Ömür Usta keeps growing. The new NOW drama with Nurgül Yeşilçay and Bülent İnal was fifth in Total but second in AB with 6.54, only five episodes in.
Tuzlu Kahve, the Star TV family comedy with Eda Ece and Buğra Gülsoy, led Tuesday night in AB (4.95) and ABC1 (5.11). On Thursday, Halef: Köklerin Çağrısı scored 3.55.
A tough start for Sevdam Karadeniz
At the bottom of the chart, the new NOW Black Sea drama Sevdam Karadeniz finished last of 22 series in all three groups with its second episode (1.84 Total). Turkish TV reporters say the channel has decided to end it after its fourth episode; there is no official statement yet. The Show TV comedy Muhtemel Aşk was second to last.
