--
Viewers are losing interest in the show and have taken to social media to complain about the show's storylines.
The show also competes with SABC1's most-watched soapie - Uzalo which also airs at 20:30.
Fans were excited when the show replaced Isibaya in 2021 as its cast includes some of Mzansi's most-talented stars such as the award-winning actress Dawn Thandeka King, Giyani: Land of Blood actor Obed Baloyi and the award-winning actors Mduduzi Mabaso and Hamilton Dlamini.
