Channel Closure: CBS Reality And CBS Justice Will Also Be Going Dark On StarTimes And StarSat Platforms Across Africa By The End Of 2025

As some consumers already know, CBS Reality and CBS Justice would be exiting DStv platforms across Africa by the end of December. This decision wasn't made by MultiChoice but rather CBS AMC Networks International who provide these channels within the market.

They made the call to have the channels removed affecting not only DStv and GOtv customers but even the likes of StarSat and StarTimes.

StarTimes sent a notice to subscribers that both channels also be looking to exit their platforms by the end of December. Consumers on both MultiChoice and StarTimes end will be starting the new year with even lesser content.

CBS Justice brings you authentic criminal cases and investigations expertly dissected using cutting edge forensic technologies, always factual, always true. Some of the shows include Cold Blood, Coastal Killers, Forensics, Evidence Of Evil and Homicide's Elite. 

CBS Reality offers captivating television guaranteed to shock and entertain. It features one of the most beloved TV personalities, the queen of the courtroom herself: Judge Judy. Other great shows include the ever-popular Cheaters.

MultiChoice is currently embroiled in a carriage dispute with Warner Bros. Discovery regarding its 12 channels on their platforms. StarTimes went through a similar route years prior and the CBS channels served as their replacements.

Now that these two channels are going off the air soon consumers can tune into TLC, Discovery and Investigation Discovery. Consumers here are in a better position as opposed to that of MultiChoice.

CBS Reality and CBS Justice's terminations were confirmed last month and Warner Bros. Discovery was the only alternative for consumers. Now that could as well be wiped out unlike South Africa where MultiChoice is the only player in the field consumers can run to StarTimes, Azam TV or even Zuku TV.
