‘Family Guy’ roasts Prince Harry, Meghan Markle for getting paid to do ‘no one knows what’

archetypes.The adult animated comedy on Fox was not afraid to hurl a few insults towards Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in an episode that aired Sunday evening.In the show, now in its 23rd season, cartoon versions of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex appear poolside after the protagonist Peter Griffin compares himself to the royal couple while sitting at a bar with his friends.Worried that he won’t be able to get back the money he is owed, Griffin decides that his best bet will be to take on the world just like the royals did when they announced their plans to step back from their roles as senior members of the British monarchy in late 2022.“I’ll go it alone, just like Meghan Markle and Prince Harry,” Griffin declares.The scene cuts to Harry and Meghan, who are approached by a Butler who attempts to hand Harry a stack of envelopes. “Sir, your millions from Netflix for no one knows what,” he says.

Just 1% of Netflix subscribers use this perk
Netflix’s 250 million subscribers may think of the company primarily as a TV and movie streaming service, 99 percent of them are missing out on a major perk.In recent years, Netflix has branched out into the video games industry.The company has acquired a number of gaming studios, including industry titan Night School Studios, which developed the Oxenfree games.Oxenfree 2 was developed exclusively for Netflix, and yet the streaming platform’s games push is yet to be picked up by subscribers in earnest.In fact, while every Netflix subscription comes with a games library accessed via the Netflix mobile app, it’s unclear how many subscribers even know that the games exist.The library of more than 70 games can be found in the “Mobile Games” row on the Netflix app home screen.It includes award-winning titles including Immortality, Kentucky Route Zero and Before Your Eyes, all of which can be downloaded to mobile and played at no extra cost to subscribers.There are also games to complement popular shows, including ones inspired by Squid Game, Black Mirror and reality TV.But the games feature is little-used, with a report from CNBC revealing just 2.2 million Netflix subscribers — about 0.88 percent — play one of the streamer’s games daily.The stats indicated retention was a problem, with more than 70 million subscribers having downloaded a game at some point and mostly failing to become repeat users.That could be because, while viewers can watch a few minutes of a TV show or movie to get a taste, games require a download and larger time investment.Netflix continues to throw money and resources at the endeavour, with the number of games on the app having tripled in the past year.According to Co-CEO Greg Peters, the streaming

Harry Styles blocked Joan Collins’ view of Cher at 2019 Met Gala: He ‘took no notice’ of me
“Behind the Shoulder Pads: Tales I Tell My Friends,” how she attended the fashion’s biggest night out for the first time and Styles obscured her view when Cher, 77, was singing her hit “Believe.”The “Watermelon Sugar” crooner apparently jumped on the tables in front of Collins during the “Moonstruck” star’s set.“The sophisticated crowd went mad for her, standing up whooping and cheering,” Collins wrote about how excited the audience was to hear Cher sing.“Bette Midler, wearing a top hat and tailcoat in glittery black sequins, came to our table and boogied with Julianne Moore, and I glimpsed Gwyneth Paltrow and Katie Holmes doing the same.”Once Cher did an outfit change to sing, Styles concealed Collins’ field of vision.The soap opera star explained: “Cher left after her first number then came back wearing her original Bob Mackie-style sleek black embroidered bodysuit and a massive black curly wig to sing ‘Believe.'” She added: “Harry Styles jumped on the table in front of us, obscuring our view, and took no notice of our entreaties to ‘get down, we can’t see.'”Despite her disappointment over not being able to see the “Bang Bang” singer, Collins still enjoyed the event.“I loved my first Met Ball, and I would certainly go again in a heartbeat – although at $30,000 a seat, I’ll wait to be invited!” she joked.
