“It’s always sad when a show that was popular and loved ends, as is the case with Isibaya. However, times change and television is about adopting and adapting. As Mzansi Magic, we’re thrilled about the new partnership with Black Brain Productions. The other exciting element is that this is their first telenovela. It’s a great opportunity for Black Brain to broaden their base and creativity,”

Multi-choice shouldn’t have allowed Isibaya to end. I stopped subscribing after. Even when Isibaya had a rubbish storyline it was still watchable. https://t.co/pu5Yc7lmYe
