Glass Home (Bulgarian: Стъклен дом, Stˈɤ̞klen dom) was a Bulgarian drama series created by bTV. It's a family drama and the executive producers were Dimitаr Mitovski and Dimitаr Gochev from "Camera OOD". It aired in bTV's primetime. Some of Bulgaria's most famous actors star in the series, which was directed by Viktor Bojinov and Petar Rusev.
In the beginning of 2010, bTV announced that a new Bulgarian show was shot, starting in February 2010. On 11 April 2010 the first season premieres and continues to 20 June the same year. After a short pause, the second season begins on 26 September and it's titled "Glass Home: Time for Truth" (Bulgarian: "Стъклен дом: Време за истина"). 13 episodes were shown and the show went on another pause, which ended with the beginning of second half of the second season: "Glass Home: Time for Truth - The Resolution" (Bulgarian: "Стъклен дом: Време за истина - Развръзката"). On 30 March, bTV announced that season 3 started on 11 April 2011, exactly one year after the show's first episode aired, and with no break between Season 2 and 3. It is called "Glass Home: The Temptation" (Bulgarian: "Стъклен дом: Изушението") and it takes place three years after the finale of the second season. One of the storylines of this season is Elena's husband, who later becomes the president of Bulgaria. The season ended on June 10, 2011 after airing nine episodes. The fourth season started airing in Bulgaria on October 31, 2011, a day after the Bulgarian Presidential Election, with the subtitle "The Punishment" (Bulgarian: "Стъклен дом: Наказанието").
Glass Home was one of the most watched programs in the history of Bulgarian television, with all episodes gaining ratings higher than a million viewers, which in a country with a total population less than 7 million was a big success, and the most watched with over 1,8 million. In the social network Facebook, the show has over 200,000 fans (or "likes"). It even has more likes than its broadcasting channel, bTV.
FOX Turkey aired the first season Thursdays at 2am, which led to the low ratings in the country. The ratings continued decreasing and FOX decided to cancel the series.
Glas Home was widely promoted and gained big success in Macedonia. It premiered on August 1, 2011 on Kanal 5. The channel aired the three seasons Monday through Friday at 7.50 PM. The third season started in a new timeslot at 10 AM and no reason or explanation about the move was given. The third season finale aired on October 3, 2011.
