Intersection Set for Season Two on FOX Turkey

LONDON: Intersection, produced by Endemol Shine Turkey, has been given a second-season order by FOX Turkey.

The series premiered on FOX Turkey in January with a peak audience of 3.2 million viewers, which is 1 million-plus viewers more than the broadcaster’s prime-time average. Following this success, the channel ordered 13 new prime-time episodes, which will see the series airing on FOX Turkey until the end of June.

The drama features Turkish actors Ibrahim Çelikkol, Belçim Bilgin and Alican Yücesoy. Intersection is directed by Gokcen Usta Caylar with Omer Faruk Sorak as the project designer/supervisor. The show is distributed by Endemol Shine International.

“In the last 18 months, Endemol Shine Turkey has become one of the most prolific scripted production companies in Turkey and this latest deal is testament to our brilliant team,” said Gokhan Tatarer, the managing director of Endemol Shine Turkey. “We are thrilled the lead stars will be joining us in Cannes as we launch the show to international buyers at MIPTV. Audiences in Turkey have been gripped by the story of love and rivalries and we truly believe Intersection has all the makings to be the next international success.”
