Rumour: The Highly Anticipated Series Roekeloos Dade To Debut On e.tv Instead Of eExtra As Advised

Image
For several months, there's a mishap of information shared amongst consumers one of which had to do with Annekan Die Swa Kry or Roekeloos Dade. First announced in February, the series was set to replace #DisComplicated on eExtra now it's Om Elke Draai . The other issue has to do with the Afrikaans title for the series as sources still regard it as Roekeloos Dade while others Annekan Die Swa Kry both might be different shows but at this point the only accurate thing at the moment is the Turkish title, Hayat Sarkisi. Following the announcement of Om Elke Draai's launch on eExtra, several consumers had been curious as to what fate awaits, Roekeloos Dade. So no it's not going to streaming not that it would be a bad thing as it would be available on eExtra but instead it's going to e.tv. Daai Crazy Somer Season 2 rolls out on the channel in the coming weeks and interesting to note almost similar to Verdeelde Liefde. Both seasons have a much shorter duration or at le

Schedule Alert: Telemundo To Make A Comeback On eExtra With A Rebroadcast Of Broken Angel Aka Santa Diabla

Image
Two years ago, eMedia Investments halt distribution of Portuguese telenovelas from across their brands for Asian, Indian and Turkish dramas as they've proved to be favourable amongst consumers. Now Broken Angel (Santa Diabla) will be rolling out on eExtra. Broken Angel served as one of the initial offering and also the first telenovela to rollout when eKasi+ was phased out for eExtra. In an attempt to bolster their entertaining offering the channel offered a range of content from drama series, reality shows and movies. As seen later in the week, Broken Angel is set to make a comeback to the channel. It follows the story of Santa Martínez, a woman who seeks revenge for the murder of her husband Willy Delgado. Hired as a pianist at the Cano residence was falsely accused of rape. Blaming the Canos for the unjust death of her husband, Santa intends to destroy the Cano family, but as she tries to complete her mission, she meets and falls in love with Santiago Cano, the black sheep of th

In February, two titles were announced for the eExtra channel Hart Van Goud and Annekan Die Swa Kry of which one Hart Van Goud managed to debut as originally promised after Verdeelde Liefde while the other Annekan Die Swa Kry has quietly left the lineup. First teased as Roekeloos Dade , the series was meant to be replace #DisComplicated from April 26 and as seen a few hours ago that's no longer the case here as official pages start promoting Om Elke Draai (Her Yerde Sen) which is currently streaming on eVOD. As for Annekan Die Swa Kry, it's possible the series will launch at a later stage I mean at this point in time I wouldn't be shocked if it were to be made available to eVOD before even airing on eExtra if eVOD was willing

Recap To The Year: The Future Of eToonz, eMovies, eMovies Extra And eExtra On DStv Will Likely Be Unveiled In The Coming Weeks

Image
In 2017, eMedia Investments expanded their partnership with MultiChoice to include general entertainment channel eExtra, two movie channels eMovies and eMovies Extra and kiddies channel eToonz and since last year that all went to hell. MultiChoice attempted to replicate the offering with kykNET & Kie's international telenovela slate alongside the additions of DreamWorks and Movie Room . Since then, the pay-tv company had been ordered to keep these channels onboard their platforms for 6 months. Considering these channels were reinstated no later than August 2022 it means the channels were meant to go dark before the end of the previous financial year which is 31 March 2023 but few days into the next financial year they're still aboard. If we had guess it's possible MultiChoice extended the agreement for these 4 channels past the 6 month cutoff date I mean the idea wouldn't be far fetched. From what is known from reps, these channels aren't permanent but the

Could Courage The Cowardly Dog Be Revived As A Preschool Series?

Image
Courage The Cowardly Dog follows the titular character, a dog who lives with an elderly couple in ppa farmhouse in the middle of "Nowhere". In each episode, the trio is thrown into bizarre, frequently disturbing, and often paranormal or supernatural adventures. In 2018, John R. Dilworth was in negotiations with Boomerang for a revival or prequel series titled Before Courage. It was going to revolve around the titular character's days as a puppy or before he meet his owners, Muriel and her husband Eustace Bagge. When asked about the project in 2020, Dilworth responded that it had been "transformed into another thing". A year later, Dilworth revealed that the project was on turnaround as Cartoon Network's management is prioritizing their focus on other projects. But from what we can understand in this scenario, something regarding Courage The Cowardly Dog is in development maybe a new series or a film. Maybe this new form is probably a reboot of Courage T
