At the time of publishing, not much was known about how Star Life will fill up the timeslot for Evil Affairs or the rippling effect it would have to its other shows. But through an updated programme guide we've got to see the harsh realities of these changes.
From May 6th, Evil Affairs will only air daily at 22:00 with repeats of Game Of Love at 09:00 followed by The Evil Eye at 13:00. The channel had failed to mention Beyond Love had been caught in the crossfire as it too will be losing daytime repeats.
From our understanding, Star Life's schedule follows a particular format ABC-123 and breaking that would cause disruption. Seeing as Game Of Love And The Evil Eye didn't get that much airtime in its current state slotting them in minimized the problem.
Instead of Beyond Love getting double bill repeats the channel probably wants to give all their other shows a fair amount of airtime. Of course, the decision to remove Beyond Love and Evil Affairs from the daytime had only stirred up criticism amongst consumers.
Some are led to wonder if more censorship could be instilled from this point on. If StarPlus had a another program like Evil Affairs it could be excluded another instance is that Star Life follows Telemundo and makes 22:00 their "Super Series" slot.
But then there comes issues with Star Life in this matter, Telemundo is willing to repeat these shows throughout the night until no later than 5am. Star Life to make 15 shows look bloated at this point offers zero repeats for the affected shows in the night.
It's more of a you snooze you lose type of scenario here as some consumers would probably have to wait a couple of months or years for a rebroadcast of Beyond Love. Unlike Evil Affairs, it is more of a victim and that is due to its current timeslot.
Notes
• Evil Affairs airs daily at 22:00 followed by Beyond Love at 22:30 from May 6th.
• Repeats of Game Of Love airs daily at 09:00 and The Evil Eye at 13:00 also from May 6th.
• The schedule remains the same for other shows.
