eReality is a South African reality television channel created and owned by eMedia Investments's e.tv for OpenView.[1] The channel broadcasts 16 hours a day showcasing a mix of local and international nostalgic reality series and shows which never before appeared on e.tv.[2]
eReality is currently the most popular reality channel in South Africa.
History[]
eMedia Investment conducted research on what viewers preferred the most on e TV and Openview. The decision was rather than aggregate reality content on the main e.tv channel there should be a new channel, which currently is exclusive to Openview.[3]
Marlon Davids, managing director for the e.tv channels, says reality shows continue to grow in popularity and is thrilled that e.tv has presented this self-packaged channel.[4]
Programmes[]
eReality's lineup feature real-life stories, fascinating characters and raw human emotion. Most notable titles include MasterChef, Family Feud, The Real Housewives, Little Women franchise, Cheaters, The Planet's Funniest Animals, Forensic Files and Paternity Court.
Since Saturday 10 July 2021, the channel will launch a local programming block called airing shows such as Deadbeats, Beef, Will You Be My Ex, Tembisa Show and Pay Back The Money. As of August 2021, some of the content became exclusively available on eVOD.[5]
