Turkish television productions, or “dizis,” are experiencing significant growth and expanding their presence within the Brazilian media market across both streaming platforms and broadcast television.

Initial indicators of this trend included the rapid success of the Turkish drama ‘Meu Nome é Farah’ on Netflix Brazil, where the series quickly entered the platform’s top six most-watched titles. The show’s popularity highlights a growing interest in Turkish-origin content among Brazilian streaming audiences.

This expansion has extended to traditional broadcast television, with networks like Record TV dedicating prime-time slots to Turkish programming, including upcoming releases such as ‘Iludida’, ‘Minha Menina’, and ‘Doutor Milagre’. In the streaming sector, competition has intensified between platforms like Netflix and Prime Video over rights to classic series such as ‘Fatmagül: A Força do Amor’.
