House of Zwide fans react to cancellation
@LoraSedio said:
"I loved House of Zwide. I just stopped watching because I felt like they had lost the plot. They no longer focus on the fashion a lot. The standard of the fashion shows has dropped, ai its just a mess. I hate that this is happening to them; they had potential."
@FlakeyWhistle96 replied
"Scandal will always hurt... What an amazing show it was, and they decided to ruin it ... This is the end for eTV and me, I guess cause I was really only watching Scandal on that channel."
@ntlanetokollo wrote:
"I like that eTV is in the business of making television! If you don’t perform, you get canned, so we make way for those who have the potential to do better."
@Phumzar4 responded:
"They must just stick to two soapies with good storylines as they used to with Scandal and Rhythm City."
@KasheSetjhaba1 responded:
"Even Ithonga, it doesn't appear in the first week of March schedule, because 20:30 is Inimba."
@mmakhumoetsile replied:
"I'm going to miss Smokes & Mirrors and Scandal, though. I won't be watching eTV clearly."
