During that time, MultiChoice unveiled the new Showmax streamer which would serve as a joint venture with NBCUniversal. This partnership would lead to an extended library of content from NBCUniversal alongside further upgrades to Showmax's frequencies.
Amidst that time, 1Magic had converted to a Showmax repeats channel featuring shows like Outlaws and Adulting. With speculation going around that MultiChoice only extended this offering as a means to promote the newly revamped Showmax.
With 1Magic set to go dark after 6 years with Me after 3 years by the end of March. The pay-tv company had issued a statement about the latter although not acknowledging Me.
While some of our popular telenovelas and shows have come to an end, newer fresher content as well as existing shows will be available on the remaining M-Net channels and platforms such as DStv Stream, Catch Up and Showmax.
It is currently unknown how MultiChoice plans to supplement this offering to consumers without M-Net and Showmax. But for more medical and crime shows viewers are encouraged to watch Universal TV and Comedy Central with further local content on Mzansi Magic.
New channels
Although 1Magic and Me are set to be going dark on the DStv platform by the end of March. MultiChoice is currently working on a TV channel curated on Showmax which will feature a mix of South African produced and international shows.
But in a recent enquiry, it seems like this reported channel which would replace both 1Magic and Me ""might" not be available once these channels goes dark as sources tell Insidus to keep tabs on their social platforms for further updates on a new additions.
