Hekimoglu de Kanal D
In November Kanal D Drama will launch the medical drama Hekimoglu in the Spanish-speaking market in the U.S. The series debuts on Tuesday, November 16, with an exclusive presentation of the show’s virtual premiere on Facebook on Monday, November 15 at 9pm Eastern/6pm Pacific.
“Audiences have always had a thing for medical dramas on television for decades, and now more than ever in a post-pandemic era. In this series, the main character inspired by the award-winning medical drama Dr. House plays a sarcastic and antisocial doctor. Dr. Hekimoglu, while unlikeable, is a genius, and he develops a great reputation for solving the most perplexing medical cases. I’m sure this captivating drama will resonate with the Hispanic audience from the first episode,” said Francheska León de la Barra, Marketing Director for Kanal D Drama in the U.S. and LatAm.
Hekimoglu is an adaptation of the famous U.S. series House, M.D. The Turkish version features Timuçin Esen (Cruzando Mares) in the lead role of Dr. Ateş Hekimoglu, a renowned physician in infectious diseases and nephrology.
The series will air Monday through Friday at 8:20pm Eastern / 5:20pm Pacific via Xfinity and Verizon FiOS (channel 1586), and it will also be available for streaming via Kanal D Drama’s app.
