All’s Fair

From November 4th, Disney+

Kim Kardashian heads up a cast of strong, glamorous go-getting women – nothing unusual about that. But while The Kardashians totter through another so-so series of their reality show, Kim is changing things up a bit, leading a star-studded cast in a legal drama revolving around an all-women law firm. The tagline? Never settle. Kardashian plays high-flying divorce lawyer Allura Grant, who is sick of the patronising, testosterone-fuelled firm she works with. So she decides to set up her own law firm, and gathers a team of serious women to join her on her new venture. The series co-stars Naomi Watts, Sarah Paulson, Niecy Nash and Teyana Taylor, all with exotic names like Liberty, Emerald, Milan and Carrington. Of course, they need an elder lemon to deal out wisdom, and Glenn Close fills that role. And just to keep your attention, there’ll be guest appearances throughout the series from the likes of Elizabeth Berkley, OT Fagbenle, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Ed O’Neill, Brooke Shields and Jessica Simpson.
