Leyla and Mecnun

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.

it is the best comedy TV series i have ever watched. It mirrors Turkish daily life and street culture. Relations between neighbours and their behaviors are natural. Main characters's brains work as a child.

Characters in this TV series are anti-hero. Even if all scenario is fantastic, it is like just usual and you don't think they piffle.

Actors are great and they love their characters.

Other characters are also created very smartly, they are really funny. İsmail Abi is the most popular one and he is pure. although everything in TV series was bad, I would watch just for İsmail Abi.

Everyone should watch from first episode to the last one. thanks for reading

This is the most attractive TV series that I have ever seen. The quality of acting and the logic of the writing affect like a magician all of the watchers. I hope it could be infinite!

I know quantity of the expenses are really minimal, but also the the pleasure of spending time with watching that movie can not be defined as well as true.

Everybody should watch this unique cliffhanger if they are ready to watch a real absurd life.

Here we can see the main actors/actresses of this series: Ali Atay, Melis Birkan, Ezgi Asaroglu, Ahmet Mümtaz Taylan, Köksal Engür, Serkan Keskin, Osman Sonant, Ushan Çakir, Asuman Dabak.

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.

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.
