Why Was “Love and Tears” Not Aired This Week? Has It Been Canceled or Just Delayed?
Fans of Love and Tears on ATV, starring Hande Erçel and Barış Arduç, were surprised when the new episode didn’t appear in this week’s schedule. This led to speculation that the show had ended or been canceled.
However, producers confirmed that the series is only taking a one-week break due to internal production changes and will return next week with a new episode.
The Real Reason Behind the Delay
According to reports, scriptwriter Dilara Pamuk left the project after Episode 3, creating temporary disruption in the writing process. Two recent episodes were written by a temporary team, and filming was paused to form a new writers’ group and revise parts of the storyline.
No New Episode Tonight
Due to these adjustments, there will be no new episode tonight. Instead, ATV will air a special episode featuring behind-the-scenes footage and exclusive interviews with the cast.
Cancellation Rumors Denied
Adapted from the Korean hit Queen of Tears, the show has attracted strong interest abroad despite lower-than-expected domestic ratings. The production company officially denied rumors of a finale, confirming the show will continue.
New Episode Date Announced
Producers confirmed that Love and Tears will return on Friday, October 31. The show’s official account posted:
“Join us for a brand-new episode full of surprises on Friday, October 31 at 8:00 PM on ATV.”
The series will continue without cancellation, simply resuming after a brief one-week pause.
