Love Of My Life, eExtra's First Colombian Drama Series Launches This September

For several years, Telemundo had been gracing viewer's screens with a lineup of Spanish telenovelas Latin America, Mexico and Colombia. From 1st September, eMedia Investments is set to add Colombian drama, Love Of My Life (Devuélveme La Vida) to eExtra.

Synopsis for Love Of My Life

When the father of Mariana Azcarate, the heiress of the La Victoria cotton farm, discovers that his daughter is in love with Joaquín, an Afro day laborer, he opposes it, and makes the decision to get rid of him and the baby that is on the way. However, Joaquín survives the assassination attempt and flees to save his life. Years later, Mariana will discover that she was deceived, and that Joel, her son presumed dead in childbirth, was stolen at birth. He falls in love with Sara, Mariana's adopted daughter and new heir to the hacienda, while Joaquín, who managed to survive, has returned to exact revenge on the Azcarate family.

It starred Paula Castaño as Mariana Azcárate, Jair Romero as Joaquín Mosquera, Jairo Camargo as Alfredo Azcárate, Jefferson Quiñones as Graciliano Mosquera and Luis Gerónimo Abreu as Rogelio Benítez.

The series premiered from 16 April 2024 and concluded on 15 July 2024 after 60 episodes on Caracol Television. The broadcaster has distributed a number of shows in South Africa including Ana's Revenge (Telemundo), The Girl (Soweto TV) and Living To Love (ST Novelas).

In other developments, a rebroadcast of Impak is expected to replace Doodloopstraat once it ends on September 10 at 22:00. Meanwhile, Love Of My Life replaces the Bollywood drama Ajooni in its 14:25 timeslot from September 1st probably in an attempt to not clash with e.tv's Uzozisola - Regrets.

Cartoon Network Africa Has Been Acknowledging It's Older Library Of Content

It appears that Cartoon Network in Africa has been following a trend seen in the United States and some parts of the world where various old content has suddenly now resurfaced on the channel. First there was Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated followed by Batman: The Brave And The Bold.

To some viewer's surprise, the channel aired The Powerpuff Girls: The Movie something which dates back to the early 2000s. A timeline Warner Bros. Discovery had been very distant toward I mean most of the content they have in development are based on IPs from 2010.

These include Steven Universe: Lars Of The Stars, A Regular Show revival series and The Wonderfully Weird Of Gumball. Only one of the three will be added to Cartoon Network while the latter could be made exclusive to streaming.

If you are a viewer like myself you're probably even wondering why after 8-10+ years this channel had started allocating this content. My presumed guess would have to do with the merger of WarnerMedia and Discovery to form Warner Bros. Discovery, which again is set to split.

During this merger period, Warner Bros. Discovery cancelled several projects some of which had fully been developed such as Scoob! A Holiday Haunt and Batgirl. As for Cartoon Network, reports had surfaced that a Megas XLR revival was in development but due to this merger it got killed off.

Warner Bros. Discovery has been floating in debt worth almost $40 billion and according to some insiders the company stopped commissioning for Cartoon Network and are leveraging of IPs instead. They can't risk losing more money so they'd rather do more sequel series for Adventure Time to make money.

The Wonderfully Weird World Of Gumball which is expected to debut on Cartoon Network in October, has been added to Hulu in the US. Steven Universe: Lars Of The Stars is in development for Prime Video so don't be surprised if that never sees the light of day on Cartoon Network.

Some can argue that Warner Bros. has got plenty of content from these companies very much like NBCUniversal has with DreamWorks Animation. But in reality, a majority of these shows reside outside of Cartoon Network's current demographic being 6-12 year olds.

In the US, consumers have a shot in viewing this content through the channel's adult block in other countries offering such content on Cartoon Network would be a punishable offence. This would leave Cartoon Network in other countries with old content.
