By now it’s well-known news that SABC is reducing 7de Laan episodes to three a week from 1 April 2021. For many people, it will be a hard pill to swallow, having become used to having their soapie on 5 days a week. I actually don’t know how SABC came to the conclusion to reduce
While I haven’t been blogging about 7de Laan, I have been watching at least a few times a week. Sometimes more, sometimes fewer episodes, depending on the drama or if 7de Laan trended on Twitter. I always watch on VIU though. 7de Laan broadcast it’s 5000th episode during the 1st week of January. I was
For years many 7de Laan viewers, especially on Twitter, complained about 7de Laan’s lack of a gay storyline.

I seriously loved the reveal and laughed with delight. Not so much the fact that Justin is now all of a sudden De Wet’s biological son, but just the
A few years ago, I used to write articles called my 7 Wishes for 7De Laan. I used to have quite a few frustrations back in the day. Now, though I don’t have many, and certainly not 7 things I would change. Maybe because of YouTube and VIU, it feels more like a choice than
So in last night’s 7De Laan, Esti gave the impression that she’s still into Rickus and she implied that she was disappointed that Rickus hadn’t fought hard for her.

A crew member on 7de Laan has unfortunately contracted the COVID-19 virus, which means the entire set – cast and crew – had to be shut down to be infected and those who came into contact with the member of the crew has to also self-isolate. It’s not been stated how many new un-aired episodes
I watched Errol’s return episode on Viu a day after the episode aired so knew Errol was the one to save Mariaan’s life by the time I turned my computer on. But it was still so nice to see Errol Pieterse again, back home from visiting Johannesburg after moving away. I wonder if Errol had
