Muvhngo writers are sleeping on the job, it has been doing very well and the ratings are down, soon it will be out of the top 10. Maybe they should bring crazy Meiki back to the cast.

I'm so curious about SABC 3, I'm trying to figure out why South Africans don't relate with that channel. I wish an expert can write a blog about this issue. Coz it seems to me people wouldn't tune in even if they had Kasi stories on there.
