2,074,000 is a strong start for Mamello. I think it will improve as time goes by. So B & B still remains the highest rated show on SABC 3, disappointing. High Rollers should do better in a different slot.

I'd like to know why TVSA classifies Telenovelas under Soap Operas even though they are both distinct genres? We understand that Uzalo is a Telenovela, as well as Gold Diggers, High Rollers, The Road and Ashes to Ashes.
