eReality is currently the most popular reality channel in South Africa.

History

eMedia Investment researched what viewers preferred the most on e.tv and Openview. The decision was rather than aggregate reality content on the main e.tv channel there should be a new channel, which currently is exclusive to Openview.[3]

Marlon Davids, managing director for the e.tv channels, says reality shows continue to grow in popularity and is thrilled that e.tv has presented this self-packaged channel.[4]
