DStv Stream and Showmax offers peak content and convenience for the modern-day woman
They’re the epitome of effortless chic. They’re the ones driving a sleek SUV, carrying a delectable designer handbag, and maintaining a demeanour that screams confidence. Prim, proper and the picture of ‘Girl Boss.’ They easily look like they have it all together, but beyond the polished exterior lies a world of contradictions, aspirations, and a love for the things that bring any woman joy. The Corporate Queen; the diverse, multi-faceted woman who leads at the office and at home, but also revels in the joys of the little things.
Often mistaken for mere socialites, these women are more than what meets the eye. They juggle demanding careers, family life, and a relentless pursuit of self-improvement. By day, they’re the corporate powerhouses, closing deals and climbing the corporate ladder. By evening, they transform into domestic goddesses, orchestrating dinner parties and ensuring their homes are Instagram-worthy; whilst still being the ones to be the perfect Saturday-night-out life of the party!
Romanticizing their lives is key to their existence. They’re the ones you see sipping chai lattes at upscale cafes around hidden nooks of Gabs, with Instagram feeds decorated with a curated collection of designer fashion and luxury travel. Behind closed doors, though, they’re all just craving relaxation and escapism, in the most convenient ways with plenty of variety and choice.
When the day ends, and the house is quiet with “alone time” on the horizon, what does this woman who has it all watch? Filled with options galore and convenience, DStv Stream and Showmax are the perfect accessories for this Corporate Queen who wants to end her hectic day with just the right content streamed with ease.
In honour of celebrating the Queens that run our offices, our homes and the world-at-large, we’re sharing our favourite picks to help keep our powerhouses, entertained, relaxed and satisfied on their downtime.
The Best of the Binge
Nothing goes better with the occasional glass of red wine than binge-watching guilty-pleasure reality series such as Married at First Sight-Mzansi on Mzansi Magic (Channel 161) or The Mommy Club: Sugar and Spice on Showmax. For the woman who wants the intrigue and slow-suspense of drama series, M-Net (Channel 102) has you sorted with the likes of House of Gods and Allegiance. Or if you’re a sucker for nostalgia and want to reminisce on the coming-of-age classics that shaped your yesteryear, Showmax is the place to be with HBO’s Just Like That, and hit classic Sex and the City series, which follows the topsy-turvy love lives of four 30something year olds in New York City circa the late 90s. Whatever it is, the multitude of options available are the perfect ending to a day spent being in charge and making the tough decisions at work.
With the Explora decoder, DStv’s PVR decoder which allows you to pause live TV, record, rewind and store your favourites for future viewing, DStv Catch Up allows you to schedule your viewing in the same way you schedule those hectic meetings in your workday. With the Explora your weekends are handled. Allow yourself to catch up on Mzansi Magic’s gripping series, Queen Modjadji or allow your kids to take over by letting them safely watch back-to-back episodes of Bluey on CBeebies (Channel 306), thanks to DStv’s Parental Control Settings.
For the Movie Lover
If you’re a movie lover there’s something to satiate you too. Every Sunday at 20:00 on M-Net, there’s a new movie on offer. This Sunday, 25th August, Beautiful Wedding is your movie night choice. An over-the top romantic comedy starring reality TV star, Kyle Richards and Rob Estes, it’s the perfect watch to help you escape, relax and prepare for the new week. If that’s not enough, DStv Box Office is available for you rent the latest movies fresh out-of-the-cinema for just P25 per movie.
It doesn’t stop at international movies. With Mzansi Magic and Africa Magic showcasing the best in fresh new African content every week, allow yourself to discover the richness of African productions with tales and stories you can relate to.
The Unpredictable
Despite your polished image, you’re also whimsically unpredictable. We know you’ll probably only ever bring the salads and garlic bread to the braai, but we know you can also spend hours catching up on The Food Channel’s (Channel 175) BBQ Brawl, virtually mastering how to make any and everything on the grill come out tasty. And don’t worry, no one’s judging you for watching hours of The Murder Tapes on Investigation Discovery (Channel 171) without batting an eyelid. For you, the diva who takes on boardrooms and gets the kids in line before school-drop offs, a little murder mystery is nothing to get worked up about.
For the woman who wants endless variety with endless convenience, DStv Stream and Showmax is your go-to. Asides from the vast content available to satisfy every side of you, the fact that staying connected is as easy as downloading the MyDStv and Showmax apps, or paying via WhatsApp and www.dstv.com, is what really takes the prize.
