We saw them on Makoti... Are You the One?, in which the four makotis were trying to get marriage blessings from their future in-laws.

They got their answers... but where to from here?

Nganele follows three of the four original couples as they navigate life post the series.

Their journey was one of trying to prove to their potential in-laws that they are enough, but now - after going through the experiment - the ladies finally believe that they are enough, regardless of whether they make it to the altar or not.

Murder for Hire

Channel: eReality (Openview 108)
TX Time: 22h45
Genre: True Crime, Documentary Series

Murder for Hire

This series gives an exclusive look into the dark world of contract killings, showcasing some of the most fascinating murder for hire cases ever caught on tape.

In an alarming trend, investigators are seeing a sharp increase in hired hits across the country, and those shockingly include: housewives, wealthy bankers, military officers and even grandmothers.

From scorned lovers to jealous relatives, the show explores in rare, never-before-seen footage, how a seemingly good relationship can go wrong and the emotions surrounding the reveal when an intended victim discovers a hit has been taken on their life.

Each standalone episode will feature a different case of undercover agents immersing the viewer into the real life sting and investigation as they attempt to catch the perpetrator and ultimately prevent a murder.

In the series premiere, "An Ex-Wife's Revenge": After a bitter divorce, an addiction therapist blackmails her patient into helping her find a hitman to kill her ex-husband.

What she doesn't know is the patient enlists the help of an undercover officer to try to prevent a cold-blooded murder.
 

Gunther's Millions

Channel: Netflix South Africa
TX Time: 10h00 (all episodes)
Genre: Documentary Series

Gunther's Millions

A dog with a trust fund isn't the strangest part of this story - Gunther's eccentric handler also lived a luxe life - with a cult-like entourage.

Multi-millionaire Gunther VI lives in the lap of luxury: He travels on private planes, eats gold-flaked steaks for dinner, and surrounds himself with a glamorous entourage of spokesmodels and entertainers.

He is also a German shepherd.

As the legend goes, Gunther's great-grandfather was originally owned by a mysterious countess whose son died tragically.

Having no heirs, the countess bequeathed her considerable fortune to her beloved dog, and placed him in the care of her son's close friend, an Italian pharmaceutical heir and aspiring impresario named Maurizio Mian.

Over the past 30 years, Mian has built an empire on behalf of his canine boss, including glamorous real estate purchases, controversial social experiments, and one of the biggest tax fraud schemes of all time.

It's a fairytale both beautiful and bizarre, and naturally, questions abound.

In this whirlwind of a four-part investigative documentary series, executive producers Aurelien Leturgie and Emilie Dumay crisscross the globe in search of answers, gaining access to never-before-seen archival material and sitting down for intimate and sometimes shocking conversations with Mian and the rest of Gunther's longtime associates in the hopes of understanding the complicated truth behind the world's wealthiest pet.

Khumbul'ekhaya 17

Presented by Andile Gaelesiwe, Khumbul'ekhaya tracks the journeys of South Africans who ask the show for help in their search to heal their relationships with lost or estranged family members.

In each episode, two stories spark tears and laughter as viewers reflect on their family relationships and are moved to implement positive change in their own homes.

Khumbul'ekhaya tackles socio-economic issues such as abuse, addiction, poverty and the breakdown of the family structure, which contributes to the continued estrangement of family members.

In the Season 17 premiere: Makhosonke's mother ran away from her home in the Free State when her husband threatened to kill her, leaving behind four children, her parents and her siblings.

After three decades of running away from home, her children encouraged her to face her fears and reunite with her family.

In the second story, Lindiwe is looking for her father, who she has never seen in her entire life.

Will the quest to find her father be successful?
