Still Breathing

Loved this series. Well done to all concerned. The characters stayed in my mind long after each episode. They felt like MY family and MY friends. Typically South African lives and sentiments. Here's hoping there's a second season!

What a fantastic success for the South African film industry. I never watch locally produced shows because, to be honest, I pre-judge them as being bad without giving them a shot.

I watched a random part of episode 4 and it felt like it could have been episode 1 because of the tension, emotion and investment that the show commands in such a short space of time. Needless to say I had to start from episode 1 and not miss a thing.

It explores a broad range of themes, some of which are local to South Africa, and some of which are universal.

English speaking South Africans and their experiences are very rarely represented in the media so it made me feel comforted and even nostalgic, seeing my own experiences on the screen. I feel like I have met these characters and I can relate to all of them.

Above all, this story opens the curtain into the dark shadow of every character's life and proves that everyone has their own struggles behind the perfect veneers. So let's keep breathing and smell the roses. I can't wait for episode 8!

The show idea about a layer who had to take a flight and then an accident happened had to to try her way out to survive, the main issues is that if we want to make a memory tape it should be in one individual episode not in every 4 minutes its like watching ad that does not add anything to the story , despite that the acting is nice the music were good and the WB studio well known , it could have been better and my rating is true not 5 not 4or 3 sadly.

Eish, makes Mattewis en Maraai look like the happiest comedy ever. Romeo and Juliet? Shakespear had no idea when it comes to tragedy. Every episode is thick with anger, sorrow, loss, grieving and misery. Make sure you're up to it or be prepared to reach for the toaster in the bath. I know things in SA are tough, but this is hectic. How these adults made it to adulthood is a mystery.

Arguably the best series ever produced in South Africa. The acting and writing is absolutely stellar. Impeccable acting with an excellent storyline. Every episode makes you wanting more. Danny is brilliant, had me in tears on more than one occasion. Candice - love to hate her character. Finally, a worthy South African television production that rivals the rest of the world.
