DRAMA SERIES
THAT ARE LIKELY TO BE ON TV THIS MONTH
THE SHANNARA
CHRONICLES
A new fantasy drama series, The Shannara Chronicles,
has just started on Viacom's MTV in the United States
but there's not yet any certainty as to when South
African and African viewers are going to see it or if it
will be on MTV (DStv 130) - although it's likely.
The Shannara Chronicles, filmed in New Zealand, is a
Lord of the Rings type fantasy story with humans, elves
and demons set in a post-apocalyptic world thousands
of years from now - a TV version of the fantasy novels
of the famed fantasy author Terry Brooks.
THE HEIST
New e.tv local drama series ALERT: THE HEISTThe Heist
was inspired by the real-life Justin Bieber concert cash
heist that happened in 2013 as e.tv says it wants to bring
'more action, edge' to the channel.
The drama its set to start on Tuesday 9 February at 21:30
and the headline of the Drama took its inspiration from
the May 2013 Justin Bieber concert cash heist when
robbers staged a daring smash and grab and stole millions
after a carefully planned break in at the FNB stadium. The
drama was filmed in Alexandra Township.
