Turn feelings into words that hurt and heal

Ratings of Turkish TV

The show “Cranberry Sherbet” (Kızılcık Şerbeti) dropped by 0.62% in total and 1.89% in AB. Producer Faruk Turgut’s show remains one of the most popular on Turkish television and has already been renewed for a fourth season. The slight decline, attributed to the “summer factor,” will not affect its future.

The show “Dangerous Ceylan” (Sustalı Ceylan) aired a modest finale, falling by 0.45% in total and holding steady in AB. Unfortunately, the story failed to capture the interest of the Turkish audience.

The show “Once Upon a Time in Istanbul” (Bir Zamanlar İstanbul) dropped by 0.20% in total and rose by 0.31% in AB. Despite its clear ratings failure, the project continues on air thanks to its broadcast on a state-run channel. However, this will not be enough to secure a second season.
