RANT & RAVE
When is Isidingo going to drop Gabriel from the storylines? The stuff he says on TV is disgusting and his acting is really bad – LILIAN, VIA SMS
Please ask the SABC to cancel Trending SA. It’s utter rubbish and the presenters are so loveme love-myself – GARY, VIA EMAIL
Why does Generations – The Legacy have to be shown in the High Rollers timeslot on SABC3 just because soccer is on? What makes Generations more important than High Rollers? – AMANDA, VIA EMAIL I am tired of Tshidi on Generations – The Legacy always getting away with endangering people’s lives. Jack or Fana must discover what Tshidi did to Nandi. Also, I would like to see more of Nandi on the show – EDWARD, VIA FACEBOOK
A big up to Muvhango for highlighting mental illness through the storyline of Onika, who is bipolar. I hope that people will learn not to stigmatise people with mental illness – CHRISTINE VALENTINE, VIA EMAIL Please don’t do anything to Oubaas and Matrone unless this is how the show is going to get rid of them! Can 7de Laan writers please give Vince a break? This guy has nothing but tough times! – LALITA COOK, VIA EMAIL The Real Talk presenter is professional. She is intelligent, witty and natural. Our own Oprah. Unlike the useless Trending SA and A Date With Arthur. Well done, Anele – JOY MARAIS, VIA SMS
Come on SABC. Are there no decent movies and I don’t mean the ones we’ve seen over and over and all the kiddies films? Please get rid of Trending SA and put Days in that timeslot! Maybe we should boycott and stop paying our TV licence. Glad we have cricket again! – DENNY, VIA FACEBOOK
I speak on behalf of many viewers when I say that I find the fact that Days Of Our Lives is not repeated anywhere, at any time on any other channel extremely irritating, frustrating and unfair – PETRO HODGES, VIA EMAIL Can SABC Encore please rerun the full seasons of Vetkoekpaleis for us older people who missed it when it was shown earlier on Encore? – GRETHA, VIA EMAIL Not that SABC3 is my favourite channel anymore, but it’s ridiculous that the majority of prime English programmes are shown at the late hours of night, while poorquality “local” shows programs are shown early at night. Do they really think that most people will want to stay awake until 23:00 to watch Arrow or 00:00 to watch Days? – PIERRE VAN TONDER, VIA EMAIL
I’m upset with DStv who just stop shows without telling us that it’s on a break (instead they just repeat the last few episodes we’ve already seen) or it’s the final episode. For the price we pay, a bit of common sense would be good – CHRISTINE ACKERMAN, VIA FACEBOOK Hey, what’s going on? Gordon Ramsay was advertised on a Tuesday at 20:00 but it’s Top Chef! Why? Gordon has so much more to offer! – CINDY, VIA FACEBOOK I have been very angry with the programme scheduling on M-Net. They just put anything on at any time without prior notice, like The Voice, which has been rammed down our throats. – CYNTHIA BACON, VIA SMS
Muvhango writers keep on amusing me. Thifhelimbilu was asked if she had seen Teboho anywhere and she answered: “I haven’t seen her. I thought she was upstairs!” But if you have a look outside their house, the only upstairs they have is the sky! – EDWARD RAMABULANA, VIA FACEBOOK I can’t wait to see Karabo’s face on Generations – The Legacy when she finds out how much money Mazwi has cost the Moroka family – BEVERLEY, VIA FACEBOOK Why does the SABC not show Twitter hashtags of its shows? Generations should shorten its Twitter hashtag to #GenLegacy so that it easy and trends every day – LIZO ZETHU, VIA FACEBOOK
