It first started to air on Mega Chile for four days a week in a prime-time slot from Sunday through Wednesday. It became an immediate leader in the prime-time ratings and became the most successful foreign series in the history of the country. This opened other markets in Latin America and now, we are very happy to announce that 1001 Nights has moved into Argentina, Brazil and Peru after Chile, Uruguay, Colombia and U.S. Hispanic.
I saw a news today that Armenian community in Latin America are angry with this drama and they are campaigning to stop the airing.
I never watched 1001 gece. I just wonder if there are any anti-armenian content in that series ? Why are they against this ? Any specific reason apart from its being Turkish tv series ?
