaints, scathing criticisms, and memes, Kim Kardashian will be returning to fans' screens for the second season of "All's Fair."

The "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" alum became the internet's latest punching bag following the release of her new Hulu series. Although critics and several fans agreed that she had no talent as an actress, the streaming platform disagreed.

Kim Kardashian stars as Allura Grant, a renowned attorney in Los Angeles who leads an all-female firm of divorce lawyers. The cast continues with celebrated actresses Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson, Niecy Nash-Betts, and Teyana Taylor.

Hulu broke the news on its "All's Fair" X page, confirming that its legal drama series has been picked up for a second season to critics' dismay. "Checkmate. All's Fair is coming back for Season 2! Production begins in Spring 2026. Let's do this!" the caption read.

They teased the new season with a short clip that got fans excited and left critics very displeased. One supporter declared, "I AM SO SEATED OH MY GOD." Another echoed similar sentiments, writing, "Good! I've actually quite enjoyed it. It's not too hard on the emotions."

"Yes, sis! F-ck the critics, give the fans what they want!" a fan added. On the other hand, critics weren't excited for a new season, with someone implying the show would reach more audiences if another actress replaced Kim. "Waste of money, how did Glenn Close agree to be part of this crap?" another displeased fan wondered.

Weeks before Hulu announced the second season of its legal drama series, Kim dropped a classy response to the widespread criticisms. The Blast covered the story, reporting that she shared a carousel of images on Instagram alongside the caption:

"Have you tuned in to the most critically acclaimed show of the year!?!?!?"

The images Kim shared featured the brutal reviews "All's Fair" had generated online, particularly those disappointed in her acting. Fans applauded Kim's reaction to the criticisms, with many assuring her that they loved the show. Some even vowed to stream it thanks to her classy response.

The show initially had a 0% critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which has since gone up to 3%. TV critic Angie Han slammed Kim's performance as "stiff and affectless without a single authentic note." Lucy Mangan of The Guardian echoed similar sentiments, calling the show "existentially terrible."

The legal drama series reportedly came into fruition after Disney Entertainment Co-Chairman Dana Walden introduced Ryan Murphy to Kim's mom, Kris Jenner. They linked up during dinner, where Murphy dropped a reality show pitch.

However, Kris suggested that he write a scripted role for Kim, and they both decided it should be a divorce attorney. Murphy allegedly believed the socialite wouldn't be interested in the show, but she surprised him with her eager agreement.

When asked why, Kim said, "Because it's iconic and I like iconic sh-t." Murphy claimed the reality TV star's name played a significant role in motivating the other cast members to join, as they allegedly didn't read the script and said yes when they heard it was a legal drama featuring Kim.

When critics weren't attacking Kim for her performance, they criticized her wardrobe in the legal drama. She recently sparked mixed reactions after a luxury expert, Daniel Wesson, revealed the Birkin bag she carried on the show was made from an elephant's skin.

Wesson explained in the post's caption that Hermès no longer used elephant leather to produce their luxury bags. Nonetheless, they made infamous Birkins from an elephant's hide in the 80s following a custom order from a client who brought in the leather from a hunting safari.

The revelation left fans divided, with some appalled while others believed it wasn't a big deal, as the damage had already been done. The critics' list included Ireland Baldwin, who slammed Kim on her Instagram Story. A Redditor reposted her words, which read:

"This is so disgusting and shameful. I don't understand how these people are supported the way they are."

The "All's Fair" criticisms aren't the only challenges Kim has faced this month, as she failed the bar exam. The Blast reported that she addressed her failure in a TikTok post while giving fans a glimpse at her mom's star-studded 70th birthday celebration.

In the clip, Kim revealed that at least four psychics had claimed she would pass the bar exams, assuring her that she had no reason to worry. Contrary to their predictions, she failed, leading to her immediate disbelief in their alleged powers.2s

Kim advised fans not to trust psychics, declaring, "They're all full pathological liars." Her words did not resonate with many, who called her out for trusting supernatural forces rather than studying like other aspiring attorneys.
