With Love, Meghan on Netflix

[Anonymous]

Is it normal for Netflix to order another season for a show so quickly after it debuts? I imagine they’d want to give it at least a week to see how it does before making that call, but I obviously don’t know how streaming works.

It sounds like they already filmed it and decided to wait and see how this did. If the first season hadn’t gone well they likely would have scrapped the footage.

I made it five minutes into the first episode when she started opining on house guests and homemade bath salts and had to turn it off. I couldn’t even bear to hate watch it, which was my plan.

I guess that's what many are looking for right now!

Yes Netflix is extremely fast with their renewals and cancelations. They really only care about the $$ they make. This ahow most likely didnt cost a lot to make so this was an easy win for them. Thats why so many many of their shows are cancelled days or even before they even premiere.

What size do we think that one is? It is gorgeous.

It's really hard to tell because the dimensions aren't that different between the 3.5 qt and 5 qt size. It is a gorgeous piece but this one was clearly brand new. The white colored Le Creuset gets yellow with regular use, even on the outside of the pot.

My braiser is my favorite kitchen item!! I highly recommend! You can frequently find them on sale or thrifting if you're into that

I read that review and (besides the title) it was probably the nicest one I have seen about the show. The author is right, Meagan comes across as low energy for something that is supposedly her passion project. Or maybe she is just serene in all her luxury beige outfits gazing out at the mountains. I wonder if she was feeling nervous about her past bad press and felt the need to tone things down, or if this is her real personality. I would love to see Jessica Mulrooney on a future episode in Season 2 and find out that they have patched things up. Clearly not happening but Jessica looks fun.

I’ve always stayed clear of these H&M threads, now I know why.

I don't know why you think we should uplift someone who ridicules their friends and family on TV.

Never heard her ridicule her family. She called them out for bad behavior, like telling her to get on with it while she was suicidal and pregnant.

I really don’t care that she said curtsying is like going to Medieval Times. Do you?

It was a pretty rude thing to say about meeting your future 90 something year old grandmother-in-law. And Harry looked very uncomfortable bc it WAS uncomfortable. And the way sue addressed Mindy isn't how I would speak to my friend, in public or private. But that's fine if you act like that, just expect it to raise eyebrows.

It was not uncomfortable at all. She said the Queen was lovely but that curtsying was weird to her. If that makes you uncomfortable you need to toughen up and get a thicker skin.

I would absolutely be fine joking around with a friend. I’m sorry that you don’t seem to get along with other women so you don’t get female friendships as like an overarching concept. Maybe you should take a cue from Hillaria and go to a yoga class to make some friends there?

Did you even watch the show? Meghan said she met Mindy when she came on her podcast and that they were "email pen pals." She barely knows her. Mindy took the comment in stride but it was a very weird scene. It actually looked edited, there may have been more dialogue. I can't imagine why the whole thing wasn't just cut.

Because MM wanted the Sussex issue out there to make a point. She went on Drew Barrymore show now as Megan Sussex. She intentionally raised the issue with Mindy (making her uncomfortable) and then kept it in.

I agree with her. The family needs to share a last name.
They can’t really use Windsor or Sade-Coburg-Gotha. Even Mountbatten was Battenberg.
Is Harry expected to start using the last name of Markle?

But never mind, the British tabloids still write about her every week.

Ok so the family can share a name. If someone in my professional (or personal) network called me by my maiden name, I wouldn’t have a hissy fit and lecture them on my married name and how precious it is to share a name as a family unit. Spare me.

Also, if she was the royal one, she’d still be using the markle name. She tries so hard to make things seem like it’s not about the Royal status, but it is.

Her act about the “sacred” family time around dinnertime was also so sanctimonious. Most parents are exhausted at the end of the day balancing getting home from work, their kids homework, preparing and feeding them dinner, cleaning from dinner, cleaning up after their kids, then spending time together as a family before bedtime and preparing for the next day. If you aren’t, you are probably only doing a fraction of those things because you either outsource them or stay at home and can do them during the day - both luxuries and she’s trying to share her privilege through nuggets like this, if they’re even true. She just gives off such phony vibes.

She didn’t throw a hussy fit. Mindy seemed unbothered and spoke positively about her experience.

That said….there is no “royal status”. She doesn’t get anything from them. How is this different than Diane von furstenberg still using that name decades after her divorce?

There’s no issue with her using the name, it’s a) being obnoxious about people calling her markle, which was her maiden name (and what she was known as an actress) for 37+ years and b) pretending it’s about being a family unit, when it’s actually about being a family unit with a title.

I don’t know anything about DVF’s life story so I wouldn’t comment on her.

if you've ever read her tig posts then you will know this is not her real personally

I love how Meghan haters are funding her lifestyle. I suspect there will also be 3rd season of her show.

How could they be a family unit without a title when everyone in the family besides her has a title by birth?

DVF married a German “prince”(“von” is frequently used for aristocrats) who she later divorced. Continues to use the name.
