Programme Critique, Mayelle Helene (08-0028)

Local TV programmes in Kenya are definitely getting better by the day. It's been a long journey for local film industry and I must point out that it's paying off very well considering the final product we now see on our screens. Programmes like Mother-in law make want to shout “Najivunia kuwa mkenya”!!!!, they are deep-the the production standards, the stories they tell are real to us, we can identify with characters and make necessary changes in our lives (i believe mama Charity-Mother in law is not the monster portrayed in the show but there definitely some mothers-in law like that character and i believe if they saw their 'image' on that screen, they would curse the day they became monster to their families and hopefully work on changing their life styles. So, like I often say when I'm feeling so proud to be African as a result of a POSITIVE outcome in Africa by an African, " Only we can tell our staries the way they ought to be told and only then can we change our society for the better. We are great people with great talents, skills, positive energy and even resources!! Lets put all these and more together and make the beautiful continent a better place for all mankind-black, white, yellow, blue, green, orange, what ever the colour, race, socio-economic, plotical status, etc we must continue to accomodate, or even accommodate the more. Oh how I love this our beautiful Africa....

  1. Hellen, this critique is too general. Relate the specific episode you watched to what we learn in scripting class.
