“All’s Fair” is one of the most popular shows on Hulu right now, according to the streamer’s public ranking system. The Ryan Murphy-created legal drama, which debuted last week, follows a team of female divorce attorneys who leave a male-dominated firm to start their own practice. Along the way, per the show’s logline, they deal with “high-stakes breakups, scandalous secrets and shifting allegiances — both in the courtroom and within their own ranks.” Advertisement According to Deadline, “All’s Fair” marked the biggest series premiere for a scripted Hulu original in three years, garnering over 3 million views globally within three days of streaming on the platform. Still, despite being led by a star-studded ensemble cast — including Kim Kardashian, Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Glenn Close, Sarah Paulson and Teyana Taylor — critics collectively gave the series horrid reviews, condemning everything from the show’s “condescending take on rah-rah girlboss feminism” to the cast’s “wildly disparate” performances and “the worst kissing scenes ever filmed.” Advertisement And yet, some viewers still consider the show a fun must-watch. Even the cast has leaned into the savage critiques. Check out HuffPost’s defense of “All’s Fair” here.
