The Candidate Has Been Delayed Indefinitely On FOX Life

The Candidate which was suppose to take up Secrets at the Hotel's timeslot has been delayed indefinitely. Instead viewers will be getting double bill of Along Came Love.

The reason for the delay is uncertain as the channel hasn't responded to any question regarding the status of the show. My theory would have to be that the show didn't arrive as yet and with the pandemic around these type of situations are likely to happen.

Telemundo did fall victim to such situation as they were originally going to air the final season of Lord of the Skies back in June until it got pushed to September. Even Star Life was set to air My Identity and The Evil Eye till they both got delayed due to coronavirus.

One things for certain, when Along Came Love ends on the channel another show which is not The Candidate is likely take it's place. This delay is bad especially for a retarded channel like FOX Life which has its history with repeats.

2020 has proven to be a challenging year for cable with all these delays and temporary shutdown of content how can businesses manage to keep viewers occupied for this long.

Yu-Gi-Oh 5d Coming Soon To SABC 2

SABC 2, the only channel from SABC airing anime at the moment is introducing a new anime called Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's from the popular franchise Yu-Gi-Oh.

The show is set in the distant future, where the upper class population live in Neo Domino City (New Domino City in the English version) and the lower class in a remote island where Domino's sewage is transported, Satellite. Yusei Fudo, the 18-year-old protagonist, lives in Satellite and makes it his objective to reach his rival Jack Atlas, who lives in Neo Domino. The series focuses on the five Signers, people embodied with a mark of one of the legendary Five Dragons who serve an ancient deity called the Crimson Dragon, their conflict with the Dark Signers, and the Three Emperors of Iliaster.

The characters will be playing a card game called Duel Monsters. This series introduces Synchro Monsters to the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game. A new method of dueling exists where motorcycle-like vehicles called Duel Runners are used, and the duelists engage in games called Turbo Duels.

The series is the second main spinoff from the Yu-Gi-Oh franchise which aired in Japan from April 2, 2008 to March 30, 2011 and made its way to other international markets.

The show airs at 17:00 from 2nd September on SABC 2

TNT Africa Ratings Sore In June Despite Downward Trend In The Movie Market

Despite an 11% decline in June’s movie market ratings, TNT, the home of Hollywood blockbusters, ranked #1 ahead of all movie channels in South Africa. Regardless of the overall decreasing trend, TNT saw a notable 22% increase in viewership during weekend daytime programming driven by the two best-performing movies on the channel for the month, Karate Kid and 3 Ninjas.

TNT dominated the Top 50 competitive movies in June, securing 15 titles in the Top 50 with films such as Panic Room, Anaconda and The Mask. The channel also garnered historical viewership numbers in May for the premiere of Apocalypto, directed by Mel Gibson, reaching 1 million viewers.

TNT recently launched its long-form slate of TNT Original Movies, which kicked off with Escape from Pretoria on the 4th of July during prime time. The movie, starring Daniel Radcliffe, gathered close to 389 000 viewers, a 75% increase on the same timeslot month on month, and ranked #1 competitively during the airing. The TNT Original Movie content, representing a wide range of mainstream entertainment genres, featuring renowned international casts, offers a brand-new, exclusive original movie premiere the first Saturday of every month.

Historically a male-skewed channel, TNT has seen a growing appeal to women with 51% tuning in versus 49% of male viewers and strong appeal amongst the 15 to 49-year-old segment (which accounts for 60% of the total audience). 

In September, TNT will unleash an action-driven, pulse-raising slate, specially tailored for African fans, with blockbusters such as The Transporter (1 & 2), a whole stunt dedicated to the best titles of Denzel Washington (Remember the Titans, Déjà vu, Fallen) and thrilling action movie premieres such as I, Robot; and Hitman: Agent 47.

BBC First Gets The Boot On DStv

MultiChoice has announced that it will discontinue its BBC First channel on DStv, effective from 1 September.

The company said that this change is part of a “refresh of its British entertainment lineup”, with a selection of the British drama continuing on BBC Brit.

“Customers can continue to enjoy an increased range of British content on DStv’s suite of popular BBC channels as well as on M-Net, Catch Up, and Showmax,” the company said.
British shows that will continue include The Chase S13, Love Island UK S6, Britain’s Got Talent S14, The Bay S1, and The Capture.

“We are putting compelling drama and variety in one place and on one BBC channel and have increased acquisition of British content by adding titles to M-Net,” said MultiChoice Group CEO Yolisa Phahle.

“This will reduce the repeats on M-Net and strengthen our daytime schedule.”
In addition to this channel cut, MultiChoice also announced that M-Net’s first daily drama in more than 10 years – Legacy – would be screened from the end of September.

The new 13-part female-driven M-Net drama Inconceivable also launches in September, MultiChoice said.

“We would like to thank viewers for their support of BBC First over the past five years,” said BBC Studios EMEA executive vice president Nick Percy.

“BBC Brit will continue to offer some drama series as part of its schedule, and we will be looking for new opportunities that will allow us to continue to bring drama fans the full range of quality productions coming out of the UK.”

“We have operated BBC branded channels on the DStv platform for over 20 years and remain committed to bringing our viewers the very best programming from the BBC and leading UK production houses,” Percy said.
MultiChoice said it remains committed to maintaining its long-standing relationship with the BBC and will continue work with the broadcaster to ensure the best British entertainment for its customers.
