A word of advice to entertainers of all makes, shapes and sizes: “Keep politics out your fucking mouth” Thank me later.
It's not that South African viewers love melodrama, it's because that is the majority of what they are fed when it comes to scripted shows. Greenlight other genres like Periodicals, Anthologies, Comedies, etc. If they fail then you can say only melodramas and emo-tainment works…

There's a JHB Zulu actor which the industry loves to cast as a hard core KZN Zulu ntsizwa and my ears bleed everytime he speaks cause he speaks isiZulu in English. It's like he puts his script into Chatgpt.
Everybody Loves Raymond star Patricia Heaton explains why comedy shows aren’t funny anymore. She says writers’ rooms have become so woke that even a Marine character couldn’t dislike hugs because that was deemed “homophobic.” Instead of fighting over what’s funny, she says…

So DSTV is advertising DSTV on DSTV to people with DSTV to buy DSTV?
I don’t know if it’s just me but local TV in the late 90s and early 2000s had a certain sophistication about it, well spoken, aspirational - inclusive of all demographics of the country. Now we’re reduced to Moja Love shows about missing baby daddies in Thembisa.
📺The Felicia Show (1995-2004) 31 years later, South African actors and Actresses are still speaking about low pay, missing contracts, unpaid royalties, and structural exploitation. To talk about SA pop culture without talking about labour is to tell an incomplete story. What…
Bill Skarsgard was born to play Pennywise

Does he know that it's Disney (not the fans) who shrunk him on the poster for China?
Star Wars actor John Boyega says a lot of fans have a problem seeing a black person in the lead role
MTV officially shut down its 24-hour music channels on 31st Dec, 2025. They ended their final broadcast with 'Video killed the radio star' by The Buggles, the very first video broadcasted by MTV on August 1st, 1981.
