Jaw-dropping reality shows to stream this October

Staff Writer

There are loads of juicy moments in store during October, with fan-favourite and International Emmy-nominated reality series available to binge on Showmax.

Ubuthe Uzobuya delves into the lives of couples torn apart when one partner abruptly disappeared without explanation. Hosted by actor Tshepo Maseko, the Showmax Original explores the heart-wrenching stories of those who were once deeply in love, only to be left in uncertainty.

Produced by Barkers Media (Shebeen Queens, The Bala Family and How To Manifest A Man), the focus of the show is on tracking down the missing partner to uncover their reasons for leaving, culminating in an emotional reunion with the partner who reached out to the show.

In the final segment, the person who vanished must confront their past and decide whether to return to their former life or embrace the new one they’ve built—sometimes with a new family.

The Real Housewives of Miami returns for another season, and this time, the drama is more intense than ever.

Guerdy’s shocking breast cancer diagnosis and relationship revelations bring some friendships closer, while straining others.

As The Daily Beast states, “The Real Housewives of Miami is officially Bravo’s best franchise… This is the funniest, most vulnerable, and irresistible ensemble on Bravo.”

Up for Most Entertaining Reality TV Show at The Behind The Scenes Awards on 9 November 2024, Mnakwethu returns for its fourth season with host Musa Mseleku, a proud polygamist, still acting as counsel and mediator as men ask their wives to allow them to marry a second wife.

 With success not always guaranteed, Mseleku assists the men in pleading their cases to their wives, helping them come to terms with the request and, sometimes, facilitating the meeting between the first and potential second wives.
