Impilo Ka Vaidehi Coming Soon To Zee Zonke

Zee Zonke, a Zulu dubbed Bollywood entertainment channel operated by Zee Entertainment Enterprises has unveiled a new series, Impilo Ka Vaidehi. Known in India as Vaidehi Parinayam, the Telegu series launches on the 16th of March.

Synopsis for Impilo Ka Vaidehi 

It follows Vaidehi, a kind-hearted orphan who lives with her adoptive family. Her life changes drastically when her sister, an aspiring actress, runs away just before her wedding. To save her family's reputation, Vaidehi is compelled to take her sister's place and marry Devansh. 

Devansh, the male lead, has lost faith in the institution of marriage due to the failure of his brother's relationship. He initially enters the union with skepticism. The two protagonists are first brought together by a "mysterious accident" that sets the stage for their eventual marriage.

Vaidehi begins to build a life and a new identity within Devansh’s family. However, this stability is threatened when her sister returns. Most of the series focuses on Devansh gradually moving past his trauma and learning to love Vaidehi as they navigate various family schemes and internal conflicts. 

It starred Yuktha Malnad (credited as Anjana) as Vaidehi, Pavan Ravindra as Devansh (Ram) and Karuna Bhushan as Urmila. With Dileep Shetty and Aishwarya set to have recurring roles.

The show ran for over 500 episodes, concluding its original run in mid-2023.

Zee Zonke, a Zulu dubbed Bollywood entertainment channel operated by Zee Entertainment Enterprises has unveiled a new series, Amanga Nothando. Known in India as Shravani Subramanya, the Kannada series launches on the 16th of March.

Synopsis for Amanga Nothando 

Veerendranath Desai, a high-ranking minister, mistakenly blames his daughter, Shravani, for all the misfortunes in his life. Shravani, despite never receiving his affection, constantly craves his love and approval.

To please her father, Shravani initially agrees to marry the man he chooses for her, Madan.

Upon discovering Madan's "sinister intentions" and that her aunt Vijaya is plotting to steal the family property, Shravani feigns a marriage with Subramanya (Subbu) to escape the situation. 

Subbu works as a trusted right-hand man for Veerendranath. He is aware of the family dynamics and actively tries to bridge the gap between the father and daughter.

Shravani's aunt, Vijaya, is the primary antagonist. She manipulates Veerendranath into believing she is the "Lakshmi" (blessing) of the house while secretly planning to marry Shravani to her own son to secure their wealth.

Amanga Nothando starred Amogh Aaditya as Subramanya (Subbu), Asiya Firdose as Shravani, Mohan as Veerendranath Sardesai, Balaraj as Ananthapadmanabha (Padmanabha), Chaithra Rao as Moksha and Apoorvashree as Vishalakshi.

As of March 2026, the series has aired over 530 episodes and continues to release new content.

Beginning April 1, 2026, Netflix Will Start Streaming WWE Across Germany, Switzerland, Austria And Africa

Netflix had begun sending notice to various consumers in Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Africa informing them about the inclusion on WWE and it goes as follows:

Beginning April 1, 2026, Netflix will be the new exclusive home of WWE in your region.

Netflix brings WWE's electrifying content all to one place, including weekly shows, RAW, SmackDown and NXT, PLUS Premium Live Events (PLEs) such as WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, and SummerSlam.

Many of WWE's top moments, along with historic PLEs and select programming, are available on Netflix, including WrestleMania 42, which emanate live from Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19. Don't miss the "Best in the World" CM Punk as he goes head-to-head against "The OTC" Roman Reigns for the World Heavyweight Championship.

If you're a Netflix subscriber, you're all set. If you are not a Netflix subscriber, you will need to subscribe so you don't miss a moment. We can't wait for you to experience WWE on Netflix.

For sometime, BILD and ProSieben MAXX served as the right holders for these events in Germany, Switzerland and Austria with SuperSport in Africa. This announcement means that these events will no longer be accessible on those outlets. 

However, we're still awaiting further comment from SuperSport about WWE's early induction onto Netflix. As the current deal, MultiChoice has with WWE was only set to expire in 2027.

After Canal+ acquired MultiChoice in 2025, Canal Afrique consumers gained access to SuperSport's expanded sports offering. This included Raw, SmackDown, NXT and premium events like Royal Rumble on the 24 hour WWE channel.

It could be that SuperSport (for now) still holds linear rights to the WWE as they never enforced those onto Showmax. Another could be that under Canal+, they opted to scrap the carriage deal as part of their cost cutting endeavours.

Rumour: Disney XD To Become Disney Jr. In Poland

Since last year, Disney had begun reviving some of its linear operations in some parts of the world with the relaunch of Disney Jr. in the UK and Italy. Now it looks like Disney Junior will be widening it's reach as it's alleged to replace Disney XD in April.

As seen on the Polish website Naziemna, Disney XD's schedule has now been piled up with Disney Jr. programming like Marvel's Spidey And His Amazing Friends and Disney Jr's Ariel. While the rebrand has yet to be confirmed it wouldn't come as a shocker.

Disney XD's carriage has declined rapidly across the world as Disney was looking to consolidate most of its efforts under Disney+. This led not only to several Disney XD feeds from closing but that of Disney Channel and Disney Jr. as well.

Disney XD has been an afterthought for the company and moving aimlessly with very little content investment. This led the company to launch Disney Jr. in place of the brand as they continue to expand the slate of preschool content.

Disney XD's demise in Poland is inevitable at this point and it's closure would bring the end to the brand's international footprint. As this was the last remaining international market to offer Disney XD while others closed or folded under Disney Jr.

Unlike most feeds, Disney XD served as a joint venture between Disney and AMC Networks International and could continue operating under that structure with Disney Jr. As shows like Big City Greens and Gravity Falls move to Disney Channel.

TLC South Africa brings viewers an unmissable new three‑part documentary series, Inside the Kim Kardashian Heist, offering unprecedented access and fresh insight into the 2016 robbery that shook pop culture, law enforcement, and global media. Premiering Sunday, 1 March at 21:00 on TLC South Africa (DStv Channel 135), the series unpacks the night Kim Kardashian was held at gunpoint in her Paris hotel room and robbed of jewellery valued at more than $6 million.

 

Set against the high‑glamour backdrop of Paris Fashion Week, the documentary revisits what French authorities described as “the biggest robbery in France for 50 years.” Through exclusive interviews with those closest to the crime, from the concierge who lived through the ordeal to a member of the ageing criminal crew later dubbed the “Grandpa Gang”, the series reveals new layers to a case that captivated the world.

 

Featuring never‑before‑heard testimonies, forensic detail from the police investigation, and the extraordinary twists that followed, Inside the Kim Kardashian Heist explores how a group of unlikely suspects executed a meticulously planned crime that exposed vulnerabilities at the heart of celebrity culture, security, and international media frenzy.

Episode 1: “The Heist” – Premieres 1 March at 21:00

Amid the glitz of Paris Fashion Week 2016, Kim Kardashian, one of the world’s most recognisable figures, is robbed at gunpoint in her private hotel residence. For Kim and the concierge, Mr Abderrahmane Ouatiki, the night becomes a traumatic turning point. As France reels from the embarrassment of its biggest jewel theft in half a century, early speculation points to the infamous Pink Panthers. But the elite Anti‑Bandit Brigade suspects something far more complex.

 

Episode 2: “The Inside Man” – Premieres 8 March at 21:00

As Kim withdraws from public view, conspiracy theories explode online. Under mounting pressure, French investigators race to restore the country’s reputation.

The question of who orchestrated the heist from the inside becomes the central mystery.

A New Dawn For African Superheroes: The Impact Of Batwing Unmasked On TNT Across Africa

In an era where African superheroes are celebrated on a global stage, one of the first remains largely in the shadows. Now, a groundbreaking documentary, BATWING Unmasked: An African Super Hero, premiering on TNT Africa (DStv 137) on Friday, 6 March at 19:30 CAT, seeks to change that by asking a powerful question: “Why is Batwing scarcely known, even in Africa, and what can African creators teach us about expanding his legacy?”

 

Produced by Joachim Landau and directed by Thomas Letellier, the 52-minute film revisits the ambitious story of Batwing. The character, originally David Zavimbe, a former child soldier in the Democratic Republic of Congo who later became an elite police officer, was the first African superhero to operate on African soil within DC’s official continuity. The documentary explores the initial creative ambition and the tensions that came with it: how to portray a country marked by real conflict without sensationalism, and how to avoid clichés while meeting the expectations of a predominantly Western readership.

 

The film features insights from Batwing’s American co-creator, Judd Winick, alongside a powerful roster of African and diaspora voices who analyse the hero’s cultural significance. “Batwing stands at the crossroads of representation and imagination,” says producer Joachim Landau. “His story forces us to confront who gets to be visible in global pop culture and why. With this documentary, we wanted to give Batwing back to the continent.”

 

A central point of the documentary is the critical shift in the character's history. After its launch, the series struggled commercially, leading DC to ‘reboot’ Batwing with a new identity: Luke Fox, an African-American character based in the United States. BATWING Unmasked investigates this pivotal moment, asking whether it was a purely commercial decision, an admission of the challenges of sustaining an African hero, or a sign of the structural limits of diversity in major publishing.

The film platforms the African creatives who can speak to this complexity. For South African actor Siv Ngesi, Batwing’s story is profoundly personal. “Batwing is a hero who carries darkness, trauma, and hope all at once, and that’s what makes him so profoundly African,” Ngesi shares. “Representation isn’t just about visibility; it’s about healing.”

South African artist Loyiso Mkize, who offers his perspective in the film, believes Batwing was a breakthrough. “He showed that African heroes can be complex, grounded and powerful without being filtered through a Western gaze,” he explains. “His story challenges the industry to embrace African imagination as a force that can stand on its own.” The documentary also features Nigerian-American actor Chukwudi Iwuji (Peacemaker), who discusses the identity and reception issues faced by African talent in the U.S. entertainment industry.

 

As African creativity continues to influence global culture, BATWING Unmasked arrives at a crucial time. It positions the hero not just as a character, but as a cultural turning point. A reminder that African stories deserve to be told by African voices.

 

This March, TNT Africa kicks off the TNT DC Legends Stunt with the exclusive premiere of BATWING Unmasked: An African Super Hero. This special programming block will run every Friday night, allowing viewers to dive into nine iconic Batman films that bridge the gap from the classic hero of Gotham to the modern hero of Tinasha.

MultiChoice Will Be Adding Base Pulse As A Replacement To MTV Base On DStv

Not long ago, it was reported that MultiChoice was testing out another music channel which had since been using the same frequency as MTV Base. This came after MTV Base and Paramount's 3 other channels had exited the platform earlier in the year. 

MTV Base served as one of the longest running channels within Paramount's stable offering a variety of African music. It was ranked the #1 music channel in West Africa which led to the rollout of MTV Base West - a localised feed.

After it's closure, a DStv viewer had started to notice a test card for MTV Base leading fueling speculation of a revival. 

Now word has spread on across social media that MultiChoice will be adding Base Pulse as a replacement to MTV Base. From what we can see this almost looks like a rebrand notice how both channels use Base and have the same presenters.

It's likely that when Paramount decided to close MTV Base and it's operations in Africa. Another brand swooped in and opted to takeover it's operations leading to the removal of the MTV name with Base taking center stage.

Base Pulse is being positioned as a next-generation hub blending music, storytelling, youth trends, and culture (with vibes like "drip" and "umswenko" as part of the lifestyle). The official tagline: "Rooted in youth. Powered by Africa’s pulse. Amplified beyond the screen."

It will not only take up MTV Base's channel number but also be available on the same package being DStv Access on channel 322.

"Regular Show: Lost Tapes" Is Set To Premiere In May On Cartoon Network Across Europe And Possible Africa

We're getting closer and closer to returning to the beloved Park alongside Mordecai, Rigby, and the rest of the gang. Although there's still little concrete information about the mysterious revival of Regular Show—known in Latin America as Un show más and in Spain as Historias corrientes—we finally know that Cartoon Network is planning for its premiere to take place in May of this year.

The news came via the Hungarian outlet Mentrum, which specializes in cable television. In an article reviewing upcoming premieres on channels like Nickelodeon and Disney Channel, the site also included Cartoon Network, detailing that the new series Regular Show: Lost Tapes will arrive in May. Later, it reaffirmed the information on its Facebook page."

For now, the information corresponds to the CEE feed (Central and Eastern Europe), the signal broadcast in Hungary. However, if we take as precedent the recent international launch of the The Amazing World of Gumball revival—titled in Spanish El maravillosamente extraño mundo de Gumball—, which debuted in multiple territories on the same day, it wouldn't be surprising if we're looking at another globally coordinated premiere for the various Cartoon Network feeds, including Boing in Spain. This would also entail the global streaming launch of the series on HBO Max.

The exception could be Canada, where it was previously reported that Regular Show: Lost Tapes would premiere on Adult Swim. This is because the signals there are operated by Corus Entertainment and not directly by Warner Bros. Discovery. In fact, in that territory, the Gumball return airs on YTV instead of Cartoon Network.

It's speculated that the chosen date could be Friday, May 1st, coinciding with International Workers' Day—a not insignificant nod for a series centered around two rather particular employees—, though this has not yet been officially confirmed."

What still raises doubts is its broadcast in the United States. In recent years, Cartoon Network has significantly reduced its original production in that market, sharing time slots with Adult Swim and relying more and more on classic catalog titles and external acquisitions. In that context, the Gumball return premiered exclusively on the Hulu platform, without appearing on HBO Max or the linear channel.

Even so, it's worth noting that Regular Show has regained presence in Cartoon Network's linear programming globally, including the United States, Europe, and Latin America. In some markets, it even occupies more space in the schedule than more recent productions like Craig of the Creek, Teen Titans Go!, and We Baby Bears.

It should be clarified that, so far, the information has not been officially confirmed by Cartoon Network, HBO Max, or Warner Bros. Discovery. Therefore, these are preliminary data subject to possible changes in scheduling. As is usual in these cases, it will be necessary to wait for a formal announcement from the company to have certainties about the date and scope of the premiere.

Created by J. G. Quintel, the original series aired for eight seasons between 2010 and 2017 and had a television movie in 2015. The story follows Mordecai and Rigby, two gardeners expert at dodging responsibilities who turn the simplest tasks into monumental chaos. In the process, they drag their coworkers—Skips, Pops, Muscle Man, High Five Ghost—and their boss Benson into situations that escalate absurdly quickly: what starts as a regular shift can end in a zombie apocalypse, an interdimensional showdown, or outright the end of the world.

The franchise has also shown signs of revitalization outside of television. It recently had a collaboration with Fortnite, which incorporated playable skins of Mordecai and Skips, Rigby as a pet, and various cosmetics designed for fans. Additionally, the collectible brand Youtooz launched a series of figures of Mordecai, Rigby, and Skips inspired by iconic moments from the series. Likewise, Cartoon Network UK, the international arm of Cartoon Network, created an official Instagram account for the series.

Regular Show: Lost Tapes was announced in June 2024 during the Annecy International Animation Film Festival as a project in the early stages of development, though already greenlit. The subtitle “Lost Tapes” could allude to “lost” episodes or new stories set in the early years of the series. And there's a detail that fuels that theory: in the series finale, it's revealed that the entire show was contained on a VHS tape that Pops watches in the sky, a metanarrative device that today seems more relevant than ever. Like its predecessor, it is produced by Cartoon Network Studios.

It is not the only revival of a beloved Cartoon Network series on the way, as this year should also see the premieres of Adventure Time: Side Quests and Foster's Funtime for Imaginary Friends, inspired by Adventure Time and Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.

Lost Women Of Alaska: SA‑Born Killer’s Case Becomes The Focus Of A Powerful New Documentary Premiering On ID Africa In March

Leading true crime network Investigation Discovery brings the Emmy‑nominated LOST WOMEN franchise back with a gripping new instalment. LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA unpacks the chilling crimes of a South African‑born killer whose actions shook a remote community and exposed deep cracks in the systems meant to protect vulnerable women. This three‑part event invites African viewers into a gripping investigation that uncovers how two Indigenous women were targeted, overlooked, and ultimately connected through a trail of evidence that stunned authorities.

 

Over three gripping hours, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA premieres on Sunday, 8 March at 21:00 on ID Africa (DStv channel 171).

 

“Expanding the LOST WOMEN franchise allows us to shine a light on cases involving underrepresented women, and LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA confronts the devastating intersection of race and systemic failures that perpetuate violence against Indigenous women. I’m honoured to continue this partnership with ID to amplify these crucial stories and create bold, meaningful work,” said Executive Producer Octavia Spencer.

 

As the LOST WOMEN franchise continues to provoke important conversations around society’s treatment of women, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA offers an unsettling look into the murders of Veronica Abouchuk and Kathleen Jo Henry, killed in 2018 and 2019. They join a cacophony of Indigenous voices seemingly lost without a trace in the remote Alaskan landscape, but through the courage of some unlikely heroes, the twisted crimes of a potential serial killer come to light. Over three episodes packed with surprising turns, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA delivers intimate and unflinching access to the disturbing impact of a predator who turns a community into a personal hunting ground. But his arrest is only the beginning of a far deeper horror.

 

“Octavia brings a level of care to every story she touches,” said Jason Sarlanis, President of ID. “LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA helps expose a crisis impacting Indigenous women with sensitivity and cinematic power. We’re proud to continue building prestige true‑crime storytelling together.”

 

As South Africa continues its fight against gender‑based violence, LOST WOMEN OF ALASKA arrives as a timely and haunting reminder of the cost of silence. With its unexpected South African connection and its commitment to restoring dignity to the victims, the series is set to spark important conversations across the continent.

NBCUniversal International Networks & Direct-To-Consumer Announce That E! And Syfy Will Rebrand To Bravo And Sci-Fi In France

E! will become Bravo, the iconic international NBCUniversal channel dedicated to reality TV and the genre's iconic franchises, while SYFY will become SciFi, with a new name and new visual identity, while remaining the essential destination for science-fiction fans.

The Universal+ entertainment offering – which includes 13ÈME RUE, DreamWorks, and soon Bravo and SciFi – is available in France via SFR, Bouygues Telecom, Prime Video, Molotov, Free, and Orange (but not Canal+).

"The entertainment offering provided by Universal+ in France is stepping up a gear with the launch of Bravo and the arrival of SciFi.", declares Hendrik McDermott, Managing Director, Hayu, EMEA Networks & International Direct-To-Consumer, NBCUniversal. 

"Thanks to Bravo, a globally recognized leader in the reality TV universe, French viewers will be able to watch even more must-see content and iconic franchises, paired with a completely revamped science-fiction channel look with SciFi."

"Present for many years in the United States, and accessible in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Africa, Bravo is an iconic television channel, recognized for its premium reality TV offering and flagship franchises. Driven by the immense popularity of Bravo content, E! had already expanded its selection of Bravo programs in recent months.

The rebranded channel will air even more flagship Bravo shows, including: The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Below Deck and its spin-offs (Mediterranean, Sailing Yacht, Australia), Southern Hospitality, Bravo’s Love Hotel, Next Gen.

A new look and a new name, but still the essential destination for science-fiction fans, SciFi continues to offer flagship genre programs while enriching its schedule with exclusive new releases, including the new series War of the Kingdoms, available in full on demand; Domino Day; and The Librarians: The Next Chapter (Season 2), with a launch planned this year.

Channel Closure: TV Mozambique Internacional Will Stop Airing On DStv And GOtv From 24 February 2026

Last month, TLNovelas was axed from the DStv platform as part of Canal+'s cost cutting measures at MultiChoice. This had also led SuperSport to miss out on Philly's Games and Winter Olympics with local content being further reduced at M-Net.

With the month not even up yet, it appears MultiChoice will be claiming another victim on DStv and this time it's TV Mozambique Internacional. 

TV Mozambique, is the international channel of Mozambique's national TV broadcaster, Televisão de Moçambique (TVM), broadcasting for 24 hours per day. It showcased local programming featuring Mozambican culture, tourism and sports.

At the time, Marta Odallah, TVM Internacional director, says "The addition of TVM Internacional on DStv is in line with our objective to spread the social, political, cultural and sporting reality of Mozambique across our borders".

"This collaboration is a giant leap for both TVM and MultiChoice, and indeed a step in the right direction of broadcasting inclusivity for all Mozambicans".

After 7 years, the channel will now be going dark on DStv from 24 February and it appears as if the closure is being swept under the rug. Unlike TLNovelas, MultiChoice hadn't notice to DStv subscribers about TV Mozambique Internacional.

This is not only the second channel to go dark during the year but like TLNovelas catered to Portuguese speaking countries. With TVM Mozambique gone, Kwenda and Maningue Magic would basically be the only other alternatives.

The problem part is that these brands are based in Angola and Mozambique while TVM Mozambique Internacional broadened it's reach to other parts of Africa.

Pinky Malinky To Make Linear Debut On Nicktoons Global Feeds Across Europe And Africa

Nicktoons, an animation channel operated by Paramount Global that airs reruns to various shows from its sister network, Nickelodeon has acquired rights to Pinky Malinky. After failing to launch to Nickelodeon, Netflix served as it's frontier.

Pinky Malinky premiered on January 1, 2019, on Netflix with a New Year's-themed short released just before. It also concluded during the year with 60 episodes across 3 seasons and for the past 7 years was available on the streamer.

With the licensing deal set to expire soon, Pinky Malinky will have its first exclusive run on Nicktoons from April 20. It is currently unknown when or if Pinky Malinky would eventually be made available on Nickelodeon 

Synopsis for Pinky Malinky

Pinky Malinky is an infectiously positive, optimistic 12-year-old middle school student who just happens to be a walking, talking hot dog. He lives in the town of Sackenhack and sees the bright side of everything — even being born a hot dog. The show follows his everyday life and misadventures as he tries to climb the social ladder, pursue big ideas, and navigate typical kid problems alongside his two best friends (BFFs).

The series is presented in a mockumentary/fly-on-the-wall "reality show" format (similar to The Office), with characters occasionally breaking the fourth wall in confessionals. Pinky is full of enthusiasm, makes social media videos, sings, dances, and tackles challenges with his friends — though his extreme positivity sometimes leads to funny mishaps.
