The Botched and Real Housewives star are set to host a new series The ultimate power couple is sharing their secrets for a successful marriage. But will Terry Dubrow and Heather Dubrow's efforts be enough to save another couple's marriage? That's what they're determined to find out on E!'s The Seven Year Stitch. Audiences rarely get to see reality stars at work and at home. The intimate view the Dubrow's have given to fans of the pros and cons of every aspect of their lives clarifies why they are ideal relationship experts. According to Dr. Dubrow, he believes that “one of the key things about a relationship is that it has good and bad parts.” While that might not seem like the perfect script, it is reality. More importantly, he said that “if you don’t keep your relationship to a certain degree under a microscope and keep an eye on it, it will get out from under you.” Heather explained, the heart of the program is to see how and why couples can be stitche

As Predicted, PBS Kids Replaces eToonz On DStv Easyview With eExtra Possibly Being Phased Out For Either Telemundo And/Or Novela Magic

MultiChoice continues disregarding the existence of Easyview package which is set to lose 2 channels by the end of March. As seen in the previous week, MultiChoice found the relevant replacement for some packages. Through an enquiry it was revealed that Easyview customers would be getting the educational channel, PBS Kids (channel 313) in place of entertainment channel eToonz (channel 311) and of course MultiChoice couldn't bother to mention that when announcing the addition of KIX to Access. PBS Kids was available on the Easyview package when the channel was exclusive to the DStv app but likely due to costs it was put on Access when it launched in 2019.

TRAGEDY 💔: The True Story Of Disney's Beloved Fairytale Princess, Pocahontas

Image
Many tales have been told about Pocahontas, but not all of them are true. Pocahontas has been romanticized throughout American history, thanks in no small part to the accounts of English settlers John Smith and John Rolfe, and of course, the 1995 Disney animated movie. But who was the real Pocahontas? To help dispel the many myths surrounding the popular Native American figure, here are some facts that originate from Native American oral history and contemporary historical accounts. Pocahontas was actually her nickname Born around 1596, Pocahontas was actually known as Amonute, and to those closest to her, Matoaka. The name Pocahontas, in fact, belonged to her mother, who died while giving birth to her.

During the week, viewers were disturbed to hear the announcement that MultiChoice will be severing ties with most of eMedia Investments set of channels leaving them with e.tv and eNCA as the others remain available on Openview. In these strings of announcements, MultiChoice announced several new channels KIX which will be also made available to Access customers, DreamWorks Channel and a second movie channel to make up for the scrapped channels. Interesting enough, MultiChoice hasn't found a suitor for eExtra either they still haven't looked or just don't care and the other could be that they have already found its suitor and its staring at viewer's faces.

The Possible Reason Behind eToonz, eMovies, eMovies Extra And eExtra's Demise On DStv

Image
MultiChoice has decided to part ways with the channels after almost 5 years following their failure to renew the contract with eMedia Investments for the channels. As some are aware, eMedia Investments hasn't been profiting from these brands ever since their induction on DStv. They went from earning earning over R200 million with eNCA to less than R150 when eExtra, eMovies, eMovies Extra and eToonz were added. During the years, the red brand has experienced their frustration with the pay-tv company. Take for instance the oral hearing set by ICASA, eMedia Investments boasted about how popular their channels were and MultiChoice not taking that into consideration left them with peanuts.

EVIL🔞: "Gloomy Sunday" The Song That Caused Suicides

Image
If you're under 18 then this isn't for you “Gloomy Sunday,” came to existence during one of history’s bleakest moments. Written in 1933 by Hungarian pianist and composer Reszõ Seress against the backdrop of the Great Depression and an increasing fascist influence in Hungary, and originally recorded in 1935 by Pál Kalmár, the song is something of a plea for mercy as humanity is at its worst. Seress’ original published lyrics were titled “Vége a világnak,” or “The World Is Ending,” and reflected a growing sense of horror and despair at the state of the world. A key sample lyric translates to “Meadows are coloured red with human blood/There are dead people on the streets everywhere,” just to give a frame of reference for the level of darkness that Seress’ composition harbored. No wonder it’s been blamed for anywhere between 17 and over 100 suicides. To hear “Gloomy Sunday” is to be blanketed in tragic beauty. The song’s minor key melody is at once incredibly catchy and ominously
