After the big success of the first Bulgarian TV series made after a pause of almost two decades, bTV ordered the pilot for Seven Hours Difference. [1] The series was sold to the Macedonian television network Kanal 5 before it premiered in Bulgaria. [2] The premiere was on 18 September 2011. The first few episodes had very high ratings but after a while viewership dropped to a steady level. Despite that, Seven Hours Difference remains one of the most popular Bulgarian productions ever to be broadcast. [3]
A second season was ordered during the production of the 15th episode. [4] The first season ended on 18 December 2011, spanning 26 episodes.
The pilot ran as a whole 2 hours episode(with commercials), but ever since bTV airs two consequential 1 hour episodes, which although having each an intro and outro, don't seem to be separate. The first season finale was also a two-hour episode.
