The show has an amazing cast and it is clear that a lot of thought went into each scene's setting. Sadly, the same cannot be said for the plot. It progresses at a pace far too fast to be considered immersive for a drama series. It sometimes feels as if the show is a summary or review of some original somewhere.

While the creators obviously had their reasons for selecting that style of storytelling, the absence of some mundane details came at a huge risk of lacking relatability. This may make it easily forgettable and easy to dismiss. But it still has huge potential and kudos to all involved in its production.

Lack of originality? Maybe.

I really enjoyed the show, but after watching Unmarried (Nigerian series), I lost some respect for the show. If you watch just the first episode of unmarried, the plot is EXACTLY THE SAME as that for Single kiasi. I don't know who copied who, but there was clearly a lack of originality.

It made me wonder if maybe the producers are the same and wanted to tap into the different market niches? What could be the reason for the same plot for two different shows in two different countries? I wish I could get an answer to this because I felt cheated after watching a very similar show acted and produced in another country.
