- Action
- Substantial plot
On Storytelling: is Fatal Seduction Worth watching?
Fatal Seduction is a re-imagination of the popular Spanish show âDark Desireâ, which means familiar viewers already know what to expect. To be honest, the storytelling of the show is on point. The way the story is being told captivates us enough to want to know more of what is actually going on.

On Action: is Fatal Seduction Worth watching?
Kudos to the experienced actors (especially Kgomotso Christopher and Prince Grootbroom)Â who worked to bring Fatal Seduction to life, especially the major characters. But there is only so much actors can do to carry a show. And despite its very almost second-by-second display of sex and intense sordid affair, even sex cannot save the show no matter how hot the characters are, and yes, there is a lot of sex it gets tiring.
Substantial Plot: is Fatal Seduction Worth watching?
The plot of Fatal Seduction is simple. A Professor gets into an extra-marital affair with one of her students who turns out to be connected to a case her husband worked on several years ago. However, the convoluted screenplay and the murder of one of the major characters make the show seem like there is much to bite from.

About Fatal Seduction
The marriage of Nandi Mahlati (Kgomotso Christopher) and Leonard (Thapelo Mokoena) is on the verge of disintegrating due to a recent miscarriage that has strained their bond.
She finds a troubling text from his secretary Ameera (Rizelle Januk), which appears to suggest the two of them are having an affair, making the situation much worse.
Nandi exacts her retribution by having an affair with a younger man while on a much-needed trip with her best friend Brenda (Lunathi Mampofu).
When Brenda is discovered dead and those closest to her are among the suspects, Nandi, who is returning home alone, is once again crushed and overcome with guilt for her adultery.
Relationships may be challenging, especially if you decide to cheat on your partner because you believe they are cheating on you and find yourself in the middle of a murder investigation. Thatâs the situation one married couple finds themselves in in the suspenseful South African series Fatal Seduction, created by Steven Pillemer (The Brave Ones) and starring Kgomotso Christopher, Prince Grootboom, and Thapelo Mokoena. A married woman has a passionate affair with a younger guy while on a fateful weekend trip, but when the relationship ends tragically, she starts to wonder if the people closest to her are telling the truth.
While grieving a recent miscarriage that has put her love for her husband, Leonard, to the test, Nandi finds a strange text on his phone from his young and attractive new secretary, Ameera. This puts her on edge as she leaves for a weekend getaway with her closest friend, Brenda. Brenda tries to reason with Nandi throughout their opulent vacation and even prods her to hook up with a hot guy they see on the beach. Even though Jacob is much younger, the two finally cross paths and bond instantly (and strongly physically).
The following day, Nandi leaves Brenda behind and returns home, returning to daily life and her growing misgivings about Leonard. Brenda is shortly found dead, and the case may be linked to not only another homicide but also everyone in Nandiâs inner circle.
