Netflix Boss Hails Meghan Markle's 'Remarkable Influence' Despite Mixed Reviews

MEGHAN MARKLE'S TV DEAL TURNS OUT TO BE A DOWNGRADE!

In a shocking twist, Netflix's chief executive Ted Sarandos has given Meghan Markle a glowing review, despite her new TV show "With Love, Meghan" being slammed by critics. The Duchess of Sussex's second series on the streaming service failed to breach the top 100 globally, as well as in the UK and US, but Mr. Sarandos was effusive in his praise.

Appearing on the Aspire with Emma Grede podcast, he hailed Meghan as having "remarkable influence" and said that her show, which has been hit with scathing reviews, was "successful in every measure". This comes despite the documentary about Harry and Meghan being dubbed a "downgrade" by experts due to its reduced $multi-million contract.

The eight-part season of "With Love, Meghan", which features edible flowers and jam sold through her online shop As Ever, has been criticized for being "staged, fake and dull" by critics. The Mail's Liz Jones was one of the few who praised Meghan's authenticity, calling her "genuinely earnest". However, most reviewers panned the show, labeling it as "so boring" and "so contrived", with The Guardian dismissing it as a "series in search of a meaning".

Meghan's foray into small-screen stardom has been marred by controversy, with some accusing her of being "needy" and "narcissistic". Her latest series was supposed to be the highlight of her Netflix deal, but it seems that even this couldn't boost the numbers.

But don't just take our word for it! The figures are in, and it's clear that Meghan's show has fallen flat. With only 136 viewers tuning in after its release last month, it's safe to say that it hasn't been the hit that she had hoped for.

So what does this mean for Harry and Meghan's future projects with Netflix? Insiders have revealed that there are still a few more shows in development, including a Christmas special set for December. But will these be enough to save their flailing TV deal?

A Sussex source told Newsweek: "The company continues to go from strength to strength... The huge demand right from the outset maybe caught us a little off-guard, but it's testament to the support she has and the quality of the product being made."

It seems that even with all this bad press, Meghan is still raking in the dough. Her online shop As Ever is selling out goods left and right, including edible flowers and jam, which is a clear sign that her brand is still going strong.

But what's really behind Harry and Meghan's decision to ink this new deal? Experts have weighed in, saying that it's clearly a "downgrade" from their previous $100million contract. So why did they agree to it?

One thing is for sure - this deal has raised more questions than answers. With its reduced multi-million dollar price tag, it seems that Harry and Meghan are willing to settle for less. But will this be enough to keep them on the top of the entertainment world? Only time will tell.
