Last night, Megan and Harry were publicly ridiculed on Greg Gutfield’s satire talk show, leaving them feeling humiliated.
The segment on the show, known as The Greg Gutfield Show, focused on what Gutfield referred to as “The Grifters.”
This American news and political satire talk show, which aired on Fox News from 2015 to 2021, is created and presented by Greg Gutfield.
The show began by featuring an article from The Hollywood Reporter, which labeled the Harkles as one of the biggest losers in Hollywood in 2023.
Tyrus, a frequent guest on the show whose real name is George Murdoch, wasted no time in criticizing the couple.
He dismissed them as D-list royals, emphasizing that nobody really cares about them.
Tyrus went on to highlight how even a video of waves washing up on the beach garnered more views than anything Megan and Harry produced on Netflix.
Tyrus, an outspoken critic of the couple, is a wrestler who happens to be biracial.
He appears to have little patience for their constant complaints and grievances.
Another guest, Andrew, a TV chef, shared his experience with Megan when she appeared on his show featuring junior chefs.
He mentioned that she was pleasant during the show but abruptly stopped contacting him and his wife after meeting Harry.
Shannon, yet another guest, chimed in, expressing her fondness for Hallmark movies.
She pointed out that in these movies, it’s always the girl who finds her prince charming.
However, she humorously noted that there isn’t a single movie where the girl marries the prince and then begs him to give up everything.
The guests continued to mock Megan and Harry for approximately five minutes, with some even joking about Harry allowing Megan to emasculate him.
One significant issue highlighted during the show was the couple’s lack of discretion.
They have built a brand by breaching private confidences and sharing personal stories.
This is precisely why many in Hollywood choose to distance themselves from them.
The importance of discretion and trust cannot be overstated in the entertainment industry.
Once those qualities are lost, it becomes challenging to gain any credibility or success.
It is truly astonishing how quickly Megan and Harry’s reputation has plummeted in 2023.
Just a year ago, they were still being treated with utmost respect.
However, it seems that South Park’s portrayal of them opened the floodgates for public criticism.
As if to add insult to injury, their £88 million Netflix series reportedly pales in comparison to the popularity of Peppa Pig.
According to Netflix, their documentary about leaving royal life garnered a total of 62 million hours of viewership in the first half of 2023.
In contrast, the first two seasons of the children’s cartoon Peppa Pig amassed over 140 million hours combined.
To put this into perspective, 60 million hours of viewing is equivalent to one million people watching a one-hour episode once.
Netflix released these figures after facing criticism for lacking transparency regarding content performance.
Interestingly, the most viewed show on Netflix during the first half of the year was the political thriller The Night Agent, which accumulated an impressive 812 million hours of viewership within approximately three months after its premiere on March 23rd.
