Morena Starring Paola Nuñez Premieres In March 2020 On eExtra

eExtra supplied by eMedia Investments which is available on OpenView channel 105, DStv channel 195 and Starsat channel 489 is once again over indulging their viewers with more choice in programming with the premiere of Pasion Morena in short Morena. The series debuted back in 2009 on Azteca TV and 2013 on FOX. The series was originally slated to premiere back in February of last year on the defunct channel eBella in a much appropriate timeslot which I'll get back to as you read on.

Morena is about the destinies of her and Leo who meet in a serenity of a jungle. There first encounter stirs a lot of attraction between them that lingers in their memory forever. With both of them having a different kind of background, it’s so hard to know if their two opposing world will let their love and passion flourish.

Morena Madrigal (Paola Nunez) is a skillful and a well traveled woman who studied in New York while Leo is a man who was raised in the jungle and is ignorant about his origin since the man he considers his father is not.

After that first encounter in the jungle they both part ways without knowing that they would meet again in Mexico City. Leo is in the city looking for his real father when he meets Morena again. Leo does not know how to behave in the big city because of his jungle background, Morena offers to teach him etiquette and they gradually fall in love.
With the love they have for one another as strong as a foundation stone, Morena and Leo stand together to fight for their love although their greedy enemies unite against them.

The problem with this show is the timeslot eExtra airs it at 8:50 with repeats at 2:05 so unless e.tv plots to air it as well or repeat it on Rewind or try to scrap one of the repeats from eExtra timeslot I assume the show won't pull much viewers since most of the population is at work or school.

New Channel Alert On DStv (Rumor): Another KykNet Channel

Over the weekend where some may not be at home, others may scroll through the channels checking for something different then if they're lucky something appears that's what happened at the moment.

A viewer apparently noticed another Afrikaans Channel thinking it could be Via, KykNet or its sister channel only for the channel to have a different format it begs to wonder if MultiChoice plans to expand the Afrikaans lineup soon.

This untitled channel has programming such as Binnelanders, Suidooster, Kom Ons Karaoke and Die Laaste Wals. Content which air on KykNet already which seems natural for a possible "new" channel.

Maybe it's another KykNet channel set to replace KykNet Nou or Kie (doubt it) or maybe its coming as an additional channel for customers without any Afrikaans programming either way the channel seems more like Discovery's Real Time (repeats).

More details regarding the channel might be unveiled in a few weeks time including the channel's name, package and release date. If it happens to be another Real Time/SABC Encore type channel it will probably be more beneficial to Access or Easyview customers.

Starsat/StarTimes Silently Return The Disney Channels After Commercial Issues But Fail To Answer The Mystery Question

Disney has quietly returned it yanked FOX channels as well as the two rebranded ESPN channels to the Chinese-run StarSat pay-TV operator after an absence of four and a half months following a commercial disagreement and contract dispute.

The Walt Disney Company removed its entire FOX Networks Group channels set - FOX, FOX Life, FOX Portuguese, National Geographic, Nat Geo WILD, National Geographic Portuguese, Baby TV, Voyage, National Geographic French, and Nat Geo WILD French – from the Chinese-run StarTimes StarSat with the channels that abruptly went dark without warning in October 2019.

StarSat bizarrely claimed that it decided to remove specifically the FOX channels (although not FOX News) because of alleged "5G cellphone signal testing interference" affecting just these channels. The Walt Disney Company however said that it decided to remove its channels from StarTimes/StarSat since it became fed-up with ongoing commercial issues at the pay-TV operator and decided to pull all of its FOX-supplied channels after negotiations had failed.

In addition, the FOX Sports and FOX Sports 2 channels that were rebranded to ESPN and ESPN following the Disney takeover of 21st Century Fox, failed to materialise as promised in mid-September on StarSat which caused huge embarrassment to both Disney and StarSat.

The FOX channel set quietly flickered back on StarSat on Thursday with no announcement from Evert van der Veer, the vice-president, media networks of The Walt Disney Company Africa or Christine Service, senior vice president of The Walt Disney Company Africa.
Jared Stokes, senior communications manager at The Walt Disney Company Africa said in response to a media enquiry on Thursday from that the company won't issue a press release but that "We can confirm that our channels are currently being provided and are available on StarTimes/StarSat" and referred media enquiries to StarSat.

Disney was asked why the FOX channels and ESPN were returned to StarSat but didn't want to answer the specific questions. In a mobile message sent to just subscribers on Thursday, StarSat said: "Dear Customer, all FOX channels are back on StarSat now". StarSat on Thursday said it would respond with answers posed in a media enquiry but hasn't by the time of publication of this report on Friday morning.

The question remains on what will happen to the supposed replacement channels at the time these Disney Channels went dark Starsat did mention trying to sourcing out alternatives so far you only have Smithsonian and Love Nature that were once replacements for National Geographic. Now, some should wonder if they even sourced out those former replacement channels.

Not only that but Starsat lost Smile of a Child, Trace Africa, Kiss, POP and Animaux so how many of these could eventually be replaced and due to all these Disney Channels will Starsat be able to handle the costs or will they cut back on even more channels and replace some with low standard channels.

Another possible thing is that they could hike the fees like MultiChoice had done this year on some if not all packages and possibly add some more channels to give customers more to indulge and reason to keep subscribing.
