Oprah and Prince Harry talk mental health in 'The Me You Can't See,' and '1971' hits the right notes
CNN
Apple TV+ premieres a pair of docuseries this week, but the one with the splashier marquee, the Oprah Winfrey-Prince Harry-produced mental-health program "The Me You Can't See," runs a distant second behind "1971: The Year That Music Changed Everything," a hyperbolic title that's still tons of fun to watch (and hear).
"The Me You Can't See" falls into the public-service category -- what for a time, during the latter part of Winfrey's daytime show, was called "broccoli TV" -- using a mix of celebrities and ordinary folks to try removing the stigma from seeking help. "There is no shame in this," Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, says during a conversation with Winfrey that seeks to demystify therapy, while noting that Covid-19 has "magnified" the issues that people face. The chat includes his own testimonial about overcoming his family's posture toward therapy and his need "to heal myself from the past."
