Those far-fetched fantasies

I wish journalism was as glamorous as it is portrayed on etv's Scandal!. The soap omits the bone-crushing boredom of much newspaper work and never shows the mind-bending tediousness, the petty office politics and routines that characterise average days of journalists.HThato's character seems to be a The Bold and the Beautiful replica. Thato (Rami Chuene) is like Brooke, bedding all men on sight. When the soap started, it was a big, sweeping romantic fantasy, with romance and true love. Now they seem to want to get more bang for the buck with more sensational plots. Tell me why Mangie is now Daniel's son. How did it happen? After the departure of Luthuli Dlamini, who played Stan, the producers have been trying to pull together some loose threads and in doing so, they have lost the element of believability. HIn case you thought Luthuli Dlamini was jobless, he is starring in a hilarious M-Net comedy The Coconuts. And he rocks, as usual. I laughed my lungs out. HStill on soaps, Generations is not for real. Tell me, is it realistic for Karabo to force the police to arrest her even though they don't want to? Not even a lunatic wants to be behind bars. Come on people, give us some credit. HI thing Dicksy Ngqula is underrated. He should be the one hosting the Blow by Blow show. He is eloquent and he knows boxing very well.
