"It's a great show. Definitely deserves a 2nd season."
@ngishourthat responded:
"Matron is acting like the kids broke into her home and stole the money, when they found the wallet near the bush. Why doesn’t she ask what was her wallet doing in the bush to begin with. Uyadika lomama atsho nge wig," (The woman is annoying).
@giftsellomantsh said:
"That time, Genesis and Ithonga are yet to get new seasons, or I don't know about it."
@malapela_tebogo replied:
"Shwabi is an abusive man who wants his wife to rely on him for everything; he doesn’t want her to be independent by doing something she loves. He has low self-esteem; and he feels like Mthandeni won’t need him anymore."

"The way Mthandeni was smiling when Ngarage was calming down members of the community, oh my ship bathong."
@MissLuu_nje said:
"Zethu is only going back to Okhambeni so that she can be with Sifiso..its not about work, if we are being honest."
@I_am_AmmzY reacted:
"Zethu always makes her decisions based on mjolo wakhe (her dating life) at the time and that's stupid."
