Prediction: Linear Channels Switch To 7 Day Viewing


This format has adapted mainly with telenovela/soapies and kids channels such as Telemundo, Zee World, Star Life, Novela Magic, Toonami and JimJam where a program airs new episodes every single day including weekends.

Now imagine if this format where to take a toll on all linear channels. Not only would it reduce repeats but it would mean viewers would get more fresh content within a year.

Streaming services such as Netflix dump full seasons of programs on their platform in a single day. Perhaps streaming is the main factor to this viewing.

Remember the days when you had to watch programs at a particular time and sometimes you miss out now you have options to record and watch later.

This brings us back to the 7 day viewing, as much as it may be a hassle to catch-up on so many shows in so little time, viewers actually got what they wanted which is reduction in repetition.

Repetition will never be cancelled I mean you're still charged if you watch the same program on Netflix.

Let's take a premium channel like M-Net for starters where their viewers aren't kids that can tolerate repeats more than adults and aren't hubs dedicated only to soapies.

When a show ends completely on M-Net, they barely rehash past seasons and hardly bring back old shows.

This format on M-Net would mean viewers would continue to get new shows perhaps even adapt to a different offering while as feeling nostalgic even if that means welcoming old programs from the early 2000s.

7 day viewing has its benefits but if I had to look from another angle it could lead to a reduction in channels since you'd be bringing more content which means more money goes in so if M-Net where to adapt to that you'd need to wonder how long it will be till a channel like M-Net City would cease to exist.

Not implying that it would be those channels perhaps even channels from ViacomCBS, Discovery Inc and AMC International would be up for discussion.

Not everything would be 7 day viewing if you look at the title of this article I never put "all" to linear implying that certain channels due to their position or offering would be excluded from this format.

The Ellen DeGeneres Show Seen On VUZU Will Be Ending After It's Upcoming 19th Season In 2022


Ellen DeGeneres is ending her Emmy awarded and once popular talk talk show currently seen on VUZU after it's 19th season later in 2022.

The decision came amid slumping ratings following allegations by former and current staffers that The Ellen DeGeneres Show has been a toxic place to work.

On Wednesday, she insisted her decision to bring the curtain down on her afternoon talk show had nothing to do with allegations in the past year of a workplace environment rife with bullying, racial discrimination and sexual harassment.

“When you’re a creative person, you constantly need to be challenged. And as great as this show is, and as fun as it is, it’s just not a challenge anymore,”
DeGeneres said in an interview.

With this in mind, M-Net will have to find another program to occupy Ellen's timeslot on VUZU later in 2022. It wouldn't be shocking if The Kelly Clarkson Show took over full-time like it did sometime in 2020.

Reminder: Judge Judy Seen On e.tv And CBS Reality Is Ending After 21 Seasons


Judy Sheindlin is ending her iconic daytime courtroom show Judge Judy after 25 seasons but is prepping a new show, Judy Justice that will debut after her current one ends.

Speaking to Ellen DeGeneres during an interview on Ellen last year with a preview that has been released, Judy said revealed that her show, with season 18 seen in South Africa on e.tv at the time now it's season 19 and season 16 on CBS Reality (DStv 132) is ending in mid-2021 (June) but that she's working on a new one that will start later this year called Judy Justice on IDMB TV in the United States.

"I've had a 25-year-long marriage with CBS Television Distribution and it's been successful.

Judge Judy started in 1996 in the United States where it's the number one first-run programme in daytime syndication. It won Daytime Emmy Awards for best legal or courtroom show in 2013, 2016 and 2017.

Judy sold her show's library to CBS in 2017 which also saw the show renewed until its 25th season which will now be the last.

Looking to capitalize on the enormous appetite for Spanish-language programming, Telemundo is opening a new studio dedicated to producing content for streaming platforms.

Telemundo Streaming Studios, based in Miami, launched Wednesday with 35 projects in development, including “Armas de Mujer,” a remake of “El Diario de un Gigolo” and the fourth and fifth seasons of “El Marginal,” which has been popular on Netflix.

The company said the venture is the first major Spanish-language production house that will create shows specifically for streaming services.

The initiative comes as U.S. media giants, including Telemundo’s parent company, NBCUniversal, are looking to bolster their offerings in a more competitive Spanish-language video market — one that demands higher production values than were the norm for the telenovelas that have run on TV.

The studio will be part of the existing Telemundo Global Studios, which is led by Marcos Santana.

The veteran programmer will continue to oversee original scripted programs for the Telemundo TV network and international co-productions but the company is expected to bring in additional staff to handle the streaming productions.

The new venture is a response to the growing demand for streaming content, said Beau Ferrari, chairman of NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises.

“We are the No. 1 Spanish-language content producers in the U.S.,” Ferrari said in an interview. “And we, at Telemundo, have been providing content for the streamers for a decade now. We’ve been looking at what content was working for the streamers, and we wanted to take advantage of the traction that we already have.”

For example, Telemundo produced “Jenni Rivera: Mariposa de Barrio,” about the life of the beloved Mexican banda singer, a native of Long Beach who died in a 2012 plane crash. It became one of Netflix’s most popular shows.

Telemundo also produced “El Marginal,” for Netflix, a series about an ex-cop who is sent to infiltrate a prison to investigate a kidnapping while shielding his true identity.

Since 2011, Telemundo has produced more than 10,000 hours of programming for Netflix, Hulu, HBO and Movistar and other streaming outlets.

Spanish-language broadcasters have seen audiences wane for the traditional telenovelas, which are shot within three walls in studio soundstages and revolve around love stories.

Younger Latinos are accustomed to the higher production values and grittier story lines of the shows they watch on Netflix. The streaming shows are more expensive productions, requiring bigger stars and more locations.

The new venture comes one year after NBCUniversal launched its own streaming service, Peacock. The broadcast giant, owned by Philadelphia cable company Comcast, has found Spanish-language programming to be a major draw on its streaming platform. Part of the mandate for the new studio is to help feed Peacock, to make that service more appealing to Spanish-speaking Latinos.

“We are looking to ramp up Peacock — and Peacock Latino,” Ferrari said.

In the last year, Telemundo has produced 3,000 hours of programming for Peacock Latino.

Nearly $1 billion is spent annually on Spanish-language content for streaming services, according to industry estimates. Netflix alone is expected to spend about half that amount. WarnerMedia’s HBO Max and Amazon Prime also have been increasing their spending, as has NBCUniversal to bolster Peacock.

Ferrari pointed to research that shows Latinos are among the largest consumers of streaming content.

In addition to producing its shows for Peacock, Netflix and others, Telemundo will carve out a side business by offering production services to third-party creators who are looking for studio space and the expertise of studio executives who are based in Miami.

The Spanish-language market is becoming more competitive. Last month, Telemundo’s arch rival, Univision Communications, announced that it would merge with the entertainment assets of one of the world’s largest creators of Spanish-language programming, Grupo Televisa of Mexico City.

Search-engine behemoth Google is one of the investors in the soon-to-be merged entity. Univision already has been moving aggressively into the streaming space with the March launch of its own Spanish-language streaming service called PrendeTV.

Last month, ViacomCBS — which recently launched the Paramount+ streaming service — said it would buy WarnerMedia’s Chilevisión, including its Spanish-language production facilities and content library.

“Telemundo is doing something where they have production capacity and real estate,” said Julio Rumbaut, a Spanish-language media consultant, based in Miami. “The content world is changing so fast, including the Spanish-language content, so this may be a way for them to prepare to enter the streaming market in a compelling manner.”

SABC Children: Another Dream Journal For The SABC


Creators of top children's entertainment for SABC's TV channels, SABC Children was another one of SABC's upcoming channels for DTT back in 2012 which never came to be.

In 2015, SABC partnered up with Tuluntulu launched an online version of the brand from there viewers got to see what the channel was actually about and what it would offer.

SABC Children would have been multilingual like Kenya's Akilli Kids and cater towards children aged 2-12 offering a mix of local and international content making it one of the few SABC channels to offer foreign programming.

The programming would serve to entertain viewers but as mentioned earlier it would be available in different languages other than English. The schedule featured a large amount of local productions including The Magic Cellar, Roughing It Out, Challenge SOS, My Night and several YoTV productions.

Since this channel never came to be on DTT, SABC Education is currently distributing the local side of SABC Children knowing them they won't add the full catalogue only ones that hold educational value.

SABC Children joins the large list of dreams SABC had for DTT over the decade including SABC 4 and SABC 5, SABC Movies, 5 language based channels, parliamentary, health, music, history, SMME and interactive channel.

SABC launched their sport channel on OpenView with two additional channels set to follow in the coming months.
