Vahide Perçin, who took part in the TV series Bir Zamanlar Çukurova (Once Upon a Time in Çukurova), which is expected to make its finale soon, for 2.5 seasons and is among the unforgettable with her portrayal of Hünkar, is preparing for her new project. The master actress, who will return to the sets after a 1.5-year hiatus, will take the lead role in a law series this time.
Vahide Perçin, one of the most influential names in drama productions, is returning to the ATV screen with the series named Hakime Hanım (Judge Lady). It was also remarkable that the actress, whom the audience has been accustomed to watching on the ATV screen for years, preferred the same channel with the new series.
The Hakime Hanım series is a legal series, and the fact that The Yargı (Judgement) on Kanal D is the best debut of this season has prompted the producers to produce similar projects. In this sense, the Hakim (Judge) series meets the audience on the ATV screen and all five episodes have been broadcast. Although it has a very effective story and cast, we cannot say that Hakim’s TV series has made a strong debut as Yargı.
At this point, it is necessary to look at the Fox TV series Evlilik Hakkında Her Şey (All About Marriage). Adapted from the BBC series The Split, Evlilik Hakkında Her Şey is also a law-themed series and was very popular at first. But then there was a troubled process and if the international sales weren’t good in the last period, even the early finale of the series was on the agenda.
The fact that the Hakim series did not make a very good debut, and Evlilik Hakkında Her Şey lost an important part of the large audience over time, reveals how important the story is. At this point, we can say that the fact that the Yargı series surprises the audience every week is the reason why it continues so effectively.
Vahide Perçin’s Hakime Hanım series, like Hakim, carries the risk of being a production where great expectations are created and this cannot be met. Because viewers will prefer law-themed TV series if the story is very strong.
What screenwriter Ayfer Tunç will do in the script will determine the fate of the series. Everyone is aware that Vahide Perçin, who will portray the character of a strong judge in the series where Emre Aybek will act as a director, will suit this role very well. However, if the script cannot deeply affect the audience, as in The Yargı, it will not be easy for its ratings to be very high.
Casting selections for the series continue and it is expected to go to the set when the cast is completed. According to the situation of the shootings that will start in the summer months, the series is expected to meet the audience on the ATV screen from September.
