@cnn: South African actor S’dumo Mtshali says he’ll happily own the title of Netflix’s most hated man ... for now. After his portrayal of Jonasi in “The Polygamist,” fans aren’t just watching the show — they’re holding grudges in real life, still calling him Jonasi everywhere he goes. Behind the internet’s favorite villain is an actor who embraced the challenge of telling a powerful story. #thepolygamist #netflix

IT WAS A BLACK AFRICAN SERIES. AS SUCH, IT WAS TOLD IN ONE OF THE 12 NATIVE LANGUAGES IN SOUTH AFRICA. The world watched money heist (Spanish) series with over 3 seasons in subtitles. The world also watched Squid game (Korean) with subtitles. Allow Africans to shine know our native languages too.
I'm slightly disappointed in Sdumo's seemingly annoyance in this character following him everywhere. The show was introduced to us a month ago, sir, what do you mean "we're stretching this thing..."? Don't be boring please, play into it,bandla.

To the people that are saying they speak good English: we have 12 official languages they could’ve made the show in sign language and still speak good English, we’re South Africans 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

People shocked that they’re so fluent in English when the series was mainly IsiZulu😂the beauty of being South African is that we mix native languages with English in a single conversation,yes,even when we’re incredibly fluent in it😅

I can’t believe people don’t like watching shows where they have to read subtitles. I watch French shows on a random Monday and I don’t want dubbed nonsense either
