Netflix’s Regret: Duke and Duchess of Sussex Fail to Make Top 10
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, have failed to make it into Netflix's top 10 with their Invictus Games documentary.
This raises the question: are people simply tired of the Sussexes?
It seems that the sheen has worn off, and Netflix may come to regret their decision to give the couple an £80 million deal.
It is worth noting that when Netflix signed the Sussexes, they also struck a deal with the Obamas.
This happened during the lockdown period when subscriptions were skyrocketing due to people being confined to their homes with limited entertainment options.
The timing of the royal family's exit was quite opportune, capitalizing on the increased demand for streaming content.
However, since then, the Sussexes have failed to maintain that momentum.
Instead of focusing on creating compelling content, they have spent much of their time discussing their struggles within the royal family.
This constant narrative shift has resulted in a loss of interest from the public.
Even their Invictus Games documentary, which one would expect to generate significant attention, has fallen short.
Critics argue that the Sussexes lack the appeal and substance that would keep audiences engaged.
They are not astrophysicists, doctors, or engineers with groundbreaking achievements to their names.
Meghan, at best, can be considered a C-list actress, while Harry, despite his intriguing life experiences, often undermines his own story with constant complaints and a seeming lack of gratitude for his privileged upbringing.
This failure to captivate viewers has not gone unnoticed by Netflix.
The fact that the Duke of Sussex's docuseries failed to make it into the streaming giant's top 10 suggests that people have lost interest in what he has to say.
It appears that the couple's relevance and influence are waning.
While some may argue that the Sussexes' departure from the royal family was a significant event, it seems that the public's fascination with their personal lives has diminished.
