99 Thoughts I Had While Watching Netflix’s A Sunday Affair

Pre-watch thoughts: I’m feeling pretty excited to watch this one. Typically, anything with Nse Ikpe Etim or Dakore Egbuson-Akande is usually a good watch. I’ve seen good reviews through the streets of twitter so with fingers crossed and a lot of popcorn, here are 99 real time thoughts I had while watching A Sunday Affair on Netflix.

wiggly line
  1. We love an Ebonylife TV Production
  2. It’s Lagos in 1999 and there are 2 young girls at the beach
  3. Wholesome female friendships? Yes, yes and yes – inject it
  4. It’s Lagos in 2023 now so the girls are way older and are at a wedding ceremony
  5. I agree Nse (Nse Ikpe Etim). He’s indeed a fine man
  6. I love the wedding reception energy
  7. With that fine man over there? There’s no way she’s staying put Dakore (Dakore Egbuson-Akande)
  8. Can they just speak to each other? I’m over the batting of eye lashes
  9. Nse’s character, Uche is freaky freaky
  10. You’re telling me Uche is the Sister of the bride?
  11. Uche invites Sunday (the fine man and Oris Erhuero’s character) to her gallery event the next day
  12. More sex I guess?
  13. It’s the next day. A guy called Sam walks in to see Uche
  14. He’s giving sugar daddy vibes
  15. He is infact a sugar daddy
  16. Uche is giving the gallery welcome speech and an upset Sam interrupts her
  17. Sugar daddy Wahala
  18. Again, female friendships >
  19. Toyin (Dakore Egbuson-Akande’s character) is on a train to Ibadan, and apparently Sunday is on it too
  20. Seems like Toyin is trying to have a baby through artificial insemination
  21. Toyin and Sunday are stuck in Ibadan
  22. Why do I feel a cliché scene coming up?
  23. These ones should not fall in love o
  24. Because the way they are laughing. Hm
  25. Toyin is definitely tipsy
  26. I said it!
  27. Girl if you don’t close the door in his face
  28. Saved by the wife’s call
  29. It’s been a minute I saw the stunning Hilda Dokubo (Uche’s mother). I missed her on my screen!
  30. Uche and Sunday are going out for drinks. Sounds like trouble to me
  31. “I think I might invest in you” > “You are the bane of my existence”
  32. Sunday, Sunday, Sunday
  33. How many times did I call you?
  34. I love how sex positive Nollywood has become
  35. Toyin, if you don’t throw his business card away!
  36. Hitting on 2 best friends in one night? Sunday, I hail o
  37. Ikoyi city boys, see your role model
  38. Girl, he doesn’t need you to buy him a drink I promise
  39. Oops, she bought him the drink
  40. I feel bad for both women, but mostly Toyin
  41. He’s so not going to end it with the girls, but let’s see sha
  42. Sunday is on his way to end it with Uche
  43. Not the strip club red lights!
  44. Oh, but I love it.
  45. Yes ma’am, tie him up!
  46. Uche – 1, Sunday – 0
  47. Okay we’ve seen enough of the yellow Porsche now
  48. It’s a new day and Sunday looks like trouble in a striped suit
  49. Don’t get too excited Toyin, he’s here to break your heart..
  50. ..Or not.
  51. Oh, he’s taking off his suit
  52. Toyin and Sunday are making out now
  53. I’m exasperated
  54. Toyin and Uche are hanging out and dancing, but Toyin seems out of breath and tired
  55. Toyin is tired? Are you thinking what I’m thinking?
  56. This scene where the girls talk about the same guy without giving so much detail is wild to me. And they are supposed to be best friends?
  57. Leave him girls, let him cook
  58. It’s Sunday’s break up rehearsal for me
  59. Ghosting 101 with Sunny Boy
  60. Sunday has successfully broken up with both girls
  61. I have a feeling Toyin is pregnant
  62. Sunday just said he’s in love with both girls. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, a Yoruba demon
  63. Hold my popcorn
  64. I’m stressed out
  65. Toyin has Stage 3 Cervical Cancer? Okay plot twist
  66. Sunday is back in both their lives (Toyin & Uche)
  67. So much chaos
  68. Revelation time: Toyin tells Uche she’s in love with Sunday but she doesn’t know he’s the same guy Uche has also been seeing
  69. Uche is just the sweetest with how she reacted to the revelation. But I wish she confided in Uche
  70. Girl, come take a hug!
  71. Throw this Sunday man away please, with his accent
  72. Oh, Uche is angry and storms into Sunday’s office
  73. Break his head Uche!
  74. Expected more breakage but okay…
  75. At least Toyin is happy
  76. The tension at this dining table is wild
  77. Sunday is with Toyin even though he loves Uche more (side-eye) and Uche can’t step in because Toyin has a terminal illness so everyone is walking on eggshells around her
  78. Abeg, is this realistic at all?
  79. Truly a Sunday affair
  80. I need to raid Uche’s wardrobe
  81. I know, I’m stressed out too
  82. Toyin is pregnant! I knew it
  83. But there are issues with her pregnancy because of the cancer
  84. Sunday and Uche are f****** on the low
  85. If I see this yellow car one more time, I might lose it
  86. I love Uche but this ginger wig has to go at some point. How many years has it been? Ahnahn
  87. Hm. Toyin is in labour but it’s not looking good
  88. Wait. Toyin & the baby are dead?
  89. Wow, so she died?  
  90. Okay so she left Uche & Sunday a letter
  91. Hold on. Toyin knew about Sunday and Uche all along? And she was fine with being left in the dark?
  92. What type of dumb movie plot is this one?
  93. Okay the baby is alive
  94. Again, they couldn’t go another direction with this movie?
  95. So you’re telling me Toyin died so her best friend Uche, could end up with her baby daddy, Sunday, who was two timing them both?
  96. And Toyin still left money for Uche in Dollaz! Hm. I crave this type of friendship
  97. Justice for Toyin
  98. What ever happened to Sunday’s wife (Eku Edewor) and family?
  99. The movie production was great but they could have done so much better with the script

Post-watch thoughts: It’s not the most critical watch, but it’ll make you laugh a bit and roll your eyes once or twice. It’s an okay script on the beauty of female friendships, while making notations to topics like cervical cancer and IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) for women. If you’re looking for something to watch with your girls this March, go for it. Just remember, Sisters before Misters.

Age Rating: 18+ (There’s a couple of sexual scenes)

Watch time: 96 Minutes

Rating: 16/21
