M-Net's Pearl Magic Prime (PMP) channel marks its 4th anniversary on MultiChoice's DStv platform with 17 commissioned shows like Crossroads and 15 licensed shows which are all showcasing Uganda's growing film and TV industry.
"Pearl Magic Prime's 4-year journey has been one of creativity and community, providing a platform for Ugandan stories to shine," says Rinaldi Jamugisa, MultiChoice Uganda's communications manager.
"This anniversary is a tribute to our dedicated viewers and the creative minds behind every show."
Margaret Mathore, M-Net East Africa head of channels, says "Since October last year, we have introduced compelling new content that continues to captivate Ugandan audiences".
"Our commitment to premium local programming remains steady, and we are excited about nurturing and showcasing Ugandan talent."
Two years after M-Net launched the Pearl Magic channel, it started Pearl Magic Prime as a spin-off from Pearl Magic, launched on 8 February 2021.
