Entertainment Inside Us (Insidus)

2 years after, MultiChoice and ViacomCBS decided to remove the outdated VH1 Classic in favour of a third MTV channel revolving on modern international music, MTV Music 24. The brand is once again undergoing a name change this time MTV Hits. MTV Hits is said to be the one stop pop shop for only the biggest, hottest, newest, vids out there featuring artists such as Beyoncé, Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, Ed Sheeran and more. Shows set to air on the channel include Fresh Vidz, Hot Hits, Hot Vidz and Big Fat Hits. This change in South Africa comes alongside Central Europe which is set to replace the channel with NickMusic which also has a show on Nicktoons. MTV Hits is currently available in over 40 markets. It recently launched in Germany and Netherlands which forms part of Europe.

Openview, the free-to-air satellite platform in the eMedia Holdings stable and a sister company to e.tv, has increased the number of activations of its set-top boxes by more than 18% in the past year, to almost 2.4 million units. That’s an improvement from the just less than two million activations recorded a year ago. The figures were disclosed in JSE-listed eMedia’s results for the year ended 31 March 2021, which were published on Thursday. The media group is now promising to launch new channels in the current financial year to improve the breadth of the Openview content offering. it also said it will launch a streaming video offering called eVOD in July, but didn’t provide any further details about the product or what programming it will offer. In the last financial period, they promised to launch a new streaming service known as OpenView+ last year in October that never materialized only for them to go mute. My presumed guess would be that the platform would be a lighter vers

The series revolves around a talking dog named Martha, who is owned by 10-year-old Helen Lorraine (known in the books as Helen Finney). Whenever Helen feeds Martha alphabet soup , the pasta letters somehow travel to her brain instead of her stomach, giving her the ability to speak human words. The show takes place in the fictional town of Wagstaff City, likely referring to Flagstaff, Arizona or even a fictionalized version of Flagstaff, Maine. Based on the 1992 children's book with the same name. The show focuses on mainly synonyms and vocabulary, with each episode featuring an underlying theme illustrated with (usually informal) keywords, but can occasionally focus on introducing preschoolers to different science and other learning concepts, such as the Spanish language through passing mentions, history, and astronomy. The fifth season consists of eight episodes which debuted back in 2013 in the United States and is one of the shortest seasons for the show. The fifth season

With the international rollout of Disney+ in full swing, Disney has been making big changes to its traditional television networks, as it moves its content over to Disney+. When Disney purchased 20th Century Fox, they obtained a large number of TV networks around the world including Fox, Star, National Geographic and more, in addition to their own Disney Channels. Last year multiple Disney Channels were closed down around the world, including in Australia and in the United Kingdom. With Disney also set to close down the Fox channel in the UK next month and another 18 channels in South East Asia later this year . During a recent interview with Walt Disney CEO Bob Chapek at the J.P. Morgan Global Technology, Media And Communications Conference. He was asked if more international cable networks are going to be closing, and he replied: Well, we closed 30 channels in FY2020 or in 2020. We plan to close 100 in 2021. So yes, we will continue and continue at a robust rate. And then the con

tvN launched in March on DStv channel 134 after failing to launch November of last year as promised in DStv's upfront and is expected to continue operating until June 20th at least that's what MultiChoice stated earlier. tvN Africa posted a photo online asking fans which shows they like to see "this year".  Now read the inverted part didn't they say it would close later in June. It's possible MultiChoice and the owners of the brand CJ ENM reached a new agreement giving the channel either a permanent or extended vacation. Why else would the channel ask such questions and put these 8 shows in particular if there's no reason to it really. If tvN does happen to be a permanent addition it will be the first out of the four pop-up channels advertised in DStv's upfront. After all Timeless Dizi Channel was the first to be axed despite the massive followers and ZooMoo which was scheduled to close in March got extended until the end of June leaving TLNo

In 2019, Disney took ownership of 21st Century Studios. Since then they've been removing trying to rid themselves of the FOX name by turning 20th Century FOX Television into 20th Television and even going as far as replacing the international FOX Sports channels with ESPN. FOX might be rebranding sooner than anticipated I mean there was no actual timeframe on when Star would replace more FOX channels since the last the trail went silent in Latin America back in February but the UK might have answered that. The channel is scheduled to shutdown by the end of June in the UK and Africa could follow around that time if not the exact date the only thing difference here we'll follow Latin America and have a linear version of Star. FOX turns 11 later in July or maybe it will be replaced before then as the channel started uploading new content but in this case it's coming from Disney+ Star. The second Star original Marvel's Helstorm is rolling out in the same month wit

MultiChoice is currently the biggest monopoly in the entertainment industry. Before only the rich could grace in its local luxuries now even the less fortunate where eMedia Investments resides can bask in its glory. eMedia Investments like or not has slowly gone down that forgotten and risky path. SABC and eMedia Investments traded places years back on the dominant player. e.tv had a large catalogue of local content like Mahadi: Lobola, I Love South Africa, Forgive And Forget and Backstage and the closest anyone had to foreign content was through old sitcoms, reality, movies and kids shows then it moved to become a free version of M-Net with the likes of Chicago PD, NCIS and How To Get Away With Murder and it's Mega Movies. In 2018, eMedia Investments rolled out a 2 hour Afrikaans block called Kuiertyd onto eExtra offering reality, lifestyle, dramas, movies and dubbed telenovelas which became a massive success particularly for the telenovelas. A year later, e.tv got into the

eKasi is making a comeback 3 years after eMedia Investments replaced it with eExtra in the hopes to bolster their content offering. It also spawned an anthology series known as eKasi: Our Stories. The brand will be launching as a weekend programming block for 1 hour through eReality and according to sources Rewind. The block will serve up shows such as Will You Be My Ex , Deadbeats , Beef and Pay Back The Money . They will likely serve up archived content from eMedia Investments as well as content seen on M-Net. eKasi is the second block introduced to eMedia's stable following the launch of the Afrikaans block, Kuiertyd in 2018 that serves up reality, lifestyle and telenovelas.

Official logo (This is not the official logo for Moja 9.9.) Moja Love might be getting a companion soon. For now it's too early to confirm anything but apparently MultiChoice stacked up some content from this brand on Moja 9.9. The name originated from one of the shows listed on this "new channel" which is Zodwa that is starting from scratch on this supposed channel. Other shows listed on this channel include Meet The Khambules and Isencane Lengane both of which aired on Moja Love. That's pretty much the only thing for the channel maybe they'll add more close to its launch. Moja Love has been around for 3 years and already MultiChoice feels it's okay to launch a rewind channel for the brand but channels such as BET2 and SABC Encore had to be axed. Since everything on this channel is just a repeat and not that OLD I wouldn't be stunned if it joined KykNet Lekker and is made available exclusively to Access (and Easyview) customers on channel 158/9.
