I just love me some Lerato, the girl is very I mean very beautiful. Look at her eyes, look at her pearly whites. Did i mention her smile????

And she is doing the Lerato character justice.

I'm not sure I like the new Charlie, also I don't know if the other Charlie would have perfected the role though. No offence to Michaela.

Zak was one fine good actress, for a while I thought she's Indian. She had that pointed nose and her wig/weave was so perfect. She spoke fine English. Please bring her back please please.

On the issue of talent and acting and looks, Where are following people? Should I submit these names to Ba Kae?

1. Vengeance - He used to act with Ferry Jele and the guy who is Moruti on Ga Re Dumele. (that man was extremely convincing in that part, your typical Xhosa guy from the real bundus.)
2. Dini Nondumo -
3. Shiela Petlele
4. Twiggy Mkhize
5. Roland Mqwebu

Ferry Jele is Mrs Chabedi, Lerumo's mom on Scandal, I just forgot the name of the story they were in. It looked like it was cast on one of these Joburg hotels that are in Wanderers and Troye or Von Wiellig Street. The name that used to show was "Diplomat Hotel" which is Jeppe and Plein Street.

my soapiepolice.. i thnk Generations and Muvhango are doing the same thing they have people with good looks and no clue with the acting,, like Thuli,, on Muvhango,, she is soo pretty but her acting skills for me are not lekker,,.. and we just watch their hairstyles and outfits ,, on Generation,, tht Angela, Simphiwe,Smang and Namhla yoooo they are poor in terms of acting,, others will give them 8/10... please say it if im wrong,

Check my previous blogs this week about Muvhango+Generations.

the difference with Isidingo is that most of their actors can act eventhough theyre good looking, unlike Generations and Muvhango

Qaqamba, Athandwa Kani (John Kani's Son) is a good actor. Do you remember him playing Dr Mongezi on Muvhango? And I agree with you on the actors in Generations. Have you seen Thuli when she's angry? I hated her when she was begging Dr Somebody (Phenyo) " sthandwa sam" ngiyakcela bandla ungangshiyi"

Soapiepolice I did not get hurt sweetheart....
