Vuzu (DStv 123) is starting a new web only show, Private on Wednesday, October 13 at 09:00 on http://www.vuzu.tv/ that comes from the executive producers of the teen TV show Gossip Girl.
Private, based on the series of books by Kate Brian, follows Reed Brennan, the ultimate outsider, who arrives at the elite Eason Academy where many mysteries await. Private stars Kelsey Sanders, Samantha Cope, Tristin Mays and Brant Dougherty. There's 20 episodes of about five minutes each, and one episode a week will be made available on the Vuzu website.
''We are thrilled to have secured Private to add to Vuzu's already strong offering of online youth programming,'' says Yolisa Phahle, channel director for special interests at M-Net. ''Gossip Girl has proved one of the most-watched shows on Vuzu and we expect that fans of that show will embrace Private with the same enthusiasm.''
