The series will follow a group of singles on blind dates whose search for love will be accompanied by commentaries from some of South Africa’s most hilarious celebrities.
JOHANNESBURG - An unscripted comedy dating series titled "10x60" is set to premiere later this year.
A group of singles going on blind dates will be followed in Brainstorm Entertainment's Dating #NoFilter, as their quest for love is joined by commentary from some of the funniest personalities in South Africa.
E! Africa (DStv channel number 124) will be the only place where the show premieres.
Actress and radio personality Hope Mhbele, comedian and TV personality, Jason Goliath (E!'s Celebrity Game Night, Ses' Top La), and media personality and content creator Lebogang Tlokana, also referred to as "The Funny Chef," are among the 15 comedy cast members.
As the dates go, Jason and the other comics will be there to provide uncensored analysis on every awkward encounter and heartfelt look. Aside from inevitable dating blunders, the expectation is that the couples will develop sincere bonds.
