SEASON POSTER AND DATE

TV news today, people, starting with the first poster for the second season of Netflix's popular sitcom FULLER HOUSE which successfully brought back the now grown up stars of Full House classic comedy series to the small screens earlier this year in a family friendly, warm half hour sitcom.

The second season has been announced for December 9th release and it is going to be holiday themed with episodes covering Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s Eve and more. With grown up DJ (Candace Cameron Bure), now a mother of three kids, having to decide between two gorgeous men who both want her, the second season will also bring back her old school boyfriend Nelson, the introduction of Joey’s wife and children, the arrival of a freakish D.J. clone and a special appearance from New Kids on the Block.

'MAGNIFICENT CENTURY: KOSEM'

2ND SEASON TEASERS & POSTERS

An exotic delight for you today as well: Turkish Tims Productions has released today the first teasers and posters for the second season of the popular historical saga MAGNIFICENT CENTURY: KOSEM about one of Turkey's most famous sultanas from the famous period called 'the sultanate of women'.

ERA OF SULTAN MURAD IV
New teasers give us the first looks at now grown up sultan Murad IV, now played by Turkish heartthrob Metin Akgülder, the 17th Padishah of the Ottoman Empire while addressing his subjects for the first time, and also the first look of gorgeous Nurgül Yeşilçay as his mother sultana KOSEM ! As you remember if you watched the first season (it airs in all Arabic countries, large part of Europe and Southern America), the first season ended with sultana KOSEM finally defeating all of her enemies and enthroning her eldest living son Murad to the Ottoman throne, inheriting the position of Valide Sultan, declaring herself the official regent to the crown. As the first teaser says the new season will mark the era of Murad IV which was known for brutality and absolutism.

FULL CAST SWITCH!

Since the first season ended with all enemies killed or destroyed, and with all of Kosem's children now grown up, the second season of KOSEM will be the most unprecedented one, possibly in worldwide sense too, because it will have an entirely new cast not just with new actors playing princes and princesses (Doğaç Yıldız as prince Kasim, Batuhan Karacakaya as prince Ibrahim, Leyla Feray as sultana Ayshe and Farah Zeynep as another Ayshe sultana - Murad's consort) but also with Nurgül Yeşilçay taking over the role of KOSEM from Beren Saat whose rather sad lack of charisma and acting chops have left the audience requesting a replacement in the lead role. Thus, Nurgul will take over the role of KOSEM who gained her prestige as the most formidable, influential, and powerful sultana in Ottoman history.

NURGUL YESILCAY TO REPLACE BEREN SAAT IN 'KOSEM SULTANA' EPIC TV SERIES? TOBY SANDEMAN IS PRINCE OF MOROCCO IN 'ROYALS' SEASON 3! BBC TO TURN 'MINIATURIST' INTO 17 CENTURY SERIES! NBC BUYS 'THE ARK' SF DRAMA

'KOSEM SULTANA' EPIC SERIES

NURGUL YESILCAY TO REPLACE BEREN SAAT AT THE THRONE? 

Television news for you this Sunday, starting with the royal gossips coming from Istanbul's Topkapi palace which say that Beren Saat could be replaced in the second season of the worldwide hit saga KOSEM SULTANA by Turkey's best paid TV star Nurgül Yeşilçay! I must admit I'd welcome the replacement given how much the audience was dissatisfied with Beren's lack of any interest in giving some depth or personality to her portrayal of the 17th century sultana Kosem who ruled Ottoman Empire through her husband and later on her sons. With her shocking lack of expression and acting chops Beren has really  taken for granted the role which most actresses would consider an acting playground and a role of a lifetime. It is interesting that the second season will have an unprecedented full cast change, since all of the characters have been killed in the first one or have grown up and will be played by older stars. Caner Cindoruk, Burak Yamantürk, Metin Akdülger, Farah Zeynep Abdullah, Naz Elmas are just some of the stars I've heard could play Kosem's grown up princes and princesses and courtiers in the new season which should return this Autumn.
