"They told us, book readers, to shut up, while they disrespected us readers week after week, as you all know they wouldn't be this series if we didn't hype the book at all. Not to mention we asked for it, thank you Khanyi for saying this."

"I applaud Khanyi Mbau for speaking out. Imagine being the good actress she is and having to deal with a trash script. The worst part she has done the research and knew what to expect jikijiki she is playing someone completely different from what she read."
@lelowhatsgood tweeted:
"Khanyi is right. the writing for the wife has been so flat. it’s not dynamic enough. i think there should be more to local storytelling than violence."

"At least Khanyi is the only brave one addressing how awful season 2 is. 1 was shaky as is but 2 is trash trash. I want to reverse my R199 subscription. We have beeeeeeeen complaining that they have ruined the book."
