"I have so many questions. Why Khaya?"

@masindiday responded:

"Season 1 was the best. Hope they continue with Love, Law, and Attraction Season 2."

@neilwe_03 said:

"Yho finally, season 1 was the one, and it should’ve been a wrap from there."

@advocate_figo responded:

"Script writers must learn when there is something off. Dawson's Creek scriptwriters noticed there was no chemistry between Dawson and Joey. They changed their script, and the relationship between Pacey and Joey took centre stage. I feel like they forced the Khaya and Amo... Also, the script just lost the plot along the way. Why did someone have to die? That "learners" had to go through courts. Yoh ay kuningi. Nephew was introduced to the first season and loved it. But after that.. Ay lezi ezinye."
