All’s Fair’ Is Panned by Critics as Viewers Drive Hulu’s Biggest Scripted Debut in Three Years

Weekly releases keep the Ryan Murphy series trending, with season-two chatter still unconfirmed.

Overview

  • The series holds a 4% critics score on Rotten Tomatoes, with rare zero‑star reviews from outlets including The Guardian and The Times calling it one of the year’s worst.
  • Hulu says the show drew 3.2 million global views in its first three days, marking the platform’s most‑viewed original scripted debut in three years.
  • Viewers are fueling a vigorous hate‑watch conversation across social media, with audience reaction notably more forgiving than the critical consensus.
  • Kim Kardashian has leaned into the backlash on Instagram, joking about the reviews and sharing posts from fans who tuned in because of the negativity.
  • Reports suggest Ryan Murphy has begun drafting Season 2, but no renewal has been announced as the nine‑episode first season continues its weekly rollout through December.
