Mzansi reacts to Warren's new role

Skeem Saam viewers are super amped about this and people are saying his addition to the show is long overdue.

@ZikhaliBandile stated:

"I don't like how Skeem Saam brings up these top actors lately. At first it was Sello Maake and now its Warren. Skeem Saam doesn't need these already established actors, it just needs to create raw talent (Youth) since it is a youth based show. These actors spoils the show."

@Sharyberry_M said:

"I needed a reason to stop watching Scandal and this will be a good reason to watch something else ❤️"
