Entertainment commentator Phil Mphela has lambasted Mzansi Magic's The Queen for playing the same scenes for weeks on end.
--
This is after viewers of the telenovela complained about the poor storylines on the show since the exits of SK Khoza and Cindy Mahlangu.
#TheQueenMzansi are you aware your episodes have been playing the same scenes for two weeks with just minor changes.
Literally the same conversations doing the same thing.
The story is not moving forward.
Come on. Let's move!

CURRENT STORYLINE Viewers have been watching the Khozas arguing with Norma about Goodness, Kagiso (Loyiso McDonald), and taking Mvelo from Goodness for two weeks.
Goodness (Zenande Mfenyane) was in a coma from a car accident, then woke up and slipped back into the coma.
The Sebatas have also been struggling to come to terms with Vuyiswa's decision to have a baby for weeks.
Vuyiswa (Zandile Msutwana) fell pregnant but is now opting to have an abortion because her husband doesn't kids anymore.

VIEWERS REACT TO PHIL MPHELA'S TWEET Fans of the show have asked the production company - Ferguson Films to request actress Rami Chuene to return to the show to play the role of Tgom Mabuza.
Viewers also agree that the show has gotten worse since SK Khoza exited the show for the second time last year (2021).
SK played the role of Shaka Khoza alongside Themba Ndaba who played his uncle - Brutus Khoza.
@Lindoku17820702:
The best I did for myself was to stop watching The Queen.
@thesexysam12:
Every day it's the same I've been saying this .. we keep hearing about Kagiso who is no longer on the show.
The Queen has no plan they are pushing time every day no clear storyline.
@MimzMol:
I haven't watched since Goodness woke up from her coma.
That's like two weeks ago. Something tells me I haven't missed much.
Watching The Queen has become such a schlep!

They had to improvise the story line a lot over the last 8 months or so. One got fired.two left. One of the producers died,that affected the lead character. another one got injured on set. I m not surprised. They just need to stabilize the ship. They will be fine
