Tolgahan Sayışman returned to the screens with his TV series project called Barbaros Hayreddin Sultanın Fermanı, which was screened on Friday evenings. Fans who follow the actor’s career line well remember how the series named Şeref Sözü (Word of honor), which was published in 2020, was a big break.
So much effort was spent and so much money was poured into the series of Şeref Sözü that it was seen as one of the projects expected to make the best debut of 2020. Tolgahan Sayışman also trusted the series as the male lead of this story. In fact, Kalem Island opposite Dikili has been given a completely different look for the project.
Setting off with the potential to be the best TV series of the season, Şeref Sözü unfortunately received lower than expected ratings and was disappointing. After the series, which remained on the screen for only 4 episodes, Tolgahan Sayışman announced that he would take a break from television projects and trade with his businessman identity.
Saysman also founded a production company for himself and went behind the scenes as a producer for various projects. Now, a similar problem seems to be on the horizon in this career break of the actor, who experienced the great failure in the series Şeref Sözü.
There is a great disappointment in the second season of the story of Barbaros Hayreddin Pasha, which TRT1 revealed with big budgets again last season and could not find the success it was looking for with two very influential players such as Ulaş Tuna Astepe and Engin Altan Düzyatan.
The second episode of the series, in which Tolgahan Sayışman started with great expectations as the leading role, was also published and the ratings were very bad.
The Barbaros Hayreddin series, which was disappointing with its ratings far below the average, is known as a production prepared by TRT1 using all its possibilities.
The second episode of the series was 23rd in the all-person category, 20th in the AB group, and 19th in ABC1, surprising everyone.
It was surprising that the story of a name like Barbaros Hayreddin Pasha, whose name was written in golden letters in Turkish history, received such low ratings.
Tolgahan Sayışman, on the other hand, is going through the same process for the second time in the TV series Barbaros Hayreddin in 2020, where the great expectations he had with the TV series Şeref Sözü were not met and the audience did not show enough interest.
