The consulting firm published its report on the main trends in TV fiction for the first half of 2025, highlighting the growing presence of different markets as IP generators, adaptations, co-productions, and innovative formats.

With the first half of the year already behind us, Teleformat published its classic report on the main trends in TV fiction for the first six months of 2025, a period in which the international market gained significant importance through adaptations, co-productions, and local hits for OTT platforms.

In terms of original production, the report highlights a clear trend toward the internationalization of production, with a greater presence of series originating in Europe and Latin America, especially on Netflix and Disney+. For their part, Prime Video and Max are adjusting their regional strategies: Prime Video is moving away from Europe, while Max is focusing on it. Apple TV+ maintains a conservative stance, with no territorial expansion in terms of the origin of its series.

By country, however, the US strongly leads the global fiction market with 137 premieres in the first half of 2025, 47% more than in 2024, consolidating its international dominance. Russia and Japan strengthen their position in the Top 3, while Europe consolidates its prominence with four countries in the ranking. Mexico remains the only Latin American country in the Top, with 24 premieres in the first half of 2025.

Of these productions, the most popular genres continue to be drama series, followed by comedy series, miniseries, dramedy, and animation.

The US clearly leads the export of original fiction ideas in the first half of 2025, with 16 titles distributed to other markets. South Korea and Spain (6) and the United Kingdom (5) complete the podium, confirming its global influence. On the other hand, Mexico leads the ranking of countries with the most fiction adaptations in the first half of 2025, with 10 titles, followed by Colombia (7).

The most adapted title in the first half of the year is Netflix’s Spanish film Machos Alfa, which leads the international adaptation ranking, with three new local versions in France, the Netherlands, and Italy. No other title reaches this level: Ghosts (UK, BBC One) adds two new markets. The remaining 36 adapted titles have only been adapted once in this period.

The report also highlights the consolidation of the trend toward producing fiction series through international co-productions, a key strategy for platforms such as Netflix, Prime Video, Hulu, and others seeking to diversify content and expand their global reach. These alliances allow for the combination of talent and resources from different countries, resulting in ambitious titles with a multicultural focus, primarily in genres such as drama and thriller, although with a growing openness to new narrative proposals. Particularly noteworthy are European collaborations -such as Anaon (France–Germany), Favàritx (Spain–Portugal), and Il Gattopardo (Italy–United Kingdom)- along with intercontinental co-productions such as Owambo (Finland–Namibia) and Yo no soy Mendoza (Colombia–Mexico). These projects reflect an interest in expanding cultural perspectives and offering more diverse narratives, aligned with globally connected audiences and with platforms that already act as transnational co-producers.

Regarding trends for the first half of 2025, Teleformat highlights the rise of vertical format series, listing several examples of initiatives in this regard by companies such as SDO Entertainment, Kwai Brasil, Televisa, Caracol, We Latam, Shortly, and ReelShort.

Other notable trends include the popularity of crime series, with original approaches, unconventional characters, and genre blends; The portrayal of people with disabilities or mental illnesses as active agents in their stories, leaving behind the passive or victimizing role; fictions set in war contexts; fictions that dismantle the ideal family; and finally, a boom in the blending of sports with more traditional fiction genres such as romance or family, in addition to beginning to expand into the popular vertical format.

In its new annual report, Teleformat reveals the countries, genres and platforms that led the TV industry last year. The US leads in entertainment, while China led in fiction.

Another year of changes and ups and downs has ended for the television industry, which continues to evolve hand in hand with streaming and changing the rules of the game in terms of the production of original content.

According to the latest annual report from Teleformat, in 2024 more than 2,700 non-fiction premieres were recorded worldwide. In this sense, the United States stands out as the leader with 421 productions. It is followed by the United Kingdom with 347 and Germany with 224. Meanwhile, countries such as Spain (174) and South Korea (154) demonstrated high levels of production, showing a wide diversity in entertainment.

Television offered a wide range of non-fiction titles with a total of 910 docuseries and 833 reality shows leading the production. Game shows also had a major role with 385 premieres, followed by magazines (138) and talk shows (125).

The true crime subgenre led with 225 productions, followed by cooking and gastronomy with 178 and sports topics with 165. Also notable were content on lifestyle tourism and travel (143) and relationship programs (100), as well as economics and business (90), reflecting a balance between entertainment and information.

In 2024, 73.8% of the premieres were broadcast on linear television, while digital platforms accounted for 26.2%. These data show the importance of entertainment for platforms as complementary alternatives.

In 2024, Netflix led the top 10 non-fiction releases with 96 titles, followed by Prime Video with 75. Among the linear channels, the British Channel 4 stood out with 65 and Channel 5 with 64. MAX (50), Arte (44) and ITV1 (43) also played a leading role, showing a solid presence both on digital platforms and on traditional television.

On the fiction side, more than 2,500 releases were recorded, where the most prolific country in number of releases in 2024 is China, with 364. It is followed by Russia (190), the United States (182), Japan (179) and Thailand (154). Asia therefore demonstrates its great weight this season in terms of series production.

In Europe, the United Kingdom stands out with 94 new fictions. In Latin America, Mexico is the country with the highest number of premieres: 47.

In 2024, as usual, Drama is the genre with the highest number of premieres in the world: 1,378. Comedy (422) and dramedy (258) follow closely behind. Animation and Miniseries are practically tied, and serials and soap operas reach a total of 127 titles released. Anthologies and sitcoms have little representation.

Last year, 2024, the Love/Romance subgenre led the distribution of premieres, followed by Suspense (335), Family (241) and Human Relations (240). Action/Adventure and Police/Detectives would be next in the ranking. A little further behind, Fantasy/Science Fiction.

There is a fairly even split between linear TV premieres and SVOD/VOD platforms in the world: just over half (55.6%) of fiction debuts occurred on linear channels, while 44.4% of premieres took place on streaming.

Last year, Netflix was the platform that stood out above the rest in number of premieres: 158 new series. It is followed by the Chinese Tencent Video with 129. Somewhat behind are Prime Video, with 83, and the Chinese iQIYI with 80. As far as linear channels are concerned, Malaysia’s TV3 (29) is the only channel that enters the ranking.
