Previous shows

• "Mullets" (Mullet referring to the hair- and lifestyle). A show started by an ex-member of the "AF" team where two hilbilly-like characters tour the country, supposedly myth busting, but in fact just disguising AF-style stunts as myths.

The show is older than the channel and was migrated to MK89 by MultiChoice as it is a better fit here than on the previous, English only, channel "Go". It is renowned for its parodic inserts, some of the best film-making on the channel.

• "Af" (Afrikaans for "Off" in the context of not being correct). A show that features a set group of nicknamed students, doing silly (but almost always hurtful) stunts, annoying the unsuspecting public or just indulging in general strange behaviour. This show closely copies MTV’s "Jackass". The show’s main cast member presents the show in Ashton Kutcher’s style in MTV’s "Punk’d" (Black and white monologues with an all white background. The camera angles are face and profiles shots while he is talking, and switches randomly).

The Vuilhonne (Afrikaans slang for dirty dogs), as the group call themselves, have become celebrities, even featuring on national magazine covers. "AF" is by far the most popular programme on the channel, across gender and racial groups.

• "Matrix" (In Afrikaans with parts in English). A South African reality show in which eight girls, who have just finished school, are given a Matric Rage (also known as Matric Rave) holiday (the South African equivalent of Schoolies week). All the young adults who have just finished school migrate to the coastal towns to celebrate. The show documents the girls going to a house in Keurbooms Strand, Plettenberg Bay which is part of South Africa's Garden Route. The girls entered this reality show, which boasts a sum of money as a prize, with their best friend. There are multiple occurrences during this holiday that challenge the girls, including dealing with problems in the area relating to a flood which occurred in the area days before their arrival, such as there being no running water for a number of days. The girls vote for a winner each episode and then an overall winner is picked from a final count of the votes at the end of the show.
