Turner Africa builds reach and ratings

January 16, 2019 11.23 Europe/London By Julian Clover

Turner Africa says its kids multiplex and general entertainment channel TNT have between them achieved greater reach and rating results than ever before.

In November, Turner Kids celebrated 51 consecutive months as the most popular pay-TV multiplex in South Africa, while Cartoon Network celebrated its highest-ever monthly share, and remained the No.1 pay-TV Kids channel among kids aged four to 14-years-old.

Cartoon Network also remains the favourite kids’ TV channel in South Africa, dominating the Top 15 places in the chart of the best performing shows.

Original Cartoon Network productions and Warner Bros content represented 77% of the most viewed content on the channel.

Meanwhile, TNT benefitted from its September rebranding with its highest-ever ratings performance. In November, TNT Africa broke a new record with 40,700 viewers tuning in (a 13% increase month-on-month) and achieved its second highest performance in share since December 2016.

In November TNT achieved movies on the Top 10 list including the top three placings.
