Reminder: Action-Packed Comedy 'Hero Inside' To Unleash The Power Of Imagination On Cartoon Network Africa

What happens when comic book heroes come to life? You get the hilarious rollercoaster ride that is Hero Inside—the latest action-packed comedy series premiering on Cartoon Network Africa!

 

Picture this: Cartoonist Scott vanishes into thin air, leaving behind only a treasure trove of his hand-drawn comic books. The twist? These aren't just any comic books; they're portals to a world of uproarious heroics!

 

Enter 13-year-old daydreamer Mike and his eclectic crew of friends, who stumble upon Scott's scattered comics in the bustling city of San Francisco. The fun starts when Mike, engrossed in the pages of ‘Crying Man’, decides to shout the hero's name aloud. Lo and behold, Crying Man bursts out of the comic, and that's just the beginning of the great adventures!

 

Across the city, Scott's comic book Heroes materialises at the beck and call of their newfound owners, unleashing a whirlwind of peculiar events. From farm work to household chores and even a bit of light-hearted thievery and fisticuffs, these heroes redefine what it means to save the day.

 

Hero Inside introduces a crew of refreshingly unique, imperfect, and downright human heroes. Will you come to love these extraordinary yet flawed champions?

 

Join Mike, his sidekick Nick, crush Lucy, and comic connoisseur Dirk O as they navigate the uproar caused by these living heroes. Each episode peels back the layers of the mystery behind Scott's vanishing act and the origins of these not-so-average heroes.

 

Watch Hero Inside on Mondays to Fridays @ 17:15 CAT starting on Monday, 22 January, only on Cartoon Network Africa!

News Shorts: A Rebroadcast Of My Identity And Along Came Love Launches On Star Life And TLNovelas Respectively, Skeem Saam On SABC 1 To Take On e.tv's Scandal This March And Warner Bros. Discovery EMEA Acquired Zig & Sharko Season 4 For Cartoonito

My Identity resurfaces on Star Life

The series explores the controversial life story of a child, Avni Ayesha, born out of wedlock. She is uncomfortable bearing the illegitimate identity that society has painted on her. As a result, Avni develops a strong determination to fight back and does not stop in her adulthood.

It will return to Star Life from 30 January replacing Sacred Relationships.

TLNovelas joins the snooze train with Along Came Love

After being deported and her father died, Luciana decides to return and meet again with the only family she has left: her mother and brother. That is why she travels to the US and shows up at the vineyard where both have worked for the past years, but when she arrives there and meets David, the landowner, she also bumps into an unexpected thing: love.

It will return to TLNovelas from 26 February replacing The Stepmother. This would serve as the first rebroadcast to have aired on the channel since Head Over Heels in 2022 so the channel is now rivalling Telemundo with their repeat padded offering.

Skeem Saam changing timeslots

For years, the SABC1 audience has made a plea, requesting to change the Skeem Saam timeslot, stating that the show timeslot is too early for some as the show broadcasts during the travelling time for a lot of the viewers.

The decision to move Skeem Saam to 19:30 is in line with SABC Video Entertainment's strategy to amplify its primetime local drama offering to its viewers from 19:30 to 21:30 with SABC1s Skeem Saam, Generations: The Legacy, Uzalo and SABC2s Muvhango.

For SABC1, we see this as an opportunity to make the channel edgier and braver and adapt to the audience's needs. The world of television is an exciting platform where we should not be afraid to adapt while upholding our responsibility to shape the youth and societal roles.

Zig & Sharko returns to Cartoonito

WBD (France, Africa), DR TV (Denmark), NRK Super (Norway), Markiza (Slovakia) and ERT (Greece) have bought Zig & Sharko season four (which premiered last fall on French broadcaster Gulli) to begin airing during Q2 to Q4 of this year. And season one is going to K+ Vietnam and Media Prima Malaysia.

Zig & Sharko launched in 2010 and revolves around a hyena’s endless attempts to capture a mermaid who is under the protection of a great white shark. 

The show is performing well on Netflix, according to an engagement report released by the streamer last month. Seasons one and two of Zig & Sharko racked up 40 million hours of viewing time in the first half of 2023 on the platform.
