Roundups #116: Craig Of The Creek Cancelled On Cartoon Network After 5 Seasons, Reyka Renewed For Season 2 On M-Net And Televisa In Talks To Adapt The Turkish Drama The Girl Named Feriha

Craig Of The Creek is ending here's what you need to know

If you had any hope for the show defying the odds think again, in a series of tweets from the creator Ben Levin talked about the situation while confirming this is really the end.

We wrote the final episode of Craig Of The Creek today. That's 181 episodes in total - not including the movie. Technically, we wrote 188 episodes, but unfortunately 7 of those will not be seen because of our order being cut short (I'll share more about the episodes someday). I'm going to miss this very much. The Creek was a giant sandbox and we tried to make room for everyone to play. We collectively channeled our childhood dreams and adventures into each episode, hoping to inspire the kids watching at home or at least make them laugh. The infinite talents of the entire crew and cast made the Creek into a living, breathing world. The characters and space were rich and nuanced and it felt like we could explore them forever. And we certainly had more stories to tell, but unfortunately because of this merger. This is the end. Still 5 seasons and a movie (and spinoff) ain't nothing. Thanks to everyone who has been part of this writer's room for over six years.

The crew was going to keep this show going but it was cut short with that said what's more concerning is the state of Cartoon Network as the only original program left happens to be We Baby Bears with Teen Titans GO! in another department.

Cartoon Network has a bunch of content coming up such as Unicorn: Warriors Eternal, Invincible Fight Girl and Adventure Time: Fiona And Cake. The only problem is that the channel hasn't shared much details on any of this content of course there is the new Ivandoe series produced in Europe.

Fremantle picks up this local drama for another season

South African crime drama “Reyka,” a co-production between global producer-distributor Fremantle and South African broadcaster M-Net, has been greenlit for a second season.

South African-born Kim Engelbrecht and Iain Glen (“Game of Thrones”) will reprise their roles in the series from writer and creator Rohan Dickson, with production set to kick off in January 2023. Season 2 will premiere on M-Net in late 2023.

The second season centers around a series of violent attacks in the port city of Durban and will see Reyka work with a new team to find mysterious connections between the Lover’s Lane Killer, teenage sex workers and the deadly assault of a cobbler.

Beloved Turkish drama is heading to Mexico

The Girl Named Feriha follows housekeeper Feriha Yilmaz, a young woman from a poor background who is awarded a scholarship to an elite university, where wealthy playboy Emir Sarrafoğlu studies as well. Emir eventually falls in love with Feriha, believing she is also wealthy.

eExtra has been airing all 3 seasons on repeat for as long as it has been viewable on the DStv platform and as several sources mentioned. The Mexican based broadcaster Televisa is looking to adapt the popular Turkish drama - nothing is official as of yet.

But if they do get a shot in remaking The Girl Named Feriha take some facts into account. The whole setting of the show will change some with the character's name. Take into account that this is not the only Turkish drama to be remade by them even Black Money Love was adapted as Imperio De Mentiras.
