    Ghana’s Most Popular Showmax Programming In 2022 Check it Out

     

    Two Showmax Original series, Shirley Frimpong-drama Manso’s series ENO and the documentary reality series My Perfect Funeral, marked the beginning of Showmax’s investment in Ghana in 2022. This was done on purpose by the African streaming service to support the Ghanaian film and television industry and increase the audience for African content created by Africans.

    This investment is paying off since there is a growing demand for regional programming throughout Africa, not just in Ghana. In 2022, seven of the ten most viewed titles in Ghana on the platform, with two titles from Nigeria and one from abroad, were local, according to the most recent viewership data from Showmax.
    Following are the top 10 shows on Showmax in Ghana in 2022, listed alphabetically:
