Binnelanders (previously Binneland and Binneland Sub Judice) is a South African Afrikaans soap opera.

The series is produced by Friedrich and Elsje Stark of Stark Productions. Binnelanders is currently airing season 9.
Production history
Binnelanders began as a weekly one-hour drama, the first episode of which was broadcast only in Afrikaans on 13 October 2005 on both M-Net and kykNET. Halfway through the show’s second season, it became a daily half-hour soap opera, and English subtitles were introduced. It was broadcast directly after Egoli on M-Net in the 18:30 time slot. Programming shifted to the 18:00 timeslot in preparation for the conclusion of Egoli, after which Binnelanders would extend over a one-hour period, consuming both time slots.
