Doesn't really do any favours for Polo, people featured are rich, self important and ultimately boring, not relatable at all for the average viewer, I think it was aiming to make Polo appealing but for me it failed miserably, animal lovers are sure to be appalled at the seemingly harsh way the ponies are treated on the field. Admittedly the players are skilled and fit but I dont think the show really highlights this , instead trying to make the whole thing glamorous and slick, even my daughter who is a keen horse rider found it boring and repetitive, unless you're a real fan of Polo I would suggest giving it a miss, there are so many better shows to watch.
An ambitious show about very rich people hobby. I am afraid, I couldn't find much of promised hope in the show, except maybe a hint "when you become as rich as these people you will be able to play polo, too". No doubt, polo can be rather attractive and entertaining, however it is very rare and popular in very limited community and social circle, you cannot compare it with much more democratic sports like cycling or football.
I have read about horse health problem in polo sport, and I wish this was discussed in the show. I wish I could see the polo players taking care about these beautiful animals, unfortunately I didn't.
Interestingly, the world mostly know about polo because of the royals playing it. But we see no Harry participating in polo. Instead I had to watch some unknown guys trying to speak English and explain the polo essence.

Another disaster from Harry and Megan, the couple who begged for anonymity and freedom from public gaze, torment us with another slice of pomp and sheer irrelevance.
We're in a world where people are literally deciding whether to heat or eat, these two think it's the right time to put our a documentary about filthy rich people, devoid of knowing what it is to live in the real world.
Who is this going to appeal to, all I can suggest, if you're having trouble sleeping, pop this on, it is truly the most boring and pretentious thing you will ever see, it is painful from start to fish, you'll not be able to binge watch it.
We're told that the players and adoring fans are beautiful people, I'd question that, all I saw were an elite of hollow people, who all probably went home to enormous mansions, with not a care in the world.
Netflix, please do us all a massive favour, enough with these two now, it's becoming hugely embarrassing, surely they must be costing your business a fortune.
A contender for worst show of 2024, it's abysmal.
1/10.

For two people who claim they care about animal rights, to promote a sport which severely damages the health of these wonderful animals is objectionable. There is nothing glamorous about it. It is a rich elitist sport which abuses animals. The damage to Polo ponies is well documented now so you cannot bury your head in the sand.
The series really does descend into a tacky 'Real Housewives' show. It's a shame that there are no female Polo players shown.
I'd urge people not to watch it, it's self promotion at its best with no thoughts as to the ethics of this sport. It's time we thought a lot more about the purpose of the shows we are making/watching. Our entertainment is not more important than the wellbeing of these animals.

Why on earth would Netflix support the filming of, and then actually air this documentary? Tedious. Boring. Totally unrelatable for anyone who doesn't have a spare few million in the bank. Pretentious and cold hearted. The disrespectful and cruel way in which horses are treated appears to be unregulated...Why? Elitism at its worst. I had high hopes and really wanted Prince Harry to show the world what he's made of... sadly he did but not in a positive way. I'd rather sit and watch paint dry to be honest... it would be of more use! I'm sorry but Meghan and Harry have proven that they are out of touch with the real world and have sadly shown the world that actually their 'creative ideas' aren't of any importance, interest or relevance to most people who live in it.
