ALBAWABA - Aynadaki Yabancı ends after low ratings shape producers’ decision.
The Turkish TV show Aynadaki Yabancı is ending early. The producers have chosen that the seventh episode will be the last one. The producers made this decision due to the show's recent broadcasts not attracting as many viewers as anticipated.
The show, which started earlier this season, tells a powerful and emotional story about who we are, what we know, and how the past affects our lives now. The main plot is about people who start to doubt everything they think they know about themselves and the people around them. When secret truths come to light, relationships change and emotional fights get worse.

When Aynadaki Yabancı first came out, it got a lot of attention because of its strong visual style and story that was focused on the characters. The show's advertisements emphasized mystery and emotional depth. Even so, the show had a difficult time attracting a steady crowd every week. Ratings kept going down instead of up, which caused people to talk about the show's future.
At first, there were plans for the story to go on for about 12 parts. During that time period, the writers planned to implement several plot points and character changes. However, the numbers did not meet expectations, leading to the story's shortening. The objective is to finish the main plot without making the show run for longer.
Production teams and networks often look at how viewers react to new shows. When a show doesn't get as many people as planned, its ability to stay in business becomes a major concern. If you keep making things under these conditions, you might lose even more. The producers and the channel mutually agreed that stopping the show at episode 7 was the best choice in this case.
The main story will still have a conclusion in the last show. The framework has been changed by the writers to make sure that the main emotional arcs are finished.
Thanks to its early finish, Aynadaki Yabancı is now one of many short-run dramas that end quickly when viewers don't grow as planned. The show will soon air its seventh and final episode.
