tvN's Parent Company CJ ENM Joins The Anime Business As They Partner Up With Toei Animation

Korean entertainment powerhouse CJ ENM has entered into a strategic partnership with leading Japanese animation studio Toei Animation as it continues to expand its global footprint. Under the agreement, the two companies will collaborate across both their libraries and team to create new product including television series, films and animation. The tie-up will also allow both to tap each other’s regional markets.

CJ ENM is is Korea’s foremost film and television studio, cable operator and music producer.

Series credits range from Crash Landing On You to Goblin: The Lonely And Great God and Hospital Playlist while it is also behind music format I Can See Your Voice; stage credits include the Tony Award winning Broadway production Kinky Boots.

We are also excited to see how CJ ENM’s original content that expands over 5,000 different IPs will be able open new doors of creative possibilities for Toei Animation,” said Jongmin Yi, Senior Vice President of CJ ENM’s Content R&D Center. “Through this strategic partnership, we plan to develop never-seen-before transmedia contents in both Korea and Japan.”

Could A Big Brother Africa Revival Be In The Works As More African Markets Start Working On A Local Adaptation Of The Popular Game Show?

Big Brother Africa originally began in 2003 on M-Net featuring contestants from across Africa living in an isolated household to compete for a cash prize. The show was cancelled after one season and picked once again in 2007 before getting cancelled after seven seasons in 2014.

Even though, the popular game show was canned the legacy lived on as Big Brother Naija for the past 5 years as they've been the forefront entertainers not only for Nigeria but the rest of Africa.

Not long ago, Liberia announced plans to launch a localised version of the game show titled Housemates Liberia through AYVTV. With plans to have this game show available in more markets just like Big Brother Naija.

With that in mind, its possible that MultiChoice might be planning to seperate versions of Big Brother Africa just the other day viewers have come across an advert for Big Brother Mzansi which is slated for South Africa in 2022.

The question remains on what affect it will inflict on Big Brother Naija. Considering that there's more than two perhaps MultiChoice in some regions will cut ties with the Nigerian counterpart to divert their focus their own version or offer Big Brother Naija on a limited basis.

Either way, it wouldn't surprise me if MultiChoice were to launch a dedicated channel for this game show titled Big Brother Africa for future as well as past seasons of the game show.

MORE ZEE WORLD REPEATS??? As eExtra Adds The Heir And Surrender In Love To Their Lineup Within The Next Two Months

Amidst the scandal between eMedia Investments and Nismedia regarding the carriage for Glow TV. eMedia apparently bagged the rights to Surrender In Love and The Heir from Nismedia's enemies, Zee Enterprises.

This isn't the first time, even shows ranging from Qubool Hai, Dare To Love, Piya Albela and Bin Kuch Kahe all part of Zee Enterprises aired on eMedia set of channels.

Nismedia's ongoing feud with Zee Enterprises began in 2018 when MultiChoice abruptly scrapped Glow TV from DStv. Now the Zee supremacy surfaces once again on eExtra.

Surrender In Love (Qurbaan Hua), a story of two individuals who belong to different cultures Hindu and Muslim respectively. This story revolves around love - hate concept where the male protagonist Neel, belong to Hindu family who wanted revenge for his beloved sister murdered and by his conceptual the murderer is Chahat's father. Chahat, the female protagonist belong to a Muslim family. Neel and Chahat both determined by their own statement to prove that their opinion is true and this ties them to stay in one roof by faking their marriage.

The Heir (Waaris), with her husband's death in order to keep the title of "Shah" with in family Amba raises her daughter Manpreet (Mannu) as a boy making him the heir (Waaris) of the family as well as Shah of the Pawania Clan.

The only thing that tares it apart from Zee World would be the dubbed audio and the fact that viewers on eExtra will be viewing uncensored version from Zee TV.

eMedia Investments hasn't provided an exact date for these shows but seeing that the conclusion of Dare To Love alongside the first season of Till The End Of Time airs November 3rd and 30th respectively. These shows will likely occupy their timeslots.

Ahead Of Its Launch On DStv, Housemates Liberia Is The New Name For Liberia's Big Brother

Monrovia — The CEO of the Big Brother Liberia franchise, Amb. Karishma Pelham-Raad has announced the change of the reality show name from 'Big Brother Liberia' to 'Housemates Liberia'.

Making the announcement during a major press conference in Monrovia on Friday, Amb. Pelham-Raad said, with the new name, she and her team will take full ownership of the reality show and ensure it portrays the unique culture and positive image of Liberia.

"The show will be titled 'Housemates Liberia.' It offers Liberian companies and businesses the opportunities of great value for money sponsorship and advertisements to reach out with their goods and services to existing and new customers across all counties of the country and outside Liberia," Amb. Karishma said.

She continued: "With the new name, we own our show. Big Brother is statistic; they control you and you have to do what they want. And this is not what we want. As a CEO, I want to do things based on my ideas, things that will showcase Liberia and bring its culture out to the world.

"I believe we have a unique culture; the way we talk, the food we eat and our entire way of life- all is unique. That's why going with Housemates is more beneficial for us now than going with the big brother brand."

The announcement follows a 'successful' business trip by Hon. Karishma and the Housemates Liberia media partner, KMTV CEO Randall Jackson to Sierra Leone where they brokered a deal with their Sierra Leonean counterpart, the African Young Voices (AYV) to air Housemates Liberia live on DSTV channel 399.

Hon. Pelham-Raad hailed the agreement with AYV and said the broadcast will positively project Liberia to Africa and bring many benefits of tourism, entertainment and business to the country.

"Very importantly, DSTV Channel 399 is available in all the 15 counties in Liberia. The Liberian people, culture and all the counties will have significant inputs into the reality show," she said.

The show will be titled 'Housemates Liberia.' It offers Liberian companies and businesses the opportunities of great value for money sponsorship and advertisements to reach out with their goods and services to existing and new customers across all counties of the country and outside Liberia. In the coming days and weeks, we shall provide you with more details about the upcoming reality show 'Housemates Liberia."

Speaking further, she revealed that the recruitment process for the maiden edition of Housemates Liberia will be announced soon.

"We want to bring something to the Liberian people that they will be proud of. For the recruitment process, we will make the announcement when we ae ready to give the forms out. In the form, we will outline all of the criteria."

She then made a passionate appeal to the public and all Liberians to work with her and the team to make the show a success. "This is about the Liberian people. I am just an ordinary driver who is blessed to be the gateway to push this Liberian entertainment show to the world," she said.

According to several adverts, the show will be aired on DStv channel 399 and made available within 52 African markets. As mentioned earlier, DStv channel 399 is only viewable in Liberia so it's possible that the channel will be available in more markets as Liberia gears up for the launch of Housemates Liberia.

REAL HEALTH
Holistic health experts and professionals join Real Health host, Michael Porter, to discuss every-day health conditions. They explore causes, symptoms and holistic ways of treating these issues and how these solutions, when practiced correctly, can lead to a healthier mind, body and soul.

They inform the viewer of the roles played by diet, exercise, and lifestyle choices on their overall well-being, and the viewer in turn learns about the diverse approaches to health that suit different lifestyles, personalities and beliefs.

Whether it’s conventional Western medical solutions or Eastern disciplines that have been practiced for thousands of years, modern nutritional viewpoints or age old remedies, each episode of Real Health aims to inspire, transform and enlighten.
