eExtra the South African digital satellite television channel supplied by eMedia Investments on their Openview platform as well as MultiChoice's DStv and On Digital Media (ODM) Starsat switches back to 24 hour channel from April. The reason for the switch has to do with the shutdown of the unsuccessful female based channel eBella. Several if not most of eBella shows will be transmitted on eExtra in April as a "weekday guilty pleasure afternoon block" on the channel. eExtra hasn't been schedule wise for sometime now which has built a major impact on the brand. You'll find some new content on this channel get the late night treatment similar to what Turner U.S. and International does with Cartoon Network and Boomerang where 2-3 shows get attention while others which are on an indefinite hiatus for some reason get the death treatment by being put weekday mornings or nights with no repeats most of the time and if there was they'd put it at a time les

As the name is suggests FlavourTV is some of food/cooking channel meaning it could be South Africa's first ever food/cooking channel. Not much details is given about the channel except that it was made in South Africa. There's no telling if this is true or just a sham to get the media's attention. As Yatish Bipulprasad stated the channel will launch on DStv with a new show starring him and the Mayor of Durban Hot Sauce (lol). So basically this channel will be a rival to Discovery Inc's Food Network and BBC Studios' BBC Lifestyle. There's no telling how good the channel might be that is if its real. It was possibly commissioned by DStv as the pay-tv service is open for channel proposals (even tv shows) you've had successful ones like Moja Love (female base), TV Mall (Business, not sure for viewership) then you have non-performing channels like Voov (who watched it better yet who was it for exactly) and ANN7 (the Gupta owned channel was unorgan

The Canadian LGBT+ network OUTtv commissioned a bran new show titled "Fak Yaass" which is slated for an early 2019 release.  Fak Yaass is a series that tells the 'true' story of Nico Nicolakis' big Greek family and their journey of accepting Nico no matter his sexuality. Showing the clash between old tradition and the new age, millennial Nico struggles with the idea of returning home, somewhere he's always felt judged and unworthy. With the help of his friends, Anton and Jill, we'll watch as Nico's heart begins to let his family in and we'll see his family accept him for who he is, until a secret family scheme may ruin that forever. According to one of the crew members which has yet to be confirmed the series will air in South Africa along with Canada, New Zealand and Australia.(pictured below) Not only that the channel teased its return with more bold, diverse and LOCAL shows a few days after the channel closed.(pictured bel

Thanks to MultiChoice Kenya we finally know that PBS Kids will be a permanent addition to the DStv Platform. MultiChoice added kids content from America's PBS Kids to its DStv Catch Up service as part of the pay-TV operator's DStv Now streaming service and stated it might be used elsewhere if there's a demand for it. There's no response as yet from MultiChoice on when PBS Kids will be added. The channel will be available to all DStv subscribers as stated by MultiChoice Kenya. In South Africa, the channel is accessible from Easyview (cheapest package only found in South Africa). PBS Kids is the children's programming brand of America's Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) that is broadcast as a kids programming block on PBS in the United States, but it is also a digital video channel streaming kids content as part of a video app that PBS launched in January 2017. The content which is seen on the channel is currently available on DStv's

Today we go back to Steve Hullet’s blog he answered some question mostly all of them where CN related but somebody mentioned if Disney XD is having a future project or if Disney XD will rebrand in Marvel HQ due the lack of original content Steve Hullet says that the status of the channel is quo. When I talked to Marvel a couple weeks back, they weren’t doing Marvel HQ in Glendale. Not sure where it’s being done. My assumption is that, at some point it will be streamed. (Prediction: eventually, most channels and most product will be streamed.) But until Diz Co. makes an announcement about Disney XD'x fate, its status can be considered quo. At the moment Steve mentioned that 3 Spiderman specials are on the works (unsure if it will be for XD) and that future Marvel projects will go to Disney Channel (Marvel Rising) or Hulu (those 4 adult Marvel animated shows) and that Avengers Assemble is wrapping up production.

South African TV viewers will finally get more choice and the country's lethargic free-to-air TV industry massive new competition and content for the first time in 21 years, with South Africa's broadcasting regulator that approved a TV licence for Kwesé Free TV to start 5 freely-available TV channels. Kwesé Free TV will bring much-needed competition and a new TV destination option besides the SABC and e.tv, after the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa (Icasa) decided to grant it a licence. This is the first new, individual, commercial free-to-air TV licence awarded since e.tv launched in 1998. As a new digital terrestrial television (DTT) commercial TV station, Kwesé Free TV was granted capacity to start one high definition (HD) TV channel and another 4 standard definition channels as part of a "multi-channel" service, somewhat similar to what eMedia Investments is doing with its Openview service. Kwesé Free TV plans to launch a
