Okay ,APCH faithful, yesterdays episode was by far the dullest, most annoying moment on tv in 2009.Or am I wrong? Anyone who saw a redeeming grace in last nights episode please fill me in. Maybe I'm a heartless perrimist but ka Setswana nnya nnya nnya ya mosadi to watching dribil on tv to last nights episode.Watching paint dry or Amazulu play soccer would have been more exciting than last night show.
The first thing that really turned me sour is the fact that the guys put last weeks development on ice,and decided just to concentrate on the looser Sphiwe for the entire episode. Then the little 'interogation device" of going back and forth,from the present to what happened earlier was just played out.How many times have we seen that done in other shows but done more interestingly.
Then there was the Cassius deviation / sidetrack. Is it not too late for us to be getting character backgrounds.The whole weepy washy story about Cas going home and finding poor mommy in a box was such a big yawn.Cause neither the trip back home or Sphiwe's little "the ussual suspect" moment has any impact on the general story.By the end of last night episode Sphiwe and Cas had not advanced the plot forward, the character were in the same place as when the show started.Ok ,I guess you could say Sphiwe accepting money from Mr.Dodgy Producer was a new low in his development,but the whole pride thing is been going on for over four weeks now.How long are we going to have to stomach Sphiwe and him being stuck in the same situation and moment over and over and over again? Which is Sphiwe " I need money" but i won't ask Lndiwe for help, " I need money" - "stuff you Lindiwe, you are too famous and im the man i should not beg or lean on you" , " I need money" ,haibo im tired of it already
Where was Mavesta? Where are the henchman? Wheres Mhloti and her irritating offsprings? Wheres Moferefere and his devious plan? Haaibo Jabu I know it's cool to have character driven stories but what about the general plot of the story,if it does not advance it why are we made to watch it?
Maybe I got the short end of the stick,those who saw redeeming grace in last night episode please educate me? For now im gatvol.
