Critics Slam Kim Kardashian's Acting in New Ryan Murphy Drama "All's Fair"
In a scathing review, The Guardian's Lucy Mangan has given the Hulu drama "All's Fair" a 0-star rating, calling it "fascinatingly, existentially terrible." She expressed disappointment with Kim Kardashian's performance as the owner of a divorce law firm, stating that her acting is "expressionless" and "useless."
Similar sentiments have been echoed by critics from The Times of London and The Telegraph. Ben Dowell, writing for The Times, described the show as "the worst TV drama ever," blaming Ryan Murphy for its poor execution. He criticized Kardashian's portrayal of a lawyer, stating that it lacked authenticity.
The Telephraph's Ed Power has also panned the series, calling it a "crime against television" and giving it one star. He lamented that Kardashian lacks screen presence, despite her best efforts to convincingly play a character.
USA Today's Kelly Lawler has taken it upon herself to call out Kardashian's acting abilities, stating that they are "bland line readings" that fall short of the title of "actress." She also criticized the writing and scripts for being unoriginal.
However, in contrast, some critics have found value in Murphy's show. The Hollywood Reporter's Angie Han has noted the show's potential to delve into themes of feminism and social justice.
Despite its mixed reviews, "All's Fair" was released on Hulu with its first three episodes dropping on November 4th, with subsequent episodes set to release weekly on Tuesdays.
Kim Kardashian previously collaborated with Murphy in a successful episode of his horror anthology series "American Horror Story: Delicate." Her performance received praise for leaning into her Valley girl persona.

... I mean, what was she even thinking? The reviews are trash and so is the show 
. Even some of her celeb friends probably wouldn't watch this drama because it's just a mess. And don't even get me started on Ryan Murphy, he clearly messed up again 
. It's like he took all his leftover ideas from other shows and threw them into one big dumpster fire. I'm not gonna lie though, if they actually listen to some real constructive feedback from critics, they might be able to salvage this show... but probably won't 
.
what happened to kim k's acting skills?! 
i mean i know she's got a new role but honestly it sounds like the critics are being super harsh 
i love ryan murphy though he's always done such great work on american horror story 
but maybe kim just needs some more practice? 
. It's like, can't we just have a critique without resorting to savage reviews? Like, I get it, she's not an actress by training, but who cares?! 
. I mean, she's got a huge following and all, but when it comes to acting, she just doesn't bring much depth or nuance to her roles, you know? The thing is, we're used to seeing her in these more lighthearted roles, like with Kanye or whatnot, so when she steps into something more serious, it can be a bit jarring. And yeah, I can see how her performance in "All's Fair" might feel a bit... expressionless 
.
. And honestly, if anyone can make this show work, it's him! Even with Kim's acting being, shall we say, not exactly Oscar-worthy 
. She's like the ultimate example of someone who thinks they can just phone in a role and still get praised for it. And honestly, what's with the lack of chemistry between her and the rest of the cast? It's like she's just going through the motions, reciting lines without any real emotion or depth 
. i kinda get what the critics are saying though, kim k is still not my fave actress 
. maybe she should stick to what she does best, which is being herself on social media lol 
.
.
. Maybe Kim Kardashian needs more practice or direction from the writers? Maybe she was trying something new and it didn't quite work out... I don't know 
.
. I do agree with some of the criticisms about the writing and scripts being unoriginal 
. But at the same time, I think it's unfair to dismiss Kim's performance entirely 
. Now that it's out, everyone's just kinda...meh 
.
. And hey, maybe Kim K's acting isn't perfect, but I think she's still got a lot to offer as an actress... and as a celebrity, for that matter 
... and who knows, maybe Kim will surprise us and become the next big actress 
. But for real though, if she's gonna play a lawyer, let her at least pretend to care about the law
