The Lebo Mathosa Story. What did you think about the first episode?
The Lebo Mathosa Story. What did you think about the first episode?
All eyes were on Dream: The Lebo Mathosa Story on Wednesday night when the highly anticipated biopic premiered on BET Africa.
The reviews are not all good as many viewers were disappointed with the overall production. Come to think of it, since the announcement of the cast members after auditions were concluded, the show has been under scrutiny with many criticizing the lead actress KB Motsilanyane and Bahumi. But that was the last thing on everyone's mind as majority of the people say KB was not the problem.
By the look of things, people's fears came true and let's just say - many want to forget it ever happened.
For some, excluding Lebo Mathosa's Boom Shaka days was a huge contributor to the poor reception the show received. And for others, 'replacing' KB with actress Thandy Matlaila is not such a bad idea.
Am I the only one who thinks Thandy Matlaila could have done a better job? #LeboMathosaBET 😕 pic.twitter.com/9P0fkD769e

I understand it's Lebo mathosa story. But I feel like not including boom shaka into the series that's disrespectful... I mean that's the foundation of Lebo mathosa!! #LeboMathosaBET pic.twitter.com/WQ6nMFOci1

Hopefuls are waiting on the remaining episodes which will see Bahumi's role as the younger Lebo.
