Surprises of the new TV season 2021/22

TV season

According to a fairly knowledgeable source who works in the industry, what viewers know about the new projects for the 2021/22 season is just a small fraction of the upcoming TV shows. Moreover, these are not small series, but the most large-budget ones, which are produced by the largest companies.

The industry has become afraid of loud statements that end in zilch and until the series is at the start, nothing is known about it. For example, Mehmet Bozdag was preparing the Legend series for a very long time, the huge budget was allocated, but information about it appeared only two months before filming. Don’t be surprised if some TV channels completely renew their broadcasting schedule in the new season. Several series will be announced in August that will shock the viewers.

Also, most of the current TV series will be taken off the air, except for the biggest hits such as The Ottoman or stable rating projects such as Back Streets. The reason is strategic forecasts for rating downgrades in the long term due to the increasing pressure from digital platforms. The loss of AB category is especially worried.

As a result, it was decided to change tactics and make more TV shows, changing content more often in order to keep viewers’ attention for at least a month and a half. The first to use this tactic is TRT1, which has already ordered many short and long series. Others will follow.
