Beneath the surface returns for season two on TOD
Jun 09, 2025
TOD, the popular streaming platform owned by beIN Media Group serving Turkey and the MENA region, has officially renewed its hit thriller series Beneath the Surface for a highly anticipated second season.
Produced by LA and Istanbul-based Karga Seven Pictures, the first season captivated audiences with its compelling mix of family drama, a tense murder mystery, and a rich love story delivering TOD its highest-ever viewing figures upon its 2024 launch.
Returning for the 10-part second season are lead actors Hazal Kaya and Çağlar Ertuğrul, reprising their roles as police officers Cihan and Metin, whose private affairs threaten to undermine their work as front-line murder investigators.
“We are delighted by the opportunity to present another season of this extraordinary series to our clients,” says Handan Özkubat, Director of Turkish Drama at Eccho Rights who will represent the series worldwide. “There is a growing appetite for shorter series, particularly from international streamers who want an entry into Turkish content, so we can’t wait to present this latest premium title, starting at NEM in Dubrovnik this week.”

Eccho Rights lands Turkish dramas on Portugal's SIC
Eccho Rights has secured a significant deal with Portuguese free-to-air broadcaster SIC, licensing a string of acclaimed Turkish drama series to the channel. The agreement sees SIC acquire I Am Mother, My Home My Destiny, A Journey to Belong, Elif and Wounded Birds, adding a substantial new tranche of Turkish drama content to the broadcaster's schedule.
The deal was concluded by Melis Hamamcıoğlu, Sales Executive at Eccho Rights for Portugal, and comes ahead of the international content market Content Europe, which takes place in Lisbon this week (April 21–23).
Melis Hamamcıoğlu commented: "This is a really exciting moment for Eccho Rights in Portugal. SIC remains the country's biggest broadcaster, and bringing such a strong and diverse slate of Turkish titles to their schedule reflects the growing confidence Portuguese audiences have shown in this genre. With Content Europe taking place in Lisbon this week, the timing could not feel more apt — it is a wonderful demonstration of the momentum Turkish drama continues to build right across Europe."
The deal reinforces Eccho Rights' growing footprint in the Iberian market, following recent sales activity across Spain and Latin America.
