South Africans had mixed reactions on the return of singing competition Idols SA and the new judges on the show.

‘Idols SA’ is set to return for an 18th season on 17 July with ‘Gomora’ actress Thembi Seete and music executive JR Bogopa as judges.

‘Gomora’ viewers are anticipating Nkosinathi Cele and Gladys Dlamini’s love story after last night’s episode.

‘Gomora’ viewers are unimpressed with Moshe Ndiki’s character Mr Faku
and his storyline. They’re demanding writers to get rid of him.

Former ‘The River’ actor Fezile Makhanya who’s joined ‘Gomora’ as Principal Nkosinathi Cele opens up about his role.

The teasers reveal that actor Moshe Ndiki will debut in June as Gladys’ old friend and Gomora High’s new teacher Mr Andile Faku.

From being a very vocal fan of ‘Gomora’ to bagging a role on the telenovela as a teacher, Moshe Ndiki shares about his character.

Mzansi Magic has confirmed that ‘Muvhango’ and ‘The Queen’ actor – Fezile Makhanya has joined ‘Gomora’ this season.

‘Gomora’ viewers are in awe of Thembi Seete’s character this season… Gladys Dlamini and the actress are now similar.

‘Gomora’ actress and ‘Idols SA’ judge Thembi Seete says she aims to empower young people on the singing competition.

Many viewers have tweeted their disappointment at the new trio of ‘Idols SA’ judges, who were unveiled on Wednesday…

Somizi Mhlongo, Thembi Seete and JR Bogopa are officially the season 18 judges of ‘Idols SA’. Take a look…

Viewers of ‘Gomora’ are criticising the writer’s for repeating the love triangle storyline between Thati, Melusi and Gladys this season.

Melusi will cheat on Gladys again with Thati … Will Thati marry Phumlani when she discovers his secrets on their wedding day?

Thembi Seete is taking TikTok by storm but not everyone is loving it. One tweep tried to drag the musician but locals quickly shut her down.

Viewers are disappointed that Zodwa is the one who pulled the trigger instead of Melusi’s alter ego.

The beauty queen says she’s obsessed with the storylines on the hit telenovela.

Melusi has finally realised that Thati is not the woman for him and wants to make amends with his wife, Gladys.

Melusi’s wife and mistress will now make peace; Thati killed Gladys’s unborn baby, and Gladys killed Thati’s son, Langa.

After Thembi Seete’s guest appearance on ‘Idols SA’ on Sunday, Tweeps have been in awe of her age-defying beauty.

Thembi Seete was last night’s guest judge on ‘Idols SA’ and Mzansi loved it. Many of them called on her to be Somizi’s permanent replacement.

Ndiki has joined the growing list of ‘Gomora’ viewers who have criticised Zolisa Xaluva’s character on the show .

Melusi may have moved into MamSonto’s house to be with Thati last night but this is temporary.

Thati and Gladys will be even in October, after she causes Gladys’s miscarriage. The death of her unborn baby will confuse Melusi even more.

Mzansi Wethu viewers would be able to watch DStv’s most-watched sopaie, ‘Gomora’, as from 27 September.
