The Yalı Çapkını (Golden Boy) series, which is broadcast on Star TV on Friday evenings, is achieving strong ratings in the second season, but the huge decline caused the 41st episode, broadcast on the evening of October 13, to emerge as a breaking point.
The series, starring Afra Saraçoğlu and Mert Ramazan Demir, became the target of criticism in the second season due to its story. Viewers on social media criticized the new script team for ruining the spirit of the series.
In fact, harsh criticism was made against the scriptwriters that they did not watch the first season and that they took the characters to a very different dimension.
This wave of criticism, which had been going on for weeks for the Yalı Çapkını series, did not show itself in the ratings. Until Friday, October 13th. In the 41st episode, there were serious decreases in all audience groups.
Although the series came first with a small difference in the all-person category, its rival, Kızılcık Şerbeti (Cranberry Sherbet), made a big difference in the AB and ABC1 groups.
The huge loss of viewers in the Yalı Çapkını series went up to 2 ratings. So this is expressed as a breaking point.
It is feared that the series will lose viewers again if criticism continues due to its story in the future. It was a surprising situation that the problems experienced in the script brought the series to this point and that although this danger was conveyed to the production team on social media for a long time, no precautions were taken.
