New Sussex project with Netflix re polo

[Anonymous]

It's a drama. Hoping for lots of hot men, personally I'd prefer them heterosexual, but another Heated Rivalry would be fun, too.

PS. This is for the 2-3 of you who believe that Netflix hates the Sussexes, they're dead broke, and the only remaining option is to return to serve as Willy's butt boys. As Netflix' spox said after the Variety piece last week, "Don't believe everything you read."

This actually looks good. I found some of their other content a bit boring.

OP here and I agree, I actually fell asleep during the lifestyle show, although I thought it was harmless and just someone else's cup of tea

I mainly wanted to counter the narrative some post here, that Harry and Meghan are broke failures because Netflix hates them, or something something. This polo drama with Netflix looks fun.

Yeah, sounds promising. Netflix only cut ties with the lifestyle show and the As Ever collaboration, that's all.

Don't see Americans being interested in a polo show but it's harmless.

Why do you want to counter the narrative?

Because it's lies (obviously, given last week's tempest-in-a-teacup about how Netflix had supposedly cut all ties with the Sussexes) put out by a press-industrial complex that uses the Sussexes to distract from whatever else is going on with the monarchy?

And that was the plan all along. They were really only helping her launch the brand with the show due to the partnership between them for Netflix content.

Always much ado about nothing with Harry & Meghan. They've made some PR missteps but they are certainly not the monsters people make them out to be.

Not a Sussex fan (at least their self promotion) but this sounds like it has real potential, I guess assuming they stay behind the scenes.

Idk, this just seems like another out of touch project. I'll be interested to see if it finds an audience.

Ted Sarandos unfollowing As Ever and Meghan definitely was not nothing. He follows plenty of Netflix talent, could simply have left the "follows" in place.

My guess is it will turn into a billions/succession/hunting wives esque show for them. Even if there is not an interest in polo in the US, indulgent dramas about rich people tend to find an audience. I am glad something might finally work out for them.

Only if there is anyone worth watching in them.
