Sarah Paulson Steals the Show in Panned Legal Drama 'All's Fair'

On November 5th, 2025, Hulu's highly anticipated legal drama "All's Fair" premiered, but the reviews have been anything but fair. The show, created by Ryan Murphy and starring Kim Kardashian as a founding partner at an all-female divorce law firm, has been the subject of scathing criticism from TV critics.

The Hollywood Reporter described the series as "unforgivably dull," while Variety called it "clumsy" in its storytelling and "condescending" in its supposedly feminist messaging. The Times went even further, declaring that "All's Fair" may be the "worst TV drama ever."

While much of the criticism has focused on Kardashian's performance, which has not improved since her disappointing turn in "American Horror Story," there is one name that has been largely overlooked: Sarah Paulson. The acclaimed actress, known for her roles in "American Horror Story" and "Ratched," delivers a standout performance that has been overshadowed by the show's overall poor reception.

Despite the negative reviews, the creators of "All's Fair" will likely be hoping that the series can find an audience and redeem itself in the eyes of critics and viewers alike. However, with the overwhelming consensus that the show is a disappointment, it remains to be seen whether it can overcome its initial stumble and find success.
