Special Notes

The ratings for Gold Diggers on e.tv on 15 November were boosted by the fact that soccer aired on SABC1 instead of Generations. Generations aired in place of High Rollers on SABC3 on the night.

These viewership figures are provided by the Broadcast Research Council. For further explanation, please see: The TAMS ratings explained.

Muvhango has 6 mill viewers wow .isidingo is over one mill on sabc 3 .higher than the Bold .they must be doing something right . Look at High Rollers down there .clearly this show is not doing well for SABC 3.eNews Direct is doing very well . Whats going on there with isibaya and OPW .which one is suppose to be number 1. Generation will be moving to sabc 3 in January for the soccer .that will affect their ratings a lot .sabc 1 shows always doing well.

Hi max - this is the order that the Broadcast Research Council has listed them but clearly they should be other way round.

I am glad that Gold diggers is doing so well in its timeslot. Taking into account the show it is up against.

I guess Isidingo's transformation both behind the camera and infront is bearing fruit. Generations will suffer a significant drop by January when it moves to SABC3 for lengthy period. Lol, talk about self-sabotage. A perfect chance for etv to capitalise.
