Steve Harvey and his popular game show franchise, Family Feud, grace screens in Botswana on Btv (DStv Channel 289)! The glitzy show which first launched in 1976, pits two families against each other in a guessing game of hilarious proportions in front of a live studio audience. For the first time in history, DStv Botswana viewers will be able to see local families, friends and a few celebrities as they partake in this international television sensation.
“The launch of Family Feud Botswana on Btv is a huge milestone for local content and a welcome development for us as a platform that proudly carries Btv in Botswana,” says Stephanie Pillay, MultiChoice Botswana Managing Director. “Having Btv on DStv in Botswana enables us to bring Batswana local content that is relevant, informative and now even more entertaining. DStv Botswana subscribers will have access to this phenomenal game show for as low as P130 as Btv News and Btv 1 are both available
on our DStv Access package.”
Family Feud Botswana is one of the first productions to come out of the Botswana Ignite project which was launched with the aim to help grow the local film and television industry. Executive Producer Kee-Leen Irvine, well-known for hit series such as Come Dine With Me SA, The Bachelor and Strictly Come Dancing, amongst others, led the Family Feud Botswana production and had this to say, “It’s a dream come true to finally see the launch of Family Feud Botswana on air this Sunday. Meeting amazing Batswana who are such warm, friendly people and always up for some fun, whilst taking Steve Harvey on a cultural journey was truly a fantastic [experience].”
DStv Botswana viewers can look forward to seeing every day Batswana families battle it out on weekly episodes of Family Feud Botswana alongside familiar local faces such as actress, director and all-around legendary export, Connie Ferguson, the cast of Botshelo Jo, Miss World Africa, and now Honourable Minister, Lesego Chombo, FME DJs, and more! “We’re excited that Family Feud Botswana is a celebration of the heart of the culture of Batswana by showcasing authentic families, and we are equally excited
that viewers will be treated to seeing some of their favorite public personalities and their families on-screen as well,” added Pillay.
