It's a risk...... There you go again. Exposing the show's weakness. It comes out like an ego trip for Mr. Madowo, in which regard, if he is having a bad day, the show sucks. My daughter asked me to come watch a recent show where local drama divas were on, knowing my love for women who have an excellent command of the English language. When it came for the "selfies" the metal eater was left out, exposing Mr. Madowo's personal weakness and hence the show's. At one point, we loved Tisha Wanjiku but look at what happened when Shitishen gave her her own show?

If, God forbid, Kiefer Sutherland were to drop dead today, the 24 television series would go into cardiac arrest if not instant death. Churchill Show and its spin off Churchill Raw would not skip a beat if Daniel Ndambuki, God forbid, dropped dead. Are you aware Trend was picked from someone else yet he was able to "own" it and give it a personal touch? Many predicted it will die but I think he has done well this far.

Fret not. He will not get it. Not if I have something to do about it. And please, let us give the ... his due. It is Madowo and not Madondo.

I think hapa shida ni "generation/age".If you are between 26-35yrs...you will LOVE the Trend plus Larry.If you are older, you will keep hating. It is just the same way I hate KISS Tv shows yet your kids love them. Formally employed people often live their employers' dream & forget about their own.

Has it occurred to you that several personalities who would have performed much better turned down the job. I have heard names bandied around who rejected it such as Wallace, Ms. Kobi, Ms. Mwanyiga, Ms Smiti et al.

In my rebuttal, I beg to quote @Murchr in an earlier post on this thread. He says: That age group is busy clubbing on Friday and Saturday there's no time for news.
They have just discovered alcohol and are fascinated by women (and men and babies).
So try to think again are they really watching madowo? No.
I once spoke to one of those bigmen in NTV and he told me that Kenyans (18-35) are not watching programmed tv anymore, they are watching sports or movies/seasons which they can easily get from maDVD guy.Your witness....

Further, the poster on Facebook of this Photoshop image herein below falls squarely in the age bracket you give. In my humble opinion, it is a screaming statement on the status of Mr. Madowo's ego.

Yaani some people hate madowo so much that they had to spend hours photo shopping the piksha and clone him?
