JOHANNESBURG - The date of the local debut of Dating #NoFilter, the popular comedy dating series, has been revealed. Brainstorm Entertainment's ten-episode unscripted series will debut exclusively on E! Africa (DStv channel 124 and DStv Access) on October 13 at 19:00.
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.
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.
The SAFTA-winning Celebrity Game Night found a home on E! Africa for all four of its seasons. Goliath expressed his excitement at spearheading the network's newest and most intriguing local program, Dating #NoFilter.
