MEGHAN MCCAIN: Kiss America goodbye, Harry and Meghan, you’ve finally lost us: We’re covering our eyes, plugging our ears and screaming -please God, make it stop
Harry and Meghan have lost America.
That’s the spectacularly clear conclusion after two volumes and six hours of a mind-numbingly deep dive into the Netflix saga of the world’s most miserable (ex)royals.
Again, I watched, so you didn’t have to.
Strikingly, the criticism is not just coming from loyalists or the old-school, conservative, anti-woke crusaders – it’s the left that is unleashing.
Congrats H&M, you’ve done something Biden and Trump couldn’t. You’ve brought America together.
Almost everyone is plugging their ears, covering their eyes, and screaming: Please God, make it stop!
The New York Times reheated the ‘second serving of reviews’ of the Megflix opus. ‘Some critics have had their fill of the couple’s account,’ they write, detailing a laundry list of critics who found it to be ‘grudge-rehashing,’ a ‘gussied-up reality show’ and ‘out-of-touch, self-absorbed and cornier than a Hallmark movie.’
Left-leaning The Atlantic ran the headline, ‘The Cringeworthy End of “Harry & Meghan” on Netflix… The ex-royals insist they’re moving on. Viewers should be so lucky’. Far-left Slate ran the hilarious headline, ‘It’s okay to admit Harry and Meghan are annoying.’
Yes, we know it’s ‘okay’.
The royally aggrieved couple’s bestie, CBS News anchor Gayle King, who attended Meghan’s baby shower, called the finale, ‘very dicey’. Whoopi Goldberg said she had better things to do than watch it at all. Liberal shock jock Howard Stern was calling them ‘whiny bitches… like the Kardashians but boring,’ even before the series ended
I could go on and on. But what do ordinary Americans think?
The current ‘audience score’ on the crowdsourced rating site Rotten Tomatoes is 14%. Honestly, it’s hard to find something lower, so I gave up scrolling.
What happened? Not too long ago, it was completely taboo and could get you kicked off US and UK television – see Sharon Osbourne and Piers Morgan – for even questioning Harry and Meghan.
Well, that has clearly come to an end. And I’ll tell you why:
First, no one likes clickbait.
After the infamous Oprah interview and Volume I, everyone was expecting some bombshells. But it was all duds. The most explosive headline from Volume II was that Harry’s brother screamed at him when H&M decided to ditch the family and pursue fame and fortune abroad.
