March already! It'll soon be Christmas at this rate.
Welcome to episode 35 of season 3 of African Couch Potato. This week we say Goodbye, Hello and Congratulations.
We say Goodbye to Eric Dane. Best known for his roles on Grey's Anatomy and Euphoria, the American actor died less than a year after revealing he had amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, a form of motor neuron disease. He was 53.
Dane starred as family patriarch Cal Jacobs in the hit teen drama Euphoria. Before that, he was perhaps best known as Dr Mark Sloan, or "Dr McSteamy", in Grey's Anatomy.
We say Hello to several series which are coming to Mzansi Magic, notably Youngins and Law, Love and Betrayal plus an extension to the popular Inimba.
We say Congratulations to the freshly-announced SAFTA nominees, many of whom have been in the hotseat as guests of ACP.
