Happy 22nd birthday to Gomora Actress Ama Qamata (Buhle),she’s also appeared on Netflix Series BLOOD AND WATER as Puleng…All the best to her🎊🎉🎁🎂❤.When most of us look back at our journeys in high school, we are likely to find that those years played a big role in becoming who we are today.

For some it was the best years of their lives. Top of the food chain, they ran the school from their make-believe thrones.

And for others, it was a miserable time as they were the victims of the fax kings and queens of high school. But whatever your experience may have been, it is likely still one of the years that had such an impact on you.

Hence we sometimes gravitate to TV shows about high schoolers. From the scandalous glamour of “Gossip Girl” and “Elite”; the tragic feeling that was brought by “The O.C”. and the lessons in friendship by “Dawson’s Creek” and “One Tree Hill”. Who can forget “Riverdale”, “Sex Education”, “Stranger Things”, “Euphoria” and the recently released “Never Have I Ever?” which starts streaming on Netflix, Wednesday May 20, is the second African original from the streaming giant.

Starring Natasha Thahane, with Ama Qamata, Khosi Ngema and Thabang Molaba the trailer dropped this week. Set at Parkhurst College, a prestigious school for Cape Town’s elite scholars and academic overachievers, the story follows the exploits of the intelligent, proactive and impulsive 16-year-old Puleng Khumalo.

Puleng engineered her transfer to Parkhurst College to investigate the 17-year-old cold case of her older sister, who was abducted-at-birth.

The trailer showcases the antics of typical rich kids indulging in alcohol, drugs, big house parties and teenage fights.

Here’s a look at some South African teen dramas that were a hit with the audience.
