Yimiphi imibukiso ye-TV emi-3 ephezulu oyibuke kakhulu futhi ngani?
Ngiyavuma, uchungechunge lwami engiluthanda kakhulu kwakuyi-The Americans. Njengoba ngakhula ngawo-1980, ngangiziqonda izingubo zokugqoka, izinwele, imihlobiso, nokuntuleka kwezindlela zokuxhumana (kwakungekho i-Internet, i-e-mail, izingcingo eziphathwayo, njll.). Izindlela zokuxhumana ezilinganiselwe yizo ezaholela ezindaweni zokulahla ulwazi oluyimfihlo kule nkathi, ezaziyisiqinisekiso esivamile kulo mbukiso. Kodwa okubaluleke nakakhulu, ngiyakhumbula ukuthi kwakunjani ukukhula ngesikhathi seMpi Yomshoshaphansi. Sasisaqhuba izivivinyo zezindiza ezihleliwe esikoleni sami samabanga aphansi njalo njengoba sasiba nezivivinyo zomlilo! Lapho siseyizingane, sasiqiniseka ukuthi impi yenuzi yayizokwenzeka ngolunye usuku, ngisho noma abantu abadala babezama ukusitshela ukuthi kwakungenjalo. Njengoba ngakhulela endaweni eqhele ngamakhilomitha angu-40 ukusuka eNew York City, nganginesiqiniseko sokuthi ngangizofa ngemva nje kwemizuzwana nje kunikezwe isibhamu samandla enuzi edolobheni. Okulandelayo engikuthanda kakhulu yiYellowstone. Lona umbukiso obonakala uthakazelisa cishe wonke umuntu ngoba unezigigaba eziningi ezinhle zaseNtshonalanga (eMontana), idrama yomkhaya, nezimpi phakathi kwabalingiswa abanamaphutha. Lolu chungechunge lusalokhu luqhubeka futhi angisakwazi ukulinda ukuba kukhishwe isiqephu esilandelayo! Ngingasho ukuthi eyesibili engiyithandayo yi-Billions. Kuwuchungechunge lweminyaka eminingana edlule esavele sazithola. Sisesikhathini sesibili sezinkathi ezingu-5 noma ezingu-6 zizonke, futhi ngigxile kakhulu kubalingiswa, ikakhulukazi uBobby Axelrod (Ax), noChuck noWendy Rhoades. Bonke banomdlandla kakhulu futhi bagxile kulokho abakwenzayo, ngakho kwenza kube nokuxhumana okuthakazelisa kakhulu nokuguquka kwendaba! Futhi kumelwe nginikeze uPerry Mason ukunconywa okuvelele. Nakuba lokhu kunguchungechunge olusha kakhulu, ngiyithanda ngokuphelele le drama yesikhathi kuze kube manje. Abadali basekele iziqephu eziningi ezenzakalweni zangempela ezifanayo ezivela kule nkathi (ama-1930). Kunzima kakhulu ukubukela uDella Street, ohlakaniphe ngokungenangqondo futhi onomusa, ehlehliselwa 'emqondweni womuntu' (uPerry Mason) ngoba kungama-1930. Ngiyabonga ngokufunda! Ngangikujabulela ukucabangisisa ngezintandokazi zami futhi ngizitshele abanye.
