After a long time of uncertainty about the legendary show’s future, SBS has officially confirmed that RockWiz will not be making its return to the network.
According to TV Tonight, SBS Channel manager Ben Nguyen confirmed the sad news.
“The decision we’ve made is that it is time to call an end to RocKwiz after a long success on SBS,” he said.
“Julia (Zemiro) became a big talent through SBS but it is a natural decision as channels evolve and moving into new spaces over time.”
Zemiro took to Twitter to share her disappointment in the news.
Yes it’s true @RocKwiz officially is no longer @SBS . While disappointing I must celebrate their vision a decade ago to give us a chance in the first place. We were the little ship that could. And did. https://t.co/oPFKgtNBQt
