The second season of sitcom City Ses'la premiered on SABC1 on Tuesday 29 August at 20h30 and attracted more than 2.6-million viewers, making it the top comedy in South Africa in Week 36 (28 August - 3 September).

It was also the fourth most-watched show on SABC1 in that week, as well as the fourth most-watched show across all channels.

The only shows that attracted more viewers in Week 36 were the usual suspects: Generations (3.5-million), Zone 14 (2.9-million) and Tsha Tsha (2.7-million).

Week 35's top comedy - Everybody Hates Chris - dropped to third in Week 36, behind City Ses'la and another SABC1 comedy, That's So Raven.

City Ses'la is derived from the Xhosa phrase "Sithi ses'la", meaning "We have arrived!"

The half-hour sitcom is set in South Africa's latest lifestyle trend - "loft living" - and follows the lives of six 20-somethings from completely different backgrounds, living and loving together
in Jozi.
