MultiChoice doesn't stop with the surprises not only is SABC Encore and ITV Choice getting discontinued but also Sundance TV from AMC International. Sundance TV launched in 2017 on DStv as a replacement channel for AMC. The only reason the channel existed was due to Fear The Walking Dead other than that there's pretty much nothing interesting on that channel it's basically another saturated TCM. There's no details as yet on why these channels are getting scrapped it could have something to do with the pandemic as rumored for sometime that DStv is cutting back on costs. These channels were probably the first batch of channels set to go dark on the platform. No replacements will be issued for these channels by the looks of it for those who watched Sundance they're being redirected to other movie channels, those with Encore will probably have to go back to SABC 1-3 and ITV Choice being BBC, M-Net and Universal. More channels will be added just not as pl

Yes, you heard correctly SABC Encore stops airing on DStv from June. The channel joins ITV Choice which is also set on DStv later in June. SABC Encore was conceived through a 5 year agreement back in 2013 between SABC and MultiChoice. In this deal, SABC had to supply a news and entertainment channel. Both channels severed delays in their launch before they eventually launched on DStv. SABC Encore was originally suppose to launch back in 2014 as SABC Entertainment. The channel along with SABC News were also part of DTT which is long overdue. SABC originally plotted to launch 18 channels before downsizing their plans to 9 channels back in 2018 and Encore wasn't listed in those plans only SABC 1-3, Education and News were mentioned meaning it's possible that the SABC was planning to scrap the brand at the time another sign of its turmoil was it's Facebook account as it stopped being active early last year. SABC went from 6 channels to just 5 again, for thos

As always eMedia Investments the company that runs OpenView with its set of e.tv channels has a history of not informing the media on upcoming developments another unexpected arrival has made its way to OpenView.

The channel airs repeats of old DC Animation that once aired on Cartoon Network such as Batman, Green Lantern, Superman and Young Justice along with DC Movies.
