E3 - Blaze drives under the Olifantsfontein bridge on the N1 South and ends up...? In Mauritius? HUH?! Olifantsfontein bridge is a wormhole through space and time now? Blaze has *the world's most distinctive* wallpaper I've ever seen, which then mysteriously turns up in his GF's flat?? HUH?! Blaze jumps out of a car in Sandton CBD and walks into a kitchen with UK plugs on the wall? HUH?! E4 - The whole crew drive to ORTI to fly *to* Mauritius, but the airport used for the location is actually Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International *in Mauritius*. Blaze constantly drives around *Joburg* (Sandton specifically), but the backgrounds are all tropical and the vegetation is all wrong (Port Louis in the background)? HUH?!
Couple that with bizarre dialogue, bizarre storyline and stilted acting and you have a must miss production. Its mind-blowingly sloppy production.

Great imagination, strong storyline, some exciting new concepts. looking forward to the next few seasons to see how the plot thickens.

They tried to copy HBO's BALLERS and instead got it so bad. The story is superficial and the holes in the storylines severely compromised the intent of the filmmakers. Not enough research was done. Why didn't they ask Mike Makaab a true legend in sourcing Africa's football talent.or perhaps use CANAL+ RESOURCES to engage with talent agencies across North Africa and smaller leagues in Europe? The only good thing I take from this show is that I recognized two international actors. One from Viva Riva, Marnie Malone and the French actor playing the rival agent. They were wasted and even their participation in the series did nothing but dent the prospects of the show becoming an international headliner. South african stories need the magic of competent writers, screen method actors and directors who know how to conduct acting talent to making them compelling to watch. I give this show a lousy 2/10. An epic failure.

Great storyline and some good acting but there is only one black female in the cast and she's a PA. Its an obvious case of colorism. For an African series with an African cast this is disappointing.
Wonderful that South African stories are being told. The more the better because of our rich and diverse culture.

It's a South African series and I thought it could be on the level of Queen Sono or Blood and Water.. To my disappointment Agent is not all that good, bad acting, confusing storyline some scenes are over exaggerated and some are under. There needs to be harmony and keep us glued to each episode...
