RTÜK'S PENALTY PROMPTS ACTION FROM CHANNEL MANAGEMENT

Following this development, it was learned that the FOX TV management held an emergency meeting to evaluate the decision.

Renowned economist Prof. Dr. Özgür Demirtaş stated that he finds the penalty imposed on Kızıl Goncalar by RTÜK to be wrong.

'THE SERIES MUST CONTINUE...'

Demirtaş stated, "I really liked the series. Contrary to what is thought, it criticizes both sides. It critiques both sides. That magnificent scene proves how both the February 28th supporters and the sects are equally at fault. The series must continue; if necessary, it should be put on YouTube. It will break viewership records."

WHAT IS THE PLOT OF KIZIL GONCALAR?

Kızıl Goncalar follows the intersecting fates of Levent (Özcan Deniz), a secular Kemalist, and Meryem (Özgü Namal), who lives within a conservative sect, while highlighting the unifying power of motherhood/fatherhood when it comes to a "child," despite differences in faith and opinion.

Kızıl Goncalar is produced by Faruk Turgut and written by Şükrü Necati Şahin. The series stars Özcan Deniz and Özgü Namal.
