“As producers of the show, we have been contracted to create the content and provide it to the SABC. We do our part to make a quality production but it is up to the SABC to decide on the time and day that is best to air it,” she said.
Pearl also told the publication that although she is aware of the show’s drop in viewership, she is not in the least bit worried.
“I am aware but we are not concerned. The SABC is doing what it can with the show and we trust that they know what they are doing with the show,” she said.
