The only catch is that Lebo has to look after his nerdy teenage niece, Sisi, while dodging his uncle’s gold digging ex-wife Pearl, and at the same time trying to charm Sisi’s after school tutor, Thami ... All this while keeping the hunky kid from next door, Mo, away from his niece.

There are a few cast replacements for the second season.

Gauteng Maboneng comes back for a second season with a couple of new faces,” said SABC2 publicist, Lebo Malete. “The second season also sees Dr Malinga making his acting debut playing the role of Lebo. Sitcoms have always been a hit with our viewers. The show zooms into a dysfunctional family. Our tagline is ‘A happily dysfunctional family working things out’. So we are all about celebrating family - even if it may be a bit broken, don’t throw it away - it’s about valuing family relationships. We believe that the second season will be more exciting and thrilling than the first season was. A definite must-watch on a Monday evening.”

Gauteng Maboneng airs from Monday, 20 October at 20:00 on SABC2.
