The I-Land

Channel: Netflix South Africa
TX Time: 10h00 (all episodes)
Genre: Sci-Fi, Thriller, Mystery

The I-Land

Wiped clean of memories and thrown together, a group of strangers fight to survive harsh realities - and the island that traps them.

Kate Bosworth and Alex Pettyfer star in this sci-fi adventure from Van Helsing series creator Neil LaBute.

When 10 people wake up on a treacherous island with no memory of who they are or how they got there, they set off on a trek to try to get back home.

They soon discover this world is not as it seems.

Faced with the I-Land's extreme psychological and physical challenges, they must rise to their better selves - or die as their worst ones.
 

Impact of Murder

Channel: IDx (DStv 171 / StarSat 223)
TX Time: 21h00
Genre: True Crime, Docu-Drama

Impact of Murder

Murder doesn't end with a killing; the devastation stretches far beyond, wreaking havoc in the lives of those left behind.

This series explores the extent of the horror through emotional victim impact statements by the witnesses and the families of victims, delivered to the killers in court.

It's an emotional rollercoaster through the increasingly harrowing details of the crime itself, to the immediate impact as loved-ones struggle to comprehend their loss.

Through a victim's own words, this series offers a unique and poignant perspective on the collateral damage of murder.

But, it also shows how impact statements themselves act as a source of strength and empowerment when they stand up in court to address the killer who shattered their lives.

In the series premiere, "My Lacie": Charisse Christopher escapes her abusive husband and sets up a new, safe home with her three-year-old son Nicholas and her baby Lacie.

Several months later, the police discover a scene of slaughter which isn't quite what it seems.

In the second episode of the weekly double bill, "Hearts on Fire": Billy Frietag is a free-spirited young man who spends the warmer months working the family farm, and travels when it's cold.

Tragically, it's his openness and generosity that lead to strange set of events which culminate in his death.
 

Bridezillas 12

Channel: Lifetime (DStv 131)
TX Time: 20h05
Genre: Reality

Bridezillas 12

Bridezillas celebrates the most out-of-control, screaming, yelling, crazy brides as they terrorise their way through the week leading up to their wedding.

Each episode follows two hilariously unhinged brides, as they hurtle toward the altar.

First, we are introduced to the brides and their beloveds, learn their backgrounds and relationship histories, and find out how the wedding has taken over their lives.

As we move closer to the brides' big days, we weave through disastrous dress fittings, cake tastings, bridal showers, bachelorette parties and rehearsal dinners.

Tempers and tensions are running high, and monumental meltdowns are inevitable.

In the Season 12 premiere, "HangryZilla & CelebZilla": CelebZilla Shannon's celebrity wedding may be a fail when the bridesmaid dresses cause her to have a major meltdown.

Meanwhile, HangryZilla Jasyln loses it at her wild bachelorette party when the stripper, Lethal, hooks up with a bridesmaid.

That picture for The I-Land is harrowing... it's the concept of needing Help that's freaking me.

How many people have called for help through the ages and never been heard?
