StarTimes Media is set to grow the kiddies lineup in the the month of August or September. The platform is set to add DreamWorks Channel which ran exclusively on Kwesé TV in Africa before it shuttered down.
DreamWorks Channel, launched back in 2015 internationally the channel carries original programming which was funded by other platforms such as Netflix, Amazon and Nickelodeon.
According to the info provided the channel will air All Hail King Julien, The Adventures Of Puss In Boots, Dawn Of The Croods, DreamWorks Dragons and all these series have already aired on Netflix, Showmax, Amazon, e.tv and eToonz.
DreamWorks Channel is owned by NBCUniversal so it's not surprising that the content on this channel are repeats from other platforms even though it's their own programming.
NBCUniversal owns Telemundo, Universal, AfricaNews, Studio Universal, CNBC and now has DreamWorks Channel. What's funny is Studio Universal is what you call a eMovies repeats channel.
DreamWorks Channel kind of seems like a disappointment if you ask me unless they plot to get the running exclusively on that channel before anywhere else in Africa. Right now this channel has a large lineup of shows which have been viewable in Africa for a long time now and I don't see them having any exclusive content since Netflix and Peacock (USA) are funding more series for the brand in the end it will give the brand longevity.
DreamWorks launches on StarSat channel 301 through the Max and Super Package in South Africa and also be available on for the rest of Africa on StarTimes Classic
