On Friday, MultiChoice silently introduced a new Portuguese entertainment channel which is said to replace Record TV or TV Globo in various African markets on DStv and this comes at a time tvN is scheduled to close on the platform.
MyChannel Africa is a general entertainment space, which will broadcast diverse content, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The channel is of Brazilian origin, it's fully spoken in Portuguese, it brings proposals, programs and faces known to the local public.
The channel will offer soap operas, reality shows, series, movies and auditorium shows such as Genesis, Proof Of Love, Top, Power Couple and A Hora Do Faro.
Basically, TV Globo and Record TV recieved a new shed of paint with all shows starting from the very beginning.
Record TV recently shuttered the Ugandan feed while the feed in Angola was suspended till further notice so this channel is basically there to make up for the loss.
This new version is available to DStv Premium, Compact+ and Compact customers on channel 515.
In other developments, MultiChoice will be introducing two Maisha Magic channels (one is yet to be confirmed) and a Mozambique entertainment channel likely to make up for the loss of SIC International but this channel is local and it wouldn't shock me if it were to be made available in Southern Africa.
