Special notes
World Cup mayhem
Uzalo, Skeem Saam and Generations appear in the SABC2 and SABC3 lists because of their move to these channels during the World Cup on SABC1.
As you'll see, the numbers are riddled with discrepancies this month. The Broadcast Research Council (who compile these lists) has erroneously included Generations twice in SABC1's Top 20 so we've left out the second instance in the Top 5s.
They've also included a bizarre non-existent show called "S3 2000-2159" as the second most popular show on SABC3 so we've left this of the Top 5 too.
None of the World Cup games have been included in SABC1's Top 20. There's no clarity from the BRC whether this is because none of them made the Top 20 list (which seems highly unlikely) or if they weren't included in the parameters when the list was compiled, unlike the DStv list.
