After a single season, BET Africa’s (*124) original telenovela Isono was cancelled in 2021 for undisclosed reasons. However, that wasn’t entirely the end of the local production as it’s been commissioned to air weekdays on free-to-air network channel e.tv (*194) from Monday 11 April at 20:30.
With a mixture of unpredictable storylines, suspense and episodes that end on cliff-hangers, viewers will be on the edge of their seats. If you missed the first run of Isono or simply need a refresher about the telenovela before tuning in, read on to find out more about the dark and twisted world…
MEET MOTHER MARY
Set in Vosloorus Township in the east of Johannesburg, Isono follows the dysfunctional Ndlovu family. At the front and centre of this clan is the matriarch Mary (Nthati Moshesh). On the surface, Mary is a churchgoing philanthropist. She’s well-put-together, well-spoken and it’s rare to find her out of her expensive outfits that go with her designer heels and a matching tilted church hat.
