Ja-ja, don’t skop a heart attack. We actual legit know how to spell marijuana and that you don’t inject it. We just chose to spreek it uit like a clueless Afrikaans dominee would. Yes, that is in fact how you spell dominee. I know, us Afrikaans okes aren’t lekker. Why are we a distressed dominee this week? Because the judges on The Voice SA made a moerse mistake. Ons is erg beswaard (we are bad sworded) and the okes must maybe rethink how the vaab works and start off with their chairs facing contestants because if you don’t know how to use your ears, you should maybe use your eyes. Kyk hulle in die oë, my ou.
Let’s rather just get to this week’s top ten choice of streaming entertainment in South Africa before we turn into mouth breathing offended old people and pop a head vein.
This week I even wrote a full article in Engels about cowboys and horses and shit. I used up my entire English degree. Like they say in the click-bait headlines: “Number 8 is my favourite”…
What look you this weekend? You look at our lekker list, compliments of The Plumlist.

#8 Are westerns facing the gallows? Back in the 50s to mid-70s, TV and cinema were dominated by traditional westerns. Then the genre quietly went to sleep. And you know what? It had to take a nap because westerns were becoming boring and predictable. Also, you should read this, because I wrote it. |

#6 American Gods!!! We can’t wait for Season 2 of American Gods. Even this opening scene can’t slake our thirst. Do you hear us, Bilquis? We are thirsty for more!The screen adaption of Neil Gaiman’s best-selling novel has been nothing short of visually spectacular. Season 1 of American Gods ended with war being declared and Mr Wednesday (aka Odin, Glad-of-Way, The Allfather) revealing his true identity to Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle). |

#5 Ingrid Goes West is a vapid hot mess Some films are so well written, so beautifully shot and so awe-inspiring that only committed contrarians could possibly claim to dislike them. We’re thinking here of the likes of Amélie, Casablanca, and The Shawshank Redemption. |

[feature_headline type=”left, center, right” level=”h2″ looks_like=”h3″ icon=”lightbulb-o”] Our randomized trailer pick of the week [/feature_headline]
Each week we take a number from 1 to 10 from our list of suggestions and put it through a randomizer to choose a trailer to show you. This week we’re so glad that our randomizer came up with this contestant from The Voice SA. Actually it landed on American Gods first, then we rigged the results.
Right about now, we just need to gooi a disclaimer as well – Rob Edeling is actually a close friend of ours here in good old Plakkietoria, but we don’t need all that bias and nepotism to enjoy his performance of uncle Johnny Cash’s Ring Of Fire on The Voice last week. Judge for yourself. just don’t judge as kak as the judges. You mos have ears?
