Meghan Markle’s latest Netflix venture appears to be fading into obscurity, and if Mindy Kaling’s reaction on The View is anything to go by, it’s not leaving much of an impression. The actress and producer delivered a subtle yet brutal snub when asked about Meghan’s cooking show, leaving the panel – and audiences – in stitches.
During a discussion about celebrity-led cooking series, Kaling was asked if she had seen Meghan’s much-hyped Netflix project. Her response? A confused look followed by a dismissive chuckle. “Oh… I don’t even remember it!” she quipped, prompting laughter from both the hosts and the audience.
Kaling’s comment only adds to the growing sentiment that Meghan’s cooking show has failed to capture viewers' interest. Despite its high-profile promotion and Netflix’s initial backing, the series struggled to make an impact, quickly slipping off trending lists and failing to generate significant buzz. Critics have called it an uninspired attempt at lifestyle branding, lacking the authenticity and warmth needed to resonate with audiences.
Entertainment insiders suggest that Kaling’s reaction reflects the broader industry’s skepticism toward Meghan’s media projects. With Netflix reportedly reassessing its investment in the Duchess’s content, moments like this only add fuel to the speculation that her streaming career may be short-lived.
For someone who once dominated headlines with her royal exit and Hollywood ambitions, Meghan now faces an industry that demands more than just name recognition. As The View panel moved on from Kaling’s comment without further discussion, it was a telling sign: if even fellow celebrities are indifferent to Meghan’s show, its future looks increasingly uncertain.
While Meghan and her team have yet to respond, one thing is clear—when a major Hollywood figure like Mindy Kaling openly shrugs off your work, it’s not a great sign for its longevity.
