Kim Kardashian's New Show Bashed As 'Worst TV Drama Ever' -- Zero Stars!!! YIKES!!

by · Perez Hilton

Is Kim Kardashian‘s new show the worst ever created? That is what the critics are saying in some of the most scathing reviews we’ve ever read!

Perezcious readers know the reality star teamed up with Ryan Murphy again for the new television drama on Hulu called All’s Fair. It follows a group of female divorce lawyers who open a practice in Los Angeles, and “navigate high-stakes breakups, scandalous secrets, and shifting allegiances — both in the courtroom and within their own ranks,” per a synopsis. It stars Kim, Glenn Close, Naomi Watts, Sarah Paulson, Niecy Nash-Betts, and Teyana Taylor.

With so many huge stars behind the project, you’d hope the final product is spectacular! However, the reviews are in following the premiere of the first three episodes on Tuesday… and they are ABYSMAL! As of this writing the show has a truly shocking 0% on Rotten Tomatoes, almost unheard of. And it seems Hulu saw this coming — they embargoed all reviews for the show until Tuesday morning… AFTER the show’s Monday night premiere!

Critics aren’t just bashing the show, they’re going to TOWN on it — with one going so far as to call it the “worst TV drama ever!” We aren’t kidding! The Times not only gave it zero stars, but their headline read:

“All’s Fair review: this may be the worst TV drama ever.”

Damn! Deputy TV editor Ben Dowell went on to call the series “tacky,” saying:

“Well done, Kim. You must have quite a healthy ego yourself to star in what may well be the worst television drama ever made. Because ‘All’s Fair’ (Disney+) is so bad, it’s not even enjoyably so. It thinks it’s 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 couldn’t write ‘bum’ on a wall.”

Oh, that is brutal! But he is not the only one who feels that way! Guardian TV critic Lucy Mangan also gave a zero-star rating for the series as she feels it is “existentially terrible.” Yikes. She 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, ‘All’s 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.”

A majority of the reviews slammed the acting, especially Kim’s portrayal of divorce attorney Allura Grant. Take the Telegraph‘s Ed Power. Although there are other “disaster” performances on All’s Fair, he pretty much called her a snooze fest! Ed wrote:

“Amid this disaster zone of soapy plotting and reeking dialogue, it is perhaps unfair to single out Kardashian. Her participation is just one disaster among many (she is an executive producer alongside her mother and manager, Kris Jenner). Yet there is no glossing over her stilted acting, already confirmed by her guest appearance in season 12 of Murphy’s ‘American Horror Story.’”

His main issue with Kim is that she has no “X factor” on screen! He continued:

“Even more striking than her lack of thespian chops, however, is her complete absence of screen presence. She has no aura, no unfiltered charisma. Forget an X factor, Kardashian has a Zzzzzz… quality that threatens to lull the unprepared viewer into a stupor whenever she opens her mouth.”

Dowell added for The Times when it comes to the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum:

“Does Kardashian (who plans to take bar exams, we are told) make a convincing lawyer? No, she does not. She is to acting what Genghis Khan is to a peaceful liberal democracy, though of course the dialogue — a tsunami of clunking cliché that drowns this whole enterprise in the first five minutes — doesn’t help her cause.”

OMG! Hopefully, Kimmy Kakes isn’t reading all these harsh reviews! Last but not least, Glamour editor Emily Maddick felt All’s Fair is like watching an episode of The Kardashians. And taking aim at Ryan, she went off:

“And after sitting through the first episode of ‘All’s Fair,’ if ‘aspirational’ is what they’re aiming for, then god help us all. For it seems that Ryan Murphy, arguably one of the hottest names in TV, with countless brilliant and diverse, award-winning shows under his belt, including ‘Glee,’ ‘American Horror Story,’ ‘Pose,’ ‘Scream Queens’ and ‘Nip Tuck,’ has been fully Kardashian-ified. He’s drunk the Kris Jenner Kool Aid and the Murphy cinematic universe has been infected by this so-called ‘aspirational’ lifestyle the Kardashians dictate we should all be conforming to aspire to; which, in other words, translates as ‘behaving like a billionaire.’”

We guess you shouldn’t bet on a second season if this is the reaction to the show so far!
