Indeed, it's Full of Gibberish, Over-the-Top Hospitality and Psychobabble. But I Do Adore Meghan's Festive Episode.

No matter the season, it's always hunting season for criticism on the Duchess of Sussex's televisual offering, With Love, Meghan. Reviewers, from seasoned journalists to online pundits, have seldom found such common ground as when gleefully ripping the lifestyle show's initial installments apart. The common opinion seemed to be a bigger monarchy-related faux pas had seldom occurred than the much-discussed snack re-labeling incident.

Now, in the spirit of a holiday maverick, she has returned for another round with a "Festive Special" (aka a Christmas special). However on this occasion, things have shifted. The standard components we've come to expect – psychobabble word salads, overzealous entertaining – persist, but set of a holiday show, the purpose becomes clear. The pieces have fallen together; it's a flawless festive blizzard.

Now, Meghan resembles the quirky relative at Christmas celebrations everywhere – dispensing unsolicited, unnecessary advice, and supplying the occasional strange exclamation. ("I love spinach!" … "A tradition has to have a beginning." … "A tree is part of my memory and love of the holiday season.") She's a bit of a character, but her company is customary and unexpectedly soothing. And she seems happy enough; she's causing any harm.

She is aware her each tiny facial movement, word and glance will be analyzed and scrutinized, but still appears unburdened and serenely untroubled.

It could be this is the initial instance in history where that old chestnut – "Don't listen, it's pure jealousy" – might be true. Since, you know what?, everything in Meghan's Holiday Celebration truly is delightful. Granted, it's all awkwardly over-the-top, foolishness and extravagant – but is that not precisely what Christmas is for? And the advice she gives might be laughable, but the example she sets appears to be beautifully curated.

Whatever she attempts, she executes with style. Her culinary efforts looks tasty, the festive decoration she makes is gorgeous, her gifts are nearly too beautiful to unwrap. Not a single thing is average or visually unappealing – including the way she secures her apron is stylish and elegant. She doesn't toss a dish in the microwave, it "has a moment", and she folds wrapping paper like an origami guru. She also seems to be completely savoring herself throughout. How could any skeptical viewer not be convinced, bursting with holiday spirit and left with a powerful yearning for personalized Christmas crackers or a crudites platter where broccoli is arranged in the shape of a Christmas ring?

Meghan was once an actress for a living, naturally, but nonetheless, after the degree of examination she has endured from the moment she started dating Prince Harry, the love child of Meryl Streep and Judi Dench would have difficulty behaving this naturally. Her refusal to change or even moderate her persona, regardless of it being so constantly, globally mocked, is weirdly comforting. In our volatile world, here is something we can count on: Meghan will remain herself, come what may. We will forever know what to expect with her.

If you're remaining skeptical of her message, a thought that will surely come as a comfort: you are not obligated to. There isn't national service anymore, and if there were, it would be unlikely to include streaming With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration. If, however, you willingly check it out and are gripped with longing about her flawless Christmas, all is not lost either. Whether you're a royal or a data administrator, few children truly appreciates the time and energy their mum expends in December. So you can console yourself by picturing the young royals' faces when they reveal a calligraphy note that says, 'I love you because you are brave,' from a handcrafted holiday countdown, rather than a sweet treat.
