During the week, viewers were disturbed to hear the announcement that MultiChoice will be severing ties with most of eMedia Investments set of channels leaving them with e.tv and eNCA as the others remain available on Openview.
In these strings of announcements, MultiChoice announced several new channels KIX which will be also made available to Access customers, DreamWorks Channel and a second movie channel to make up for the scrapped channels.
Interesting enough, MultiChoice hasn't found a suitor for eExtra either they still haven't looked or just don't care and the other could be that they have already found its suitor and its staring at viewer's faces.

Yes, I'm referring to Timeless Dizi Channel and tvN which were considered the rejects to DStv while TLNovelas got a saved of execution.
Timeless Dizi Channel is more or less the equivalent of eExtra as seen in some international territories the popular Turkish channel has been airing several eExtra titles including Kurt En Shura, Voëlvry, Bittersoet, Die Vreemdeling and Stiletto Vendetta.
The channel can be found on StarSat and StarTimes across Africa which has been considered a sinking ship as several premium international channels including Real Time, Discovery Family, Investigation Discovery and Discovery Science from Discovery Inc. have since then gone dark on the platform with no replacements on the cards.
How long do you suppose it will be till the troublesome pay-tv company announces the discontinuation of Timeless Dizi Channel?

tvN has moved to bigger and better things or at least on MultiChoice's books as the content is bundled by their streaming service, Showmax and from what some have analysed not all content that is bundled under the streaming service makes it to DStv so this one is a 50/50 scenario.
