Far from Home (2022)
THE SERIES IS JUST ALL OVER THE PLACE
The main character, Ishaya Bello, is he a high school student or what? The art teacher calls him a year 1 student but he was dating a girl who is already up and running her business?
The father of the guy he cleans for gets angry at his son for not winning the scholarship but somehow he is still going to the school? Make it make sense.
How do you kidnap and con your friend 20million N and the still agree to house you after the ptsd caused? Which parents would allow that?
How is a teacher not angry that a student's 'uncle' is randomly strangling him in school?
Why would you need 150k to apply to a scholarship for the needy? Like what kind of institution does that?
Why is Atlas' mum able to bribe the owners of the school? What is the past relationship they have that allows this? Why don't they reveal that Atlas was the one driving and the blame went to Carmen in the car accident? Like what were they trying to cover up? This piece of the story is missing.
Are there teachers in institutions that openly call out poor students? Because why did the teacher call Ishaya Mr Scholarship on day one? Not to mention the rude secretary in the school.
Security cameras are in the school but they didn't catch Frank's kidnapping?
There's too much going on and not enough at the same time. The series felt like filler which was surprising considering it's only 5 episodes. They need to do better.
Props to the sets and makeup artists, they did a good job.
Too much repetition of the same songs throughout, surely Nigeria has an abundance of music.
Country Queen (2022)
A YAWN FEST
The story has been completely dragged out into what could have been a movie. For a show with only 6 episodes you expect to have each episode with a good storyline but they just contain filler and no real substance. Had to complete the show because I was expecting it would get more intriguing but it was just plain, boring and simple. Nothing worth writing home about and definitely does not deserve a second season. Surely Kenyans really need to up their game.
