Generations the legacy has gotten more viewers recently because of it’s traumatic storyline involving Sphe, Winston and Mia. The storyline has been so powerful that a lot of it’s viewers applauded the soapie for showcasing what is really happening in Mzansi.
Viewers were happy that the soapie was showing exactly what happens in South Africa. Sometimes a crime gets committed and innocent people get arrested for a crime they did not commit. It truly does happen that criminals walk freely after they had committed a crime, and it does happen that the police will just let them walk freely.
We all know a lot of people who committed crimes and have never been arrested, some might have just been questoned and released. The South African Police Services is disappointing and most communities have resorted to mop justice to deal with criminals.
Below is how Generations’ viewers commented on the storyline.

manners”
Gugu Gee Ndwandwe wrote, “This is showing us how saps failed people of mzansi.this is reality💔💔”
Veli Velisto Msibi wrote, “This is the thing that’s happening these days. Police officers go for the innocent and they let the criminals get away. I’m glad Mazwi told Pele about his stupidity yet he already knew it was Winston all along. What more evidence did he want. I’m sure Mia wouldn’t have been killed if it wasn’t for his ego”
Thembisa Holo wrote, “THIS IS A DISGRACE TO THE POLICING FRATERNITY REALLY A VERY BIG DISGRACE AS ALWAYS & AS USUAL WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THAT FILM IS WHAT IS HAPPENING IN REALITY OR REAL LIFE THEY MUST GO AND ASK FOR CHANGE OF THEIR FEES FROM THE SCHOOLS THEY USED TO TRAIN TO BECOME POLICE SOME OF THEM NOT ALL OF THEM.” who also added,” This shows how stupid the police are really here so very stupid , letting the guilty one go free and arresting an innocent person as usual . ”
