WtFOCK (stylised as wtFOCK, pronounced as wha-teh-fock) is a Belgian teen drama web series broadcast by Play4 that follows the lives of teenagers in Antwerp. Broadcast was then taken over by Belgian streaming services Play More, Streamz, and GoPlay in preceding years. It is an adaptation of the popular Norwegian series SKAM.[2] By the end of the first season, it was reported that around 100,000 people were watching wtFOCK every week.[3] When the show returned with a sixth season, featuring a new cast and original storylines, it was estimated that wtFOCK episodes had been streamed over 3 million times since their release.[4]
