Netflix’s 2024 batch of family crime dramas have been quite the test of patience. Things started off pretty rocky with Fool Me Once, which featured rich people doing murderous things (I watched it in January and I don’t remember the details). That was followed by The Brothers Sun, which was packed with some of the most enjoyable stunts and a lot of heartwrenching mother-son drama. The streaming platform lulled me into a sense of comfort with the equally amazing House of Ninjas, which was about, you guessed it, a family full of Shinobi facing a deadly threat. Then, things started to go off the rails. Eric was all over the place. Tribhuvan Mishra CA Topper established some sort of stability. But the triple-punch delivered by The Accident, The Perfect Couple, and Blood Legacy demolished the genre’s reputation. And, while I thought they were done with this nonsense, now...

Season 1 of Blood Legacy ended on a cliffhanger, and though, as of now, there is no official announcement of season 2, I believe that the showrunners will come up with a second installment and give closure to its long list of characters. Khanyi got arrested at the end of season 1, as her own uncle framed her for the murder of her father. As far as Mandla was concerned, he had made some bad choices, and because of his greed to be the heir to the Ndlovu empire, he was stuck in a mess. So, let’s theorize what fate could have in store for the various members of the Ndlovu family and if they would be able to overcome the obstacles that came their way.

Netflix is home to shows hailing from a variety of genres. It releases so many projects in any given year that it’s hard to keep track of everything that’s available on the streaming platform. But, based on what I have seen, Netflix has been really, really struggling with the family drama genre. And it’s a very specific kind of family drama where an intentional or unintentional crime exposes the fabric of a household or community. Towards the end of August, we got The Accident, which was about a close-knit group of families coming apart at the seams after several kids were killed when a bouncy castle became airborne. It was truly one of the most atrocious things I had ever watched. That was followed by The Perfect Couple, where a posh family came undone because of the illegal activities of its members. It seemed like all the...

Blood Legacy’s ending is centered around the resolution to the revelation that the deceased owner of Spear and former head of the Ndlovu family, Bhekisizwe, was murdered by his brother, Visu Ndlovu. Bhekisizwe was married to Madlamini, and they had three children: Mandla, Khanyi, and Siya. Mandla’s wife had died a long time ago, and he had two kids, Thuli and Zakhele. Khanyi was married to Akin Adesina, and they had two children, Amahle and Njabulo. Siya was married to Gabisile, and they had a son, Nido. Bhekisizwe was in his twilight years, and he was tired of being blackmailed by the A6 leaders, Liyana and Msizi Vesi, into letting Spear’s containers be used to ship illegal stuff like guns. So he started pushing back against their threats. Apart from dealing with these terrorists, Bhekisizwe had to choose his successor. Even though Mandla and Siya were the...
