The show is in for major revamp and maybe an engine overhaul as well. The main change will see the current presenters making way for fresh talent to take the show forward. The irrepressible Twasa Seoke and T’do will soon bid the show and Mzansi’s viewers a final goodbye as the show’s presenters to pursue other things. Twasa has been with the show for 8 years.

The show’s producers have already started with the process of unearthing suitable talent to drive the popular Friday evening youth show. The new revamped show which promises to be bigger and more exciting will be launched on television on Friday, 20 May at 18:30.

“The Reloaded Campaign is meant to reward their unwavering loyalty to the brand and to provide them with an improved viewing experience they can only expect from SABC1 Mzansi Fo Sho,” she adds.

The show is currently celebrating an 18-year experience on national television under the theme – 18 Years of Jammin’ – and 8 episodes have already been recorded with a selection of Mzansi’s celebs roped in as contestants and presenters. Amongst others the following personalities have already featured on the show: S’phiwe Mtshali (ex-presenter on the show), Zizo Beda, The Twinz and Phila Mazibuko, Zone 14 and City Sesla cast.
