Reality television star turned actress Kim Kardashian has delivered a characteristically witty response to the overwhelmingly negative critical reception of her new legal drama All's Fair, which initially scored a brutal zero per cent on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes.
Social Media Clapback
Rather than being discouraged by the poor reviews, Kardashian took to Instagram on Friday 07 November 2025 to share an unconventional celebration of the show's reception. She posted screenshots of sarcastic fan reviews that ironically praised the programme for its 'badness' and 'ridiculous styling', indicating an appreciation for the show's camp value.
In her caption, Kardashian boldly declared All's Fair 'the most critically acclaimed show of the year' - a clear tongue-in-cheek reference to the actual critical mauling the series has received from numerous media outlets including The Independent and The Guardian.
Streaming Success Despite Criticism
Despite the negative professional reviews, Kardashian was quick to highlight a significant achievement: All's Fair is currently the most-watched title on Disney+ globally. This suggests that while critics may have panned the show, it has found substantial audience appeal.
The series, created by television powerhouse Ryan Murphy, features an ensemble cast including Kardashian, Naomi Watts and Niecy Nash-Betts as three wealthy female divorce attorneys. The plot follows their characters as they leave a male-dominated law firm to establish their own practice in Los Angeles, specialising in high-profile divorce settlements.
Ironic Appreciation Gains Traction
The show's reception highlights an interesting phenomenon in modern entertainment consumption, where audiences sometimes embrace content precisely for its perceived flaws. Kardashian's decision to highlight the sarcastic fan reviews rather than ignore the criticism demonstrates a savvy understanding of this dynamic.
This approach has generated additional buzz around the series, potentially driving more viewers to Disney+ to see what all the controversy - both negative and ironically positive - is about.
The situation mirrors other instances where poorly-reviewed content has found success through audience engagement that differs significantly from critical assessment, proving that in today's streaming landscape, viewer numbers can sometimes speak louder than review scores.
