Breaking the bank to sign the King and
Queen of Woke Harry and Meghan is the
biggest mistake in Netflix history –
viewers have zero interest in paying to
hear the Sussexes preach

What’s that I hear?
I think it’s the howls of rage and fury emanating from a Montecito mansion in the hours after Meghan Markle had the crushing realisation that pretending to be a Hollywood ‘Duchess’ means nothing in the cutthroat world of American TV.
Netflix, which just 14 months ago at the height of the pandemic subscriber boom, employed the Sussexes in an unprecedented exclusive telly deal worth tens of millions, has had a crushing realisation of its own: Viewers of the once-great streaming platform aren’t going to keep paying to be force fed a succession of painfully PC dramas about pregnant men

Extremely stupid people are very boring, even with unearned titles.

Yep, between signing them and the Obamas before them, what did they expect?

I don’t want anything to do with anything the Sowsexes have anything to do with. The obumbum family brought no value. The Sousexes bring no value. In fact both bring negative value.
Entertainers become celebrities by entertaining. Celebrities who are manufactured don’t become entertaining.

There is no such thing as a 'royal' family, there is nothing 'royal' about a king, queen, duke, duchess and any of the other man-made titles these parasites have given themselves. I don't think there is anything I hate more than 'royalty.' Get a job and become useful.

AS we tune in today ( cue up the cheesy organ music ) we find the The Duke and Dukette aka Sparkle Markel Farkel and Prince Harkle are not the fabulous assets they think they are. At least not to Netflix . Maybe to Oprah or The View. Which isn't saying much. Will the Dukette put out a press release blaming others? Will the Duke bravely soldier on with the Shrew of Sussex? And what about the invisible children, Arkel and Larkle , do they really exist? For the answers to these and other boring questions, tune in next week, next month or next year for another chapter of " The Unmerry Wife of Windsor "..................seeking privacy while appearing everywhere for cold cash.

We never subscribed to Netflicks so no harm done in this household.

I know there have been rumors floating for ages that the Harry formerly known as Prince is neither the most intelligent nor mentally stable person around. Still, even he has to realize he's made a horrible mess of his life at some point, doesn't he?

I want to cancel Netflix but I just saw they have new episodes of Ozark I have to watch. So I may have to wait, sadly.

What delicious irony. “The Crown” was/is a wonderful telling of the life story of Queen Elizabeth II and a huge original hit for Netflix. And the Sussex’s story a big, fat bomb. Art imitating life. I love it!

Two of the most boring people in the world trying to cash in on his former title. Not a pretty sight. She married him for his title, money, and his mental problems. She thought she would become a wealthy princess and become best friends with the elite people in Hollywood who had never even heard of her before she married Harry. That's not friendship. She also knew she could take the place of Princess Diana in his mind and control Harry because he has really deep mental illness. She is evil.

I couldn't get through the first 4 paragraphs. If Netflix accidentally showed up on my neighbor's television he'd be suing me for breaking it, and I'd refuse to pay up.

Yesterday in a Nebraska cornfield Donald Trump, an admirer of Queen Elizabeth, forecast the public demise of Dutchless Meghan and her pussy whipped partner Harry. When that demise happens, Meghan and her understudy Harry can always blame Trump as the other “woke” folks have done and continue to do anytime a controversy pops up. Maybe Netflix will then give them another deal to produce an on stage sit down telling that story. Otherwise who cares!

Coming on the heels of Mooch and Smidgen getting canned from Spotify makes this even more delicious.
#’s 7 and 10, I kinda like “The Miserable Wives of Windsor” myself.

My fellow Americans: we have been spared. The royal-acting couple should have stayed in Canada, where they at least knew what to expect. Bit noo. They wanted to emulate that Simpson Woman and this unwelcoming party is what grew from that bad seed.

More stupid money being burned by supposedly smart people to prop up no-talent grifters. Waiting for "racist" claims to appear.

I enjoyed The Crown, Inventing Anna, and Ozark but lately it's been too wokeish for me. I do watch the cooking shows, Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. I can only hope that Netflix will see the writing on the wall and get rid of the woke.

If I Recall Correctly, some months ago while waiting in the checkout line at 'Wally-World', one of the scandal-rags had a cover headline that this pair- Harry and Meghan- found it too hard to keep up the 'Royal Responsibilities' and were 'Resigning' from being 'Royals'.
So.... IF that was true, why are all the Hollywood gossip-promoters continuing to refer to these two as 'Royals'?
Just continue the lie, as long as they (the gossip-mongers) can make money on it?
I must be really bored. The only way I could care less about this pair is if I made a conscious effort to do so..... but that's too much effort.

She sure fooled the redhead, but can't fool the general public. My guess is they will fade from the scene and she will divorce him as soon as he is no longer useful to her and her ambitions.

Netflix shows were never that great to begin with. Breaking Bad was terrific, but after that? Meh. So long, Netflix.
