‘All’s Fair’ Review: Kim Kardashian Is an Appropriately Wooden Lead for Ryan Murphy’s Empty, Unforgivably Dull Hulu Drama

‘All’s Fair’ Review: Kim Kardashian’s Flat Performance in Ryan Murphy’s Hollow Hulu Drama

Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson, Teyana Taylor, and Niecy Nash-Betts star in a Hulu drama centered on an all-female law firm handling divorce cases exclusively for women. Kim Kardashian leads the cast in Ryan Murphy’s glossy yet emotionally empty legal series.

Kardashian, known from American Horror Story: Delicate, delivers a performance that feels rigid and devoid of sincerity. Surrounded by seasoned talent, her lack of depth becomes even more apparent. The script mirrors her delivery — polished on the surface but empty beneath.

“The show seems to want not to be watched so much as mined for viral bits and pieces.”

Kardashian’s casting makes sense only in that her fame guarantees attention, even if it adds little artistic value. The other actresses, each attempting to elevate the material, end up trapped in scenes that celebrate wealth more than character or story.

Ultimately, the series leaves viewers indifferent, offering glossy visuals but little substance. It highlights the imbalance between its talented ensemble and the uninspired writing that limits them.

Author’s Summary

Hulu’s All’s Fair benefits from a stellar cast but suffers from lifeless writing and Kim Kardashian’s emotionless performance, resulting in a stylish yet hollow drama.
