Image
Covid-19 has affected tv channels as you already know Star Life was airing only repeats during the month of April due to the lockdown that occurred in South Africa and India with most of their plans put in jeopardy. Since April, the channel has only been filled with repeats of Chasing My Heart , Forever Yours and The Crossroads . The channel recieved major backlash from fans and forced others to temporarily distance themselves from the channel. Before the lockdown was implemented, Star Life was set to introduce two new Hindi telenovelas which were Nazaar and Naamkarann to the channel. Nazaar (The Evil Eye) follows the life of an evil Daayan, who worship the mother goddesses Kali and Durga. But as a devil, she was cursed by gods and captured into the human world. Jatinder Bhardwaj and Ankur Nayyar take up the lead role with Monalisa set to follow.

ViacomCBS Media Networks Africa Discreet Deal With MultiChoice: Could MultiChoice Be Looking Into Adding Paramount Network In Place Of Another Channel On DStv?

Image
In December of last year, MultiChoice renewed the distribution deal between Viacom International Media Networks which is now known as ViacomCBS Media Networks which will see continuation of all their channels carried on the platform including Nickelodeon, BET, MTV, MTV Base and Comedy Central. The thing both parties left out in this extended agreement was the duration of the deal. Which led me to believe that MultiChoice or ViacomCBS is more likely looking into canning some of the channels later this year or early in 2021. The likely candidates could be MTV and Comedy Central. Since Viacom and CBS merged early last year a lot of reconstructing has been underway which included having two managers handle seperate parts of these brands alongside aligning the channels such as CBS Reality and Justice from CBS side with MTV, BET, Comedy Central and Nickelodeon from Viacom. CBS Reality and Justice are crafted through a partnership and listed under ViacomCBS Media Networks and AMC Inter

New Channel Alert: SABC Education Coming Soon To DStv And StarSat

Image
As you all know SABC Encore is getting canned on DStv and SABC told a user through a media enquiry that MultiChoice had already planned to can the channel in 2018 and knew of its demise long before the public. Now another SABC channel is expected to be added on DStv really soon which will also be available on StarSat. SABC Education, as most already know launched earlier this month . At the time viewers could only recieve the channel through DTT and online platforms and through an interview at Expresso on SABC 3 with the general manager at SABC he mentioned that they were in negotiations with pay platforms so that they can hopefully carry the channel. Now it looks like DStv will be one of those pay platforms to carry the channel alongside StarSat. So far no release date has been issued yet on both sides but StarSat will add it on channel 313 my guess would be from 1st June around the time SABC Encore gets terminated and channel 316 could be it's channel number for DStv
