Can we discuss the acting quality? Hamilton Dlamini absolutely killed it as Banzi
Agreed! He brought so much depth to his character 🤯
@NoahCöté TBH I found some of the actors a bit over-the-top sometimes. But maybe that’s just me
@PabloMartinez yessss, the mid-season was a bit rough, but that twist was EVERYTHING
I’m from a country where everyone’s always fighting tbh I enjoyed Isithembiso way more than ‘Generations’ lol
But then again, some shows rely on formula to keep ppl hooked I dunno lol what do y’all think?
Just finished the whole series. Banzi’s character development was insane. The acting? 👏
Not a fan of Banzi’s character. Thought he ruined the whole show for me. What a shame
@EszterTóth hahaha I know what you mean! Those telenovela tropes can get real old real fast
Best Mzansi Magic show ever! Can’t get enough of Nqobile’s wisdom
@AyandaVilakazi tbh it’s all about the relationships & the drama 🤣
@EduardoDosSantosJr I agree, he was pretty annoying at times. Can we talk about the plot holes though?
Loved it! Finale was epic!
what happened to Khaya at the end tho? 😂
@SiphoNdlovu I was wondering the same thing. Maybe he’ll be in a spin-off? TBH would watch
First 5 episodes were kinda slow but then it picked up. Loved the twist at the end
