Harry & Meghan

I went into this not really knowing what to expect but a few minutes in I thought what could they have to say that could stretch across 6 episodes? Well, in this first 3 episodes nothing new really or all that interesting. For me the one thing that stood out is her relationship with her niece. Yes, Meghan has a neice.

We all knew her mother was the only blood relative reported to have been to the wedding and we're aware of the drama with her father...no family is perfect...but the revelation of a niece was, well, a revelation.

Meghan invited all kinds of "friends" to her wedding, even Oprah who we know she did not know for real yet she did not invite her actual niece she actually had a good relationship with. Why? Because she was so concerned with the possible debacle of explaining why her half sister (the niece's mother) was not invited. If Meghan was ever pressed to say why she didn't invite her half sister she could have simply stated she had no relationship with her but she has a relationship with her niece...case closed. Period. For someone who is so well-spoken and clever as Meghan you think it would have been a no-brainer, nope, instead she cared only about herself and not her neice's feelings. If you ever get invited to a family member's wedding this would have been the wedding. I would have been heartbroken if she was my aunt. That decision, to me, speaks volumes about Meghan.

I was disappointed. The documentary felt more like a one-sided promotion of Harry and Meghan's image than a balanced exploration of their lives.

The documentary lacked any real insight into the couple's experiences, and instead relied heavily on anecdotal evidence and hearsay. There was little effort made to delve into the complex issues surrounding their departure from the royal family, and instead, the narrative seemed to be heavily influenced by Harry and Meghan's perspective.

Moreover, the documentary failed to provide any real depth or analysis, and instead felt more like a collection of talking heads offering their own opinions. The lack of diversity in the perspectives presented was particularly disappointing.

Overall, I would not recommend the Harry & Meghan Netflix documentary to anyone looking for an unbiased and thoughtful exploration of the couple's lives. Instead, it feels like little more than a shallow attempt to burnish their public image.

This was sort of as expected. I wanted to feel sympathy for Meghan at times, a couple episodes in, but this documentary was so very obviously planned as a fallback, with all the emotional vlogs over a number of years, that by the end I was over the drama. The victim/race card is hashed and rehashed, but what if it's actually not race and its actually just personality? We're not actually allowed to ever say that thoogh. Meghan comes across as someone who thought she could change an old institution, but when she couldn't change centuries of tradition, she decided to destroy and monetize it. I realize I'm not allowed to say this, but the modern monarchy doesn't come across as racist and I believe the initially welcomed Meghan, which means there is either a massive conspiracy, as they suggest, or maybe she was tough to deal with for other reasons. Based on how this was contrived I'm inclined to believe the later. Of course no one is perfect and I'm sure there are individuals here and there in the institution with racist views. Harry seems genuine and Meghan is definitely an actress, with a well timed pause and tear.

The rich, money grabbing victim card just doesn't work for me.

This couple is so boring and talentless that the only interesting thing about them is the royal family they like to trash so much. Such a waste of time. Watched it thinking they were going to drop some serious bombshells but it was just a six episode whine fest. Now I'm just left more disgusted by them than ever before. Also keep in mind that this docuseries is not based on any facts since there's still no evidence of their claims. It's all just their opinions and experience. They couldn't even gather one piece of evidence that they were actually "hounded' by the press. To sum it all up this is just a docuseries on hurt feelings.

I started off with no particular thoughts/feelings towards this couple.

If they didn't want the 'Royal' lifestyle and the media attention that went with it, then fine.

I felt best of luck, they have every right to choose to 'step out' of the limelight.

Except this isn't stepping out of the limelight. This is the exact opposite.

It is difficult to feel sympathy for a couple who are clearly incredibly wealthy and priviledged.

Yet this 'series' is obviously designed to make ordinary folk, who are struggling with the current economic crisis, feel sympathy (which I felt was incredibly crass)

In this respect, it has failed and failed disasterously.

They don't put up any factual or substantiated accusations .

Despite all the heavy mood setting music, black and white pictures and attempt to bring in Diana. It was obviously a professional PR presentation.

It is clearly not an unbiased documentary.

This series is their own specific viewpoint as victims.

Harry comes across as a weak willed puppy dutifully following 'Queen' Meghans commands.

My final impression was one of two whinging wealthy spoilt brats wailing 'woe is me' from their priviledged self rightous bubble.

I was left feeling a mild contempt.
