The Life and Movies of Erşan Kuneri

Ahahaha I just binged Ersan Kuneri, but couldn't get enough. :D Thankfully we will continue to learn what he has in his portfolio in 2. Season. It's interesting to see Turks who do everything with their kids trying to make adult movies and series.

I come accross too many negative reviews on social media regarding the adult language used in Ersan Kuneri. Who cares. It's barely a tvMA but most people from conservative and religious background find this sitcom inappropriate which is actually a great hint for the level of freedom of thought and freedom of speech in a westernized Muslim society.

Ersan is one-of-a-kind so far. Lovely, charming, vibrant, glowing and most importantly a hysterically funny production. More like a mockumentory. A former, good-natured but unfortunate porn star is trying to make regular movies and gain respect and acceptance among his colleagues. Just like all of us. Gives a lot of clues on highly conservative Turkish culture, understanding, world view, background, history, relationships, etc.

Evidently Turks has still a brutal censor both in their minds and in rules and regulations. You gotta watch Ersan first if you are planning to go to Turkey guys and gals!

Cem YILMAZ is one of the most controversial writer, actor or comedian in Turkey because of his history which is full of laughter of the audience. When it comes to movies almost everyone gets disappointed because of this history. Everybody expects to LoL indefinitely during the movies or any kind of show that he takes part or produces. However I found the series really funny as well as the neat and diligent work behind the scenes. The team is amazing. There are lots of veiled jokes you may discover and in my opinion these are pieces of art.

I do like all of Cem Yilmaz's work and Ersan Kuneri is my new favorite. I am already so excited to see more of Ersan Kuneri in the future, additional episodes as well as cameos etc.

From all the set designs, scripts, styling to acting I enjoyed watching this series more than any other production this year. The general idea is brilliant, the topics and mini movies in the series are very clever written but very easy to understand and digest. Watch it alone or with company, its awesome.

I watched first two episodes and rated the entire series as 5. I was thinking that it was not worth to watch and watching will be waste of time despite the very talented high profile team. Please continue watching a few more episodes before you decide the show is not worth to watch. In case you decide not to watch please do not make the mistake I did and rated the series less than it deserves. Only one episode left for us to watch at the moment and the current feeling we have is sadness, since there will be no more after this one. DOYAMADIK : )

They observed Turkey's current problems and showed em to people by using quirky humour. Actors were superb screenwriting even better also decoration and costumes were near perfect for almost every skit. Just give it a try !
