Mzansi viewers enjoy a wide range of telenovelas but a few favourites always stand out. The Queen and Gomora have both been trending over the weeks but for different reasons. Audiences seem to be loving the refreshing new Gomora but are not too impressed with the current storyline on The Queen.

It seems there’s no clear winner here and each show has its own audience that its best suited for. Meanwhile, we previously reported that Gomora is dominating the TV screens and fans can’t get enough of the show’s talented cast. Many Mzansi social media users have taken a liking to Sana Mchunu.

The actress plays the amusing Zodwa Zondi. She’s a hot mess and viewers absolutely love it. After Teddy was taken from her, Zodwa will stop at nothing to get him back. Her convincing acting skills have had viewers calling for her to receive the highest honour in the acting industry.

The viewers have compared the two hit telenovelas.

thaboreagan said: “The Fergusons have lost the touch… The moment your head grow so big that you even think you bigger than your audience, the harder you fall. Their time to be exposed is coming in due course. Right now there is no difference between #TheQueenMzansi and #GenerationsTheLegacy. Shame”
