Five flash facts on SABC1's new telenovela Amalanga Awafani

This surprising but good news just in... SABC1's debuting a new telenovela this April 2025.

It's been too long since this has happened and it lifts our spirits to know that there's something coming that isn't a repeat. 

Here's a quick flash of the first tidbits:


It's titled Amalanga Awafani and produced by Stained Glass TV (Uzalo, Durban Gen). Loosely translated, the title means: days are not the same.


It's going to air Mondays to Fridays in Skeem Saam's former timeslot of 18h30.

It asks this question: “If you suddenly came into some extra millions, what would you buy? A new car, luxury fashion, high-end appliances or the best experiences money can afford?”

 What is it about? It isn’t just about newfound riches - it’s about choices and desires.

 Who is it for? According to the channel, it's going to be a socially relevant show that resonates with a rural, peri-urban and urban audiences.


We'll keep you posted when more details are available.

Aaaand the TV wars begin! With Isiphetho ending this April making way for another e.tv telenovela, and Sibongile and the Dlaminis fighting for the 18:30 throne, one can only wonder who will reign supreme. This is going to get messy. On a related note, finally SABC has delivered one of the long-form dramas they've promised, and by extension, one of the shows they've promised to introduce in their content showcase. So, kudos to the SABC. They delivered…eventually, like after a year or two.

Gosh Stained Glass produces horrible shows! Im glad sabc has something new for a change. They should have given this project to a fresh Production company. Im hoping they will prove me wrong ??‍??
