Why We Need Everyone to Go Watch ‘Blood & Water’ on Netflix (Like Right Now)

Now, this show has everything: Drama, angst, romance, love triangles and did we mention drama? But most of all, this show will have you glued to your television screen from beginning to end. Every episode ends on a cliffhanger and we found ourselves immediately having to click on the next episode to find out what happens. It’s impossible not to get drawn into Puleng’s mystery (as she channels her innerNancy Drew).

What truly makesBlood & Waterso great is the show is led by a talented Black ensemble cast. In this show, the main characters are mostly of South African descent—a rarity for a streaming series. It’s so refreshing to see this type of representation on screen at a time when platforms are actively trying to increase diversity and inclusion within shows and movies.

Earlier this week, Netflix released the first look teaser forBlood & Waterseason three and let’s just say it looks J-U-I-C-Y. In the short clip, we see the return of all our favorite characters, including Puleng (Qamata), Fikile (Ngema), Wade (Dillon Windvogel), Reece (Greteli Fincham) and Chris (Arno Greeff). And the teaser ends with the official release date flashing across the screen: November 25, 2022.
