My Tinsel Town...how Far With The TV Soap? by marvelck: 5:09pm On Apr 13, 2012
With the way this popular TV soap is going, it might not be around by next year. Cos, the storyline seem to be weak and it seems they also dont have stories to tell anymore. Most of the cast are trying, and are even capable of acting anywhere on the continent. but when the storylines are weak, the cast tend to perform below par sometimes. Telema and Kwame's marital issue is weak and should be done away with. Even Shalewa's agitation for her dad's release from prison is better. atleast its a bit funny. Philip and his dad's road trip to Lokoja is somehow taken a lifetime. Maybe Lokoja is now in Ghana. Cos, they seem to be stuck on a particular road forever. Please the director and the writers of this award winning soap, should do something to improve the storylines. They should give us issues that are bound to captivate the viewers like Jacob cross and Changes. The storylines on Tinsel are most times predictable and weak. Like the typical nollywood stories. Even one of the cast complained about the same thing the other day. Tinsel ought to be an international brand, and not for local audience only. We need to raise the bar, the more...


PS: And please, can anyone tell me what happened to the chuk's character on the soap. Cos it's only Ene I've been seeing. where is chuks? I guess they want to kill the character. cos to me, the guy playing the role of chuks, is not trying at all.

I believe the guy playing the "Chuks" character probably had a real life accident or medical condition. He stayed too long on crutches for it not to have been what happened in real life.

You'd also notice that "Amaka" also seemed to have gotten pregnant in real life so they wrote a script to kind of accommodate the situation.

By and by, Tinsel is a good production but they do not to improve on the storyline truly.

I know about Chuks and Ene. And for your information, they are already married. And I also know Dan is shalewa's real father. I've seen all of that and more. I guess you're still behind from where you are watching the soap.

Tinsel is still running strong... Your destructive criticism and prediction of its failure within one year were futile...
