Isler Güçler (2012)
From reality to comedy
One of the best comedy series recently in Turkey.
"İşler Güçler" is the story of three new actors who try to be famous by making TV shows. Actors use their own name and life story for the series and that makes reality a kind of comedy. İşler Güçler is appreciated especially by young and educated people and watched on internet more than TV.
Ahmet Kural, Murat Cemcir, and Sadi Celil Cengiz are stars of the series. The three, had also acted in "Üsküdar'a Giderken" (a comedy series) before İşler Güçler and started to be known in Turkey. After this series ended, Murat Cemcir and Ahmet Kural acted in a comedy film "Çalgı Çengi" that got a fair success in cinemas. The film was also supported by Cem Yilmaz, comedy star of Turkey. Ahmet Kural also acted in a series called "Gazi" telling stories of a veteran soldier formerly fought in eastern of Turkey against terrorism.
Leyla ile Mecnun (2011)
The best TV series in Turkey
Leyla and Mecnun is the best TV series ever, in Turkey. They make absurd comedy, that's hard to achieve. All the characters have different skills and it's very enjoyable to watch them. Although this is a comedy series, sometimes it can make people cry, just after laughing, due to it's concept and skillful cast. Leyla and Mecnun created a new type of comedy in Turkey. They still lead the concept and other series try to create similar performances. Leyla and Mecnun deserves a good cinema film with their high performance and it's no doubt, the film will be watched by large numbers of people in cinemas. The worst thing about the series was the leave of Ezgi Asaroğlu. She was the first "Leyla" and the series was much better with her.
