You can stop writing your goodbye posts to Discovery Channel. MultiChoice Zimbabwe just locked down a new deal with Warner Bros. Discovery, keeping all twelve WBD channels on DStv past the December 31st deadline. Viewers will continue getting networks like Discovery Channel, TLC, Food Network, CNN International, and Cartoon Network, ending weeks of panic over a potential blackout.
The agreement came together at the last possible minute through parent company Canal Plus, securing a multi-year contract that covers several regions. This reversal follows stalled negotiations that had customers flooding social media with cancellation threats, especially after the confirmed loss of other channels like BET Africa and MTV Base. MultiChoice stated the deal reaffirms their commitment to a diverse lineup, promising new channel additions early next year while delivering entertainment at what they call the best possible price.
