“It’s Ego Driven” | Prince Harry Disappoints Netflix Bosses

Prince Harry's upcoming five-part documentary series on polo, set for release in December, reportedly features very little of the Duke himself. Instead, the focus is on his friend Nacho Figueras, a relatively unknown Argentinian polo player.

According to a source, Netflix bosses are disappointed that the series, titled Polo, centers more on Figueras than Harry, with one insider saying the streaming giant expected "more bang for its buck," after the Duke signed an £80million deal with the streamer.

Harry and Meghan, through their company Archewell, serve as executive producers on the project, which has been dubbed "the Nacho Show" behind the scenes.

Peter Cardwell speaks with Talk's royal commentator, Rupert Bell.

Polo doc: PH, an abuser of defenseless animals/ polo ponies one of which was pregnant & died from PH's cruelty. Five hours of polo? 4.95 hours of Megain wardrobe & preening in front of a camera or her stroking N's thigh? NTFLX: get out asap.

the awareness on animal welfare has changed enormously in the last ten so bad timing ....

[wendylinton]

What a waste of time ..hurting beautiful creatures for his pleasure?

[heidimueller]

All of the “ponies” are basically abused. They have to be small so the riders can reach the ground with their “sticks”, so they carry too much weight to begin with. Then they are jerked around from pillar to post to reach a ball and avoid other horses. They are spurred and yanked . YUCK!

🎉who is going to watch Haz abusing polo ponies!💩

[joanpeach]

No one in the US will watch it. I live in a rural area, lots of horses, no polo.

[terimcgehee]

Here in America ( like a lot of other countries ), people are having financial difficulties, housing, food, etc . Most are not interested in Harold with his polo trying to rub shoulders with socialists

Nacho & Harry Ride A Horse. Wow how exciting. Next on Harry & Megan go to Target shopping.

[servant-of-cats]

Netflix should get the word that Harry is on the radar for abusing the horses he rides during polo matches. Images of the bloody horses have been put out there, as well as a report that one of his horses died from his outright cruelty. He has been branded an animal abuser and in America, we love our animals and we don't like animal abusers. So it's a bad idea on that level, notwithstanding H's unpopularity (that's putting it kindly). Another stupid idea in a desperate appeal for attention. Teeing up another globally watched failure.

Like fox hunting, polo is a cruel sport loved by the rich

[veeveexiosgrchiosgr]

They’re full of themselves. They need therapy.

[ninaray]

I'll never watch it!!! I can't stand animals getting hurt like these horses for no reason other than these guys showing their asses thinking how great they are all the while these horses are bleeding out!!! It should be against the law!!! 🌿🌹🌿

[jackiemadden]

Who is allowing Henry to go near the ponies he’s very cruel to horses and women
Who is going to watch polo it’s the most boring sport ever

[joycekelly]

Americas don’t watch polo. Sorry, I’m sure it’s an interesting game, but I’m not interested as a US citizen.

[TeresaConstable]

Didnt Harry ride his horse so hard aganist the advice and killed the horse and its foal.

[lauriemcintee]

Because we all can afford a horse lol 😂

[JanetMight-crrh]

Not watching any Polo because it is cruelty to the horses.Where is ASPCA and PETA ???

[fattoria_di_bastoni]

What do Handbag and MeAgain do well or do at all?
Nothing.

[AK.kje]

The Netflix executive who approved the polo special should be fired!!

[rocketmom]

If Harry isn't in the show, 50% of the people won't watch it. If his is in in, the other half won't watch it.
