Can Yaman has expressed strong frustration over yet another scheduling change for Il Turco on Mediaset. While he previously reacted with humor to adjustments, this time, the actor did not hold back, openly criticizing the network. The situation has also angered his large Italian fan base, who took to social media to voice their complaints.
The issue stems from Mediaset’s initial announcement of Il Turco’s arrival, with a streaming preview set for March 21. However, the broadcaster did not follow through on its promise, instead making last-minute changes to the schedule. Even Yaman himself seems to be in the dark about the reasons behind the shift. Expressing his frustration on Instagram, the actor sarcastically remarked on the reliability of the Italian television industry. He speculated that there might be competition between networks on March 8 and 15, leading to this abrupt decision. His post also contained a pointed critique of Mediaset’s promotional efforts, suggesting that despite the network’s lack of proper planning, Il Turco would still achieve success, as he always has in his career.
The frustration is heightened by the fact that this isn’t the first time the miniseries has faced scheduling changes. The series, available internationally since March 21, had already undergone a slight adjustment before, but this latest rescheduling by Mediaset was more significant. The sudden change disrupted expectations, as many fans had already been anticipating the free preview. This situation has left both Yaman and his supporters disappointed.
