This is a great series. Unfortunately, it is not available in most countries outside of Africa, which is a shame. I used to love watching the queen and i miss it, Dstv should make an overseas service, or simply allow it for us to watch it.

This series is great... it has lots of action / drama and twists, with added romance. It definitely keeps you interested and at the same time guessing what's going to happen next...

The Queen series, in my opinion is by far one of the best series that I have seen. There is so much that I can say about it, all good of course, but you really just have to watch it for yourself, you will not be disappointed.

What I would like to know is are you bringing in all 7 of the series to be available to watch? And if so what is the time frame they will available to see?

That would be absolutely wonderful!!!

I loved the series, but she was a little to soft to be a drug queen pin. Her idiotic family was tiresome, except for Kea. Kagiso a spoiled little boy no mental heart. Shaka was kind of mixed between being hard and indecisive. Brutus a bumbling fool. It can't end like that. Bring on Part 2, episode 209 or episode one; with the title "It was all a dream ", but Jerry is still gone, and his son fills his shoes but not a craze like his father. Vee gets a life. Amo grows up, mentally. Kgosi is either a hardass gangster gay or have better hardass connections. Harriet becomes a hardass drug queen pin. Kwanele finally becomes a 30 yo man.

"The Queen" follows the lives of two families living the high life while being involved in criminal activities. The plot touches on themes of power, betrayal, and family dynamics. While these themes are intriguing, the execution can sometimes feel heavy-handed, with certain plot points feeling forced or overly dramatic. The tendency to recycle story arcs-such as power struggles and romantic entanglements-can make the show feel predictable and repetitive.

Character Development The characters in "The Queen" are well-acted, but their development can be inconsistent. The protagonist's journey of self-discovery is central to the story, yet some supporting characters feel underdeveloped, serving more as plot devices than fully realized individuals. This lack of depth can detract from the overall narrative. Additionally, the frequent cast changes can disrupt character arcs and continuity.

Production Quality The production quality of "The Queen" is generally high, with well-executed scenes and realistic settings. However, there are moments where the direction feels lacking, and the pacing can be uneven. Some scenes drag on unnecessarily, while others feel rushed, disrupting the flow of the story. While the sets and locations are generally impressive, there are moments when the execution does not live up to the high standards expected from a show of this caliber.

Audience Reception "The Queen" has received mixed reviews from audiences. While many appreciate the performances and the unique premise, others find the show's pacing and character development lacking. The balance between drama and entertainment is delicate, and at times, the show leans too heavily on melodrama.

Criticisms One of the main criticisms of "The Queen" is its reliance on clichés and predictable plot twists. The storylines, while engaging, can sometimes feel repetitive, with familiar tropes being used to drive the narrative. Additionally, the show's attempt to blend humor and drama can feel disjointed, with comedic moments feeling out of place in the more serious context.

Conclusion "The Queen" is a series with potential, featuring strong performances and a unique premise. However, it struggles with inconsistent character development, pacing issues, and reliance on clichés. While it offers moments of emotional depth and entertainment, it falls short of its full potential. For viewers looking for a well-rounded and polished series, "The Queen" may be a mixed experience.

The show hangs on to a boring villain like the actor playing diamond begs them to not kill his character
