Discovery Science (also known as The Science Channel) is a factual and educational channel that was once packaged by StarTimes and On Digital Media's Starsat and SABC+. It featured shows currently viewed on Discovery Family including as How Its Made, Mythbusters, Extreme Engineering and How The Universe works.
Discovery Turbo Xtra (also known as MotorTrend) was a cars and motorsport channel that featured shows such as Chasing Classic Cars, FourWheeler, Iron Resurrection and Texas Metal. Although the channel wasn't viewable in Africa, select shows were distributed on Discovery Channel.
Warner Bros. Discovery offers a variety of brands including Discovery Channel, HGTV, TLC, Food Network and Animal Planet. These brands were said to substitute Discovery Science and Discovery Turbo Xtra once it shuts down by the end of 2023.
During the year, Robert Blair left Warner. Bros. Discovery as head of international TV distribution with speculation growing on a possible streamline to their portfolio. As the company is looking to sell less content to brands like M-Net and Showmax and also reduce content spend on brands like Cartoon Network and Cartoonito.
That's a pity - it was my favorite channel by far. Any hope to bring it back? Please?
