If/When Netflix Doesn’t Renew Their Contract, Where Will the Sussexes Go?

So, it’s been one disaster after another. Their shows don’t resonate with viewers. The Polo series was a major flop. No one watched the Heart of Invictus or Live to Lead series.

Netflix never picked up Pearl or that odd prequel for Great Expectations. Meet Me at the Lake is going absolutely nowhere.

And now her With Love, Meghan cookery show that was announced just a mere two weeks ago today was pulled from release. Just three days before it was supposed to air.

The writing is on the wall. If/when Netflix doesn’t renew, where will they land? When they were no longer under contract with Spotify, they tried to save face by partnering with Lemonada to house their teensy catalog. But we all know they aren’t doing podcasts anymore.

There isn’t really a Lemonada equivalent in the streaming world, is there? They have to shop around for a deal elsewhere, but I just can’t imagine seeing any major streamer wanting to sign with them. They are a liability, and their latest stunts in LA are coming at the worst time for them as they try to negotiate a new contract.

I think they will resort to self producing, self funding these vanity projects. It’s the only option at this point. For spin, they’ll say they are so excited about expanding their Archewell Productions company, and rebranding it as Archewell Good Media to do good in the world. But we all know it’s all going to have that cheap, public access channel feel that no one watches.
