MultiChoice and M-Net will be rolling out two new 18 hour entertainment channels Magic Showcase and CineMagic to their Easyview customers later in November. Prior to its launch, it was announced Novela Magic will no longer be accessible in South Africa.
Novela Magic launched in November 2020 as Africa's first Pan-African telenovela channel featuring content from Africa Magic, Mzansi Magic and Zambezi Magic namely Zuba, Isibaya, The Johnsons and Brotherhood Brethren.
The channel was meant to be used as a gateway to content that was restricted from certain regions but as seen in the past years the channel offers a large chunk of Mzansi Magic which is what led to its demise for consumers in South Africa and freedom from execution in other countries.
Magic Showcase is set to rectify that error but to less DStv customers as MultiChoice is trying their best to limit the amount of repeats accessible on a package as seen with kykNET Lekker, Maisha Magic POA and Moja 9.9.
Consumers who wish to see further seasons of Zuba and Battleground can tune into Africa Magic Family and Urban while the large chunk of SA content on the channel can be accessed through Mzansi Magic, kykNET, Mzansi Wethu, kykNET & Kie and kykNET Lekker.
Comedy Central and MTV were added respectively to Compact and Family bouquets to make up for the cancellation of Novela Magic. Access customers welcomed a further two channels to their package last month, BET and Moonbug Kids.
