The defendant? Kim Kardashian’s campy legal drama “All’s Fair.” The prosecution? Every critic in Hollywood. The verdict? Renewed for a second season.
“All’s Fair” is set to begin production on its second season in spring 2026 – which means Kardashian and the rest of the cast have a brief recess before they’ll once again argue their case in front of the jury of public opinion.
Despite scathing takedowns from countless industry pundits, and an abysmal 3-percent “fresh” rating on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, “All’s Fair” is coming back for more.

(The show previously had an astonishingly bad 0-percent fresh rating, Page Six reported, but it jumped three percentage points. How’s that for a closing argument?)
But, critics be damned, the series is a smash among viewers. In fact, it’s one of Hulu’s biggest hits to date.
“All’s Fair” marks Hulu Originals’ largest scripted series premiere in three years, racking up 3.2 million views globally in its first three days on the platform.
“All’s Fair” follows Kardashian as Allura Grant, a powerful LA lawyer who navigates scandal both in the courtroom and her personal life as she leads an all-female firm of divorce attorneys.
Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson, Niecy Nash-Betts and Teyana Taylor also star in the series from “Glee” and “American Horror Story” guru Ryan Murphy.

The Hollywood Reporter’s Angie Han torched “All’s Fair” in her review by writing, “Kardashian’s performance, stiff and affectless without a single authentic note, is exactly what the writing, also stiff and affectless without a single authentic note, merits.”

Slate’s David Mack likened Kardashian’s acting to “a piece of drywall,” and “a haunted doll experiencing life for the first time.”
The cast have taken such jabs in stride, though: Glenn Close shared a cheeky illustration of the cast enjoying “critic bunny stew” — a nod to her iconic “Fatal Attraction” scene in which she vindictively boiled that bunny rabbit.
Close also defended Kardashian’s work ethic in a recent interview with Variety, saying, “What surprised me was Kim’s seriousness of intent… She always knew her lines. She never was late. She always was prepared. She had no pretensions that she was a great actress, but she was smart enough to have people around her who she could learn from. If she was a big ego or what I call a ‘life-is-too-short person,’ I would have been unhappy, but she’s not.”
For her part, Kardashian humorously hit back at the critics, too, by sharing several negative reviews and memes about the series in an Instagram post with the caption, “Have you tuned in to the most critically acclaimed show of the year!?!?!?”
