Talat Bulut confesses to ratings manipulation after controversy with “Forbidden Apple” series.
Talat Bulut, the renowned Turkish actor who left the Forbidden Apple series after a successful run, has taken on the leading role in the TV8 series “Trap” this season. Despite some criticisms of the script’s believability, the actor gave an exceptional performance that won him praise from audiences on social media.
However, the ratings for the show faltered due to the script’s problems, which also drew negative attention. Still, the show managed to complete its run of 26 episodes on TV8 due to significant foreign interest and international sales.
Last week, the TV series “Trap” bid farewell to its audience, which included Talat Bulut and his co-stars Akın Akınözü and Bensu Soral. Even though the ratings were not as high as expected, Talat Bulut shared his view that ratings were a crucial criterion for every actor. He further elaborated that “everyone wants to do as many episodes as they start and end.”
Despite some criticisms of his earlier statements on young actors’ capabilities, Talat Bulut maintains his positive stance on the industry’s young talents. Acknowledging their exceptional skills, the actor clarified that his comment was not intended to undermine anyone’s abilities.
In conclusion, while the TV series “Trap” may have faced its share of criticisms, Talat Bulut’s leading role helped elevate the show’s ratings and made it possible for it to complete its run. With his continued support for the industry’s younger performers, Talat Bulut remains a sought-after artist in the Turkish entertainment industry.
