Who is this show for? Perhaps those drawn to trad wife aesthetics – or maybe just Netflix

Oh god, my garden isn't big enough to cope!! I wouldn't be able to go out - I have a phobia that they will fly into my face. And larger birds always shit on my eldest DD 😂!

I've seen them chase other ground feeders, like the doves and blackbirds! As well as scrapping amongst themselves.

I am just glad Guy the beagle is keeping it real by looking a bit grizzled, snoring in his dog bed and no doubt shedding dog hairs everywhere.

I read that Guy had gone to Rainbow Bridge last year, but MM only announced it about 4 days ago: I mean has she only just noticed?

Indeed. Very distracting when you’re engrossed in a game of chess.

And they are exactly the kind of posts that do no favours at all to the Sussexes.

Totally agree

Was it actually last year? I hadn't seen that. Bizarre.

Omg, these posts are hilarious.

Edited

Indeed - "reign of evil" for goodness sake 🤪

Funny how it's always those on one side of the fence calling out critics of H&M as being full of hate - but I don't think I've seen anyone refer to Meghan as a hag, or say that they're evil...

I was thinking exactly the same.

Imagine speaking about anyone in those terms.

Mylovelygreendress · 12/01/2025 20:57

The show is being postponed .

Mylovelygreendress · 12/01/2025 21:03

Statement:

I'm thankful to my partners at Netflix for supporting me in delaying the launch, as we focus on the needs of those impacted by the wildfires in my home state of California.'

"Hag" is a nasty misogynistic term which I didn't think anyone used these days.

Seems I was wrong.

Atlasvue · 12/01/2025 21:11

Everybody was saying it….that she would want it delayed. She’s only delaying the inevitable though.

Surprised NF caved

The fires will be over, but the blame game, insurance woes, rebuilds etc will still be going on.

Shows you how much she has riding on Ian’s how she was rattled by all the tone deaf debates

OP posts:
Hemlocked · 12/01/2025 21:13

Given this postponement, do we think there is a chance that it will just be quietly but permanently shelved?

Atlasvue · 12/01/2025 21:15

She knew she couldn’t post her joyful instas and get her celeb friends to promote her show….she knew it’d be a failure.

March may be a better time in terms of it being nearly spring and all but too much time will have gone by.

Now that's actually not a bad statement. A bit too much 'me' and 'my' but compared to the usual waffle it's short and to the point, and also makes the personal point of it being her home state.

Maybe….every article talks about how tone deaf it is- even if they think that’s just the haters. Nevertheless, it’s what the show is associated with.

So maybe all the bad press means they won’t show it at all or there will be a re edit?

Hi 👋🏼 Meghan's PR.

Do you want a 🍷 for your shift? Red or white?

Must say I'm surprised at this. I said above that NF wouldn't want to set a precedent.

Yes, March would have been a much better time to stream in the first place.

But now that they've put out the trailer and her Instagram launch, I'm not sure delaying will help. The 'buzz' will be gone by then.

Atlasvue · 12/01/2025 21:23

I think they’ll have to cut another trailer to get the buzz back. Hopefully not another RomCom style one though.

OP posts:
MummyJ12 · 12/01/2025 21:24

Gobsmacked but it’s a good move for all concerned.
It wouldn’t have looked good on anyone had it gone ahead.

Atlasvue · 12/01/2025 21:25

All her posts will have been lined up and are sitting waiting. So if it’s 6 weeks until the show: It will be fire stuff for the next 4 weeks, then two weeks of build up to the show with the previous instas she couldn’t put out and roping in her celeb pals to do their but to promote the show.

The Late Queen said Meghan was evil, but I don't think she ever posted on MN.

Atlasvue · 12/01/2025 21:29

But she’s still left with the same problem.

Many in America have been hit hard with the inflation of groceries. I’m shocked at some of the prices.
We don’t have a lot of good going on in the UK. But the aggressive supermarket competition means our prices for food are reasonable (especially as we import most things as we are a wee cloudy island)

So it’s still not going to be smooth sailing.
