For young Sheldon Cooper, it isn't easy growing up in East Texas.

The Bachelorette South Africa

Channel: Me (DStv 115)
TX Time: 21h00
Genre: Dating Game Show, Reality Competition

The Bachelorette South Africa

A group of men court bachelorette Qiniso Van Damme and are eliminated each week by her until only one remains.

One woman gets the opportunity to find the man of her dreams - and hopefully her groom-to-be - in this primetime reality competition series.

The Bachelorette embarks on a romantic journey meeting 24 men. After getting to know each one, she continues to narrow the field until ultimately one man is left, to whom she proposes marriage in the season finale.

The show also takes an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at the lives of each participant involved in this unique courtship.

The bachelorette travels to exciting romantic locations with the men, introduces them to her closest friends and family and visits their hometowns to meet their parents.

At the end of the journey, she will have had an unforgettable experience and, quite possibly, found true love.

But the big mystery is: If she pops the question, will he accept?

Each new Bachelor episode contains a rose ceremony during which one or more contestants is eliminated. Eliminations are based upon date performance (i.e., how the men relate to the bachelorette on the dates.)

The bachelorette must follow a process of elimination where her pool of bachelors is narrowed down week by week by presenting a rose to each of the men she wishes to keep.

At any point during the process, if a man decides he is no longer interested in the bachelorette, although she may still be interested in him, he may leave.

In the end, the bachelorette selects one man and gives him the final rose. She may or may not propose to him at this final rose ceremony.

Hosted by Jason Greer, The Bachelor South Africa is produced by Rapid Blue.

Shrill is quite good, kinda reminds me of Girls but with more diversity. The episode where there was a Nigerian wedding was brilliant.

@TVSA do you cover debuts from channel 103? There was no update when Insecure season 5 debuted I saw it by chance at episode 2.  Also there was no update when Queen Sugar season 6 debuted, I also saw it by chance last night at episode 5

Timone, we do indeed cover 103, but we are limited in that their schedules change without warning and they simply don't inform or update us when this happens. We've complained for years, but it falls on deaf ears.

We try our very, very best to cover all shows, but when we can't I assure you - it is beyond our control.

I suspected that could be the reason as you have been providing exceptional service over the years.  We appreciate you fam!
