Development Alert: Doodsondes, Elif And Die Put Cancelled On eExtra And eVOD, To Broadcast Through 2025

In September 2020, eMedia Investments introduced the Turkish series, Elif to South African audiences. To date, it happens to be one of the longest running shows on Kuiertyd alongside Die Put which is currently in its 3rd season on eVOD in the action space.

Another series which will also be concluding in the Kuiertyd space is Doodsondes. Unlike Elif and Die Put which hail from eExtra, the latter will bid farewell on eMedia Investments' streaming service, eVOD.

As advised, eMedia Investments is only left with 1 season for the above-mentioned (with 2 for Doodsondes) and this will be the first time in 3 years that the 18:30 slot will be used for anything else. Elif has been the only show airing back-to-back while others went on production break.

At the moment, there's no clue on if eMedia Investments would pursue another long format that would surpass Elif but the brand did make Annekan Die Swa Kry available on eVOD after failing to launch it on eExtra as advised in the year with 3 seasons in the pipeline.

Although Doodsondes had concluded during the year in Turkey. It has been learnt by producer Fatih Askoy that he's exploring a seventh season. As of right now, it will end with a 6th season by 2024/5 and it may be a while before a 7th season comes to fruition.

Lastly, Die Put has been airing on a year to year basis unlike Doodsondes which had a 1 year hiatus. As advised, the third season is currently streaming on eVOD with the final season coming later in 2024/5 as seen with Doodsondes.

Elif's fifth and final season is also rolling out later in the coming year and as consumers noticed. It's currently the longest running series to date on Kuiertyd meaning it will likely be carried through 2025 and I wouldn't be shocked if the same awaits Die Put and Doodsondes.

Elif featured the talents of İsabella Damla Güvenılır stars as Elif Emiroğlu, Selin Sezgin stars as Melek Özer (Elif's mother), Volkan Çolpan stars as Kenan Emiroğlu (Elif's father) and Cemre Melis Çınar stars as Arzu Karapınar (Kenan's ex wife, the main villain of the series).

All of which are family members, Die Put featured the talents of Aras Bulut İynemli as Yamaç Koçovalı, Dilan Çiçek Deniz as Sena Koçovalı, Damla Sönmez as Efsun Kent, Erkan Kolçak as Köstendil Salih Koçovalı and Ercan Kesal as İdris Koçovalı.

Lastly Doodsondes featured the talents of Şevval Sam as Ender Çelebi, Eda Ece as Yıldız Yılmaz, Biran Damla Yılmaz as Kumru Yıldırım, Murat Aygen as Doğan Yıldırım, Şebnem Dönmez as Handan Kılıç and Sevda Erginci as Zeynep Yılmaz.

Early Sketches Of Various DStv Packages Part Of Which Didn't Exist At The Time

DStv launched as South Africa's first pay-tv service in 1995 offering 18 premium channels. Now the platform has grown to become the biggest player in sports with SuperSport and include over 120+ channels which range from general entertainment, lifestyle and news.

Some of the bouquets include the mid tier Compact bouquet which has seen a decline in consumers following the forever changing economy and it's potential predecessor Access which has seen a growth in local commission and premium entertainment.

Before these bouquets were made accessible to the market sources mentioned that earlier sketches of the DStv bouquet were proposed but had since then not been used.

As seen below, each bouquet had named based on the quantity of channels and each had their own imprinted logos to give it more effect. Although, it's not known when work on these possible bouquets began we assume work started out in the later parts of 2010 based on the offering.


The cheapest bouquet was priced R20p/m and only consists of 17 channels including SABC 1-3, Mindset and TBN and the most expensive bouquet is priced R590p/m and features 90 channels including M-Net, Boomerang, Comedy Central and Discovery Channel.

Initially, DStv started out as a singular platform and it wasn't until 2005 were they opted for more bouquets, Compact. And if we understand anything about this sketch MultiChoice always intended to have more bouquets as Compact+ didn't exist when some of these channels were on the platform.

Meta To Launch It's Twitter App This Week

Twitter users have been facing a lot of issues over the past few months, but things got even worse last weekend after the company decided to limit the number of tweets users can see per day. To take advantage of this, Meta now seems to have confirmed that Threads – its new app to compete with Twitter – will be released later this week.

On Monday, a page that lets iPhone users pre-order Threads was made available on the App Store. The same page confirms that the app will be released on July 6-7 (depending on which country the user lives in). Meta has also launched a new webpage with a countdown ahead of the release.

Meta has been working on Threads for some time now, and it became known after some reports in May about the “Barcelona” project. Developed under the Instagram brand, Threads aims to be a direct competitor to Twitter, allowing users to share text, photos, and videos.

“Threads is where communities come together to discuss everything from the topics you care about today to what’ll be trending tomorrow. Whatever it is you’re interested in, you can follow and connect directly with your favorite creators and others who love the same things — or build a loyal following of your own to share your ideas, opinions and creativity with the world,” says the app description.

Although Threads is based on Instagram, it will have its own app. Expectedly, those with an Instagram account will be able to join the new platform with just a tap. However, some details are still unclear – such as whether users will be able to access Threads through a web browser. Another detail to keep in mind is that, at least for now, the app has no iPad version.

Insidus has heard from people familiar with the matter that Meta was first planning to launch Threads at the end of July. However, as many Twitter users are upset with the platform, Meta has decided to rush the launch of its new microblogging social network.
