Leyla and 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.

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.

Words are not enough to describe this show. It's more emotional than it's funny. You can watch this show to laugh or cry or not to feel alone.This show will be like your family after 6 episodes or such a number like that. This show is the best Turkish show you might possibly even watch and i think it can compete with most of the Hollywood made up TV-series. I hope they will get a movie soon or at least publish 2 more episodes so that we can see how it really ends.

Leyla and Mecnun is a Turkish television comedy series. The series is a surreal and absurd comedy that revolves around the fictional love story between Leyla and Mecnun. I think the best comedy series made in Turkey. I think that really deserve 9 points. I wish I had more. When finished series I felt the lack in my life. Really I miss this series. It was a memorable series for me. My favorite character white beard grandfather and Ismaıl. Dede is a fictional character from Turkish folk tales, and he appears in people's dreams to give them directions and foresight. Burak Aksak really successful a writer. You should definitely watch this series. I would say at least a look... 10/10

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 .
