If you’re a fan of Turkish series, you’ve probably heard of Bitter Earth. This Antena 3 series was a huge hit, attracting over 1.7 million viewers every afternoon from Monday to Friday. The show’s main characters, Züleyha, Demir, and Yilmaz, captivated audiences with their relatable problems, making it difficult to look away from the screen.
Bitter Earth ran for more than 12 months, and fans began to wonder when the show would come to an end. Especially since February 19th, a new Turkish series aimed at revolutionizing the channel arrived on Antena 3’s programming.
Original Sin is the new fiction broadcast from Monday to Friday at 5:30 p.m. on Antena 3, and it seemed to be on the verge of competing with Bitter Earth for viewers. However, plans for Atresmedia’s longest-running series took an unexpected turn, affecting Original Sin.
Bitter Earth has always been broadcast on weekdays from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., preceding the new news program, And Now Sonsoles. But since Monday, the Turkish series has shifted its broadcast to 6:30 p.m., abandoning its usual schedule and disrupting Original Sin’s airing time.
To make room for the new series, Bitter Earth had to shorten the duration of its episodes, allowing it to air more chapters and extend its ending. Although this was a significant change, Bitter Earth’s most loyal followers were happy about the series’ extended length.
Original Sin tells the story of two sisters with very different visions of the future. On the one hand, Zeynep is a hard-working and responsible sister-in-law who will be lucky in love and life. On the other hand, there’s Star, the more impulsive and crazy sister whose dream of being rich will be frustrated until she finds the solution to her financial problems and achieves the social status she’s always dreamed of.
In conclusion, if you’re a fan of Turkish series, you won’t want to miss Original Sin on Antena 3. Although it disrupted the airing time of Bitter Earth, it promises to captivate viewers with its unique storyline and captivating characters.
