Dead Set on Life 2

Boisterous chef Matty Matheson isn't picky about what he eats - he'll eat a $6 sub at a gas station, then later in the day eat a meal made from some of the most expensive, sought-after ingredients available.

Now, the Toronto-based chef is combining his love of food and adventure as he heads across his native Canada - and beyond - to experience some of the foods made by his fellow countrymen and international chefs, whether they're closer to cheap gas-station eats or delicacies at five-star establishments.

Matheson, along with new and old friends, eats a variety of foods that he encounters on his journey.

Int he Season 2 premiere, "Rang's Journey": Matty and Rang head to south Vietnam to visit the town where Rang grew up.

Matty meets Rang's family and learns the harrowing story of how he came to Canada.
 

Date My Family 11

Channel: Mzansi Wethu (DStv 163)
TX Time: 20h30
Genre: Dating Game Show, Reality

Date My Family 11

NOTE: this season was promoted as starting in February, but never aired.


Dating game show in which singles who are looking for love are sent on dates with the families of three potential partners, and must decide who to date based solely on the impression their family gives.

Forget about the "two people meet each other" typical love story. It's now a full-on family affair.

In each episode, audiences are introduced to a bachelor/bachelorette who's looking for love.

That singleton is then sent on three dates – to meet the families of three potential partners.

The twist in the tale?

The bachelor/bachelorette must choose just one potential partner who they think they'll hit it off with – based solely on what the families say and do.

But will they make the right choice?

The three potential partners are kept out of sight, watching the action unfold onscreen, as the bachelor/bachelorette engages with their respective family.

They secretly hope that their families paint them in the best possible light and make a good first impression.

With no communication at all between the bachelor/bachelorette and the potential partners, the scene is set for an unforgettable final date.

Expect laughs and drama as Cupid gets a helping hand from brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, moms, dads, nieces, nephews, cousins and of course, grandparents.

At the end the day, the question remains: will it love at first hello - or a fast goodbye?

In the Season 11 premiere: We meet 28-year-old Thabang Mothajana from Bloemfontein.

Thabang enjoys going out and playing soccer and his ideal partner needs to be compatible with him.
