Channel managers stated that the skit was not published due to the low ratings due to the holiday week, and it will be published this week.
Güldür Güldür, one of Turkey’s popular comedy programs, came to the fore with a trailer from a sketch that will bring the recent economic problems to the screens. The trailer featured a skit imitating the Minister of Treasury and Finance Nureddin Nebati. Although many people wait for the sketch on the screen after the trailer in question, the sketch unfortunately appeared in the week it took place in the trailer. not broadcast on television.
While a great debate started on social media with the failure of the aforementioned skit to be published, an important statement came from Show TV today about the incident. by Fatih Altaylı According to the article he shared after his meeting with Show TV, the channel why not published explained as follows:
The sketch was not published as a holiday week, it will be published this week.
“You can confirm this from the producers of Güldür Güldür, we were not bothered by the political sketches in this program. On the contrary, we wanted this tradition to continue in a country where political satire is forgotten. So far, we haven’t touched a single one. We didn’t even take out a single one. You can also call and ask your friends. That’s exactly what happened this time. However, the skit we published the introduction was not published this week. TRUE. But this is not censorship.
The only reason is that it is a holiday week. Since it was the holiday week, the ratings were generally low and we thought that a good sketch would be that the ratings and accordingly the advertising revenues would be higher. we got it right to be published next week. As a channel that has broadcast skits that contain heavy criticism, it never occurred to us not to broadcast a skit that was so funny that even the minister mentioned would laugh.
If we were afraid of such a thing, we would not want a political skit from the beginning, and we would not publish such a long introduction of this skit. We are not so unconscious as to make such a wide publicity and to impose censorship.”
Show TV about the skit not being released so far Why didn’t they explain? explained as follows:
“Who and what were we going to explain? The weekend started on social media. It was reflected in some television channels at night. But not a single person called us and asked why you didn’t publish it. You are the first to call. We also do not have an understanding of responding to all kinds of media created about us on social media.”
