Gone are the days when content creators depended on mainstream TV channels to air their content.
These days you can reach out to an audience at the click of a button in the comfort of your home. What a time to be alive.
Social media has become the go to outlet for many film and TV producers, with many shows on these platforms attracting millions of viewers.
Pink & Purple, a television talk show that was created two years ago to promote women’s participation in the media space, aired on national broadcaster ZBCTV during its first season.
This time around the producers have decided to take another route, with the second season premiering on Tuesday on the ONVI TV YouTube Channel.
The first episode had the new host Thembie Phiedarh interviewing award winning musician Novuyo Seagirl.
Future episodes will feature the likes of South African based afro-soul sensation Berita, popular radio personality Samantha Musa (MisRed) and Sarah Nyathi to name a few.
The first season which was hosted by Princess Mpofu and has repeatedly been aired on ZBCTV since 2018 was graced by Lady Tshawe, former Miss Tourism Zimbabwe Samantha Tshuma and Sizwakele “Zwa” Ndlovu among others.
In a statement, Onvi TV Productions said the second season will feature a number of amazing female guests from different industries and social backgrounds across Zimbabwe and internationally.
“The second season which premiered on the September 1 will cover diverse topics including business, health, entertainment, celebrity profiles, lifestyle, and other social topics during its 30 episode run,” read the statement.
Releasing the show online is part of the production house’s efforts to increase their reach.
“The decision to release this season of the show online came as part of the team’s plan to extend the viewership of the show beyond borders and to those without access to local television.”
To watch the talk show, all you need to do is tune in and subscribe to the OnviTV YouTube channel.
