Special notes

Record ratings for Family Feud South Africa

Family Feud SA hit its highest ratings ever on Sunday 27 June with 2,724,431 viewers. This is a whopping 700,000 more than in May when Season 2 started with 2,068,782 viewers.

And 110,000 more than its previous high which happened in Season 1 in April 2020.

What happened on 27 June? Imbewu stars took on Durban Gen. 

The gun in Meikie's handbag

Skeem Saam went from strength to strength again this month with an increase of 340,000 viewers between May and June.

This takes the show's viewership increase to almost R1.1-million over the past two months. 

The episode that draw the highest audience in June: the night Meikie freaked out when Kwaito told her about John Maputla being his father. The night she kicked Kwaito out. The night that ended with the gun in her handbag.

No more alcohol

The presidential speech that headlines SABC2: the return to Level 4.

Where would recordings or catch-up ratings fall under?

Hi Plastic - viewership from Catch Up and Viu aren't included in these Primetime ratings unfortunately.

They only reflect the viewership of each show when they aired on TV, at their broadcast time.

The Broadcast Research Council doesn't release the numbers for Catch Up or Viu but they're going to have to soon otherwise the ratings they release won't be relevant anymore.

People are rapidly changing the way the watch TV so ratings that don't include streaming or Catch Up are literally on the brink of being dated.
