This is an odd topic to base a series on. Where those involved have clearly seen a gap in the market, us plebs can understand that gap - we're fine with not knowing anything about the sport. There's absolutely no need to make polo mainstream or try to sell it to the masses. Those within the polo sphere don't want masses there, those of us not in the sphere don't want to be part of it 1 not least because there doesn't seem to be anything riveting about any of the people shown in the episodes. I think let's just let 2 very separate worlds coexist without ever mixing, that's fine. Not everything needs to be made equal.
I'm not sure what we were supposed to take away from this, but the pace, the shots, the sport, the people, the execution, the extremely exaggerated posing and false bonhomie just don't fool anyone. Polo isn't interesting enough for most folk. And it certainly isn't interesting enough through the lens of 2 former Firm members who add an unpalatable helping of insipidness to the whole thing.
This was either rushed through by the couple of "survivors" or, polo just doesn't make good watching - or both. Speaking as someone who neither loves or hates the British Royal Family, I went into this with a fairly open mind. Unfortunately I think the execution and the reviews kind of do speak for themselves and make minds up. It's just not good TV and the whole thing feels like the panicked, pretend, faux-natural yawn-athon it clearly is. I think it's probably time that Harry and Meghan chucked in the towel and that Netflix chucked Harry and Meghan.
