Leyla et Mecnun

This TV-series have a great sense-of-hum-our.

Very smart jokes and excellent script also casting is well.

But some jokes may makes no-sense for non-Turkish people.

You should have some knowledge about recent Turkish news and some knowledge from the past.

As I said, jokes are quite smart so sometimes it is hard to understand also but when you understand you are having a great pleasure.

If you are planning to watch with sub-titles you should look for some information about this cases.

You can also watch this by satellite receiver from TRT (Turkish Radio and Television).

Also you can watch live from the web page of TRT.

It is very nice how they present the meaning of love in this serial. You can easily fall in love by the help of this serial. I would like to thank all Leyla ile Mecnun's team so that they have created such an excellent serial. Subtitled girl is a product of excellent creation of scenarist. I recommend this serial everyone who wants to have fun and drama at the same time using the real elements from life by this serial. Every scenario is well thought. In my opinion, the best part is 38. part. I have watched it many times. You will feel some parts in each character from yourself. and also Ismail abi is the one who is desired by everyone to have such a big-brother who can share and join your feelings sincerely.

A lot better of the American Coupling TV series, quality close to British coupling. The best Turkish TV series ever made. I prefer watching this , instead of classical Nbc TV series like How I Met Your Mother. I hope the quality goes on. The series start with a flashback , where we see two babies, who are meant to be together forever , a classical oriental far/middle east story. The background is the Bosphorus and Istanbul.Mecnun is in her mid twenties , still trying to graduate from high school and Leyla is in university, living in a mansion.Arda is the ex boyfriend of Leyla, whose father is doing business with Leyla's father and Leyla's father is in huge depth. He tries to convince his daughter to marry to Arda.Because it is an absurd comedy, you can see Mecnun in space , sometimes Leyla on an island after a plane crash (Oceanic Airways :) ), sometimes a friend of them trying to survive 147 hours on a mountain :)... The series created a huge fan group and still groving .

This is a most interesting and exciting TV series in Turkey right now. Even if Ezgi Asaroglu left the show, still it didn't lose much from itself and it is still popular TV series in Turkey. The topic that it handles is more like absurd comedy. But it contains laugh, love, and tears. But it has lots of comedy that involves with Turkish language. So if you don't know Turkish, you probably miss the most of the jokes. Ali Atay, Koksal Engur, Cengiz Bozkurt, Mumtaz Taylan, Osman Sonant, Serkan Keskin are great actors, and they plays in cinema and theaters too. However, it has some directing troubles. Especially if Onur Unlu didn't direct the episode, some glitches may stand out in your eyes.

I never felt like before while watching a TV series. It makes you wanna laugh while you feel so sad at the same time. Character's joy and sadness are so pure that you feel these feelings inside yourself altogether, like a childhood memory.

It is like a laughter when you see some friend falling accidentally or it is like a sadness when your ice cream slip away from its cone. "Leyla ile Mecnun" is totally surreal and absurd but it is so natural as well.

The bad thing about the series is that some jokes or situations are very local in their content so that they can not be translated fully.
