In a really big deal, the show Skeem Saam, made by Peu Communications, grabbed the attention of over 3.2 million people on March 4, 2024. This was the first time ever that so many people watched the show on TV, and it happened at its new time of 7:30 PM.
The decision to change the show’s time was announced by SABC1 in January 2024, and people were really excited to see what would happen. The first episode in the new time slot was full of exciting stories, like Leeto finding out that Bullet lied to him, Jacobeth accusing Magongwa of being a witch, and some hints at new romances in Turfloop.
Ofentse Thinane, who’s in charge of SABC1, said, “We wanted to give people what they wanted. We’re really happy about how many people watched the show on the first night in the new time slot, and we hope for even more good things to come with Skeem Saam.”
This big success shows that Skeem Saam is really good at keeping people interested with its stories. And there’s even more to look forward to, with a new character coming in April and lots of drama still to unfold between Lehasa and Khwezi, and Pretty getting closer to reaching her goals.
With so many people tuning in and exciting things ahead, Skeem Saam is proving it’s one of the most loved shows on South African TV. Fans can’t wait to see what happens next and the show promises to keep delivering more thrilling moments and stories.
