Last night I went to the launch of MAN, a new quasi-docu-tainment local series starting on SABC3 on Friday, 22 January at 21:30. There's 13 episodes.
MAN as an unscripted reality show follows the lives of 4 Captonian dudes, Maurice, Trevor, Kaizer and Henri - all single, 30something South African men. The show with an amazing production quality (I've watched the first lot of episodes) lifts the lid (warning: adult language and situations, frank discussions about everything) on what it's to be a South African male in terms in terms of the dating scene, social mingling and of course with the backdrop of Cape Town as the ''fifth character''.
''The insight it provides is controversial and dynamic, but most importantly, honest,'' the producers of MAN tells me. ''The opinions expressed are uncensored, and the characters given carte blanche with their views and beliefs.''
