Special Notes

These firsts happened this month:

1.  Sibongile & The Dlaminis hit the 1.5-million viewership milestone on Mzansi Wethu for the first time since its debut in August 2023.

Viewership has officially increased by just over 1-million viewers since then. 

2. Wheel of Fortune South Africa made S3's Top 20 list for the first time since its premiere in April this year, attracting 322,092 viewers for its most watched episode on 9 September 2024. 

3. Roomies flew the flag for comedy on Mzansi Magic, reaching DStv's Top 30 for the first time with 440,710 viewers on Friday 27 September.

It made Mzansi Magic's Top 10, coming in at No 6 (if you don't count the Gqeberha repeat).

As we've expressed before, there isn't enough comedy on TV - bring on more people!

4. We were going to say that Mzansi Magic's Queen Modjadji toppled off DStv's Top 30 list for the first time this month but no, that happened last month already. It started in eleventh position in July 2024, with 584,264 viewers.

A bit of a drought going on it seems.
