Nursema is back on Kızılcık Şerbeti. The character, played by Ceren Yalazoğlu Karakoç, returns to the story in the episode airing on Show TV on the evening of Friday, October 30, 2026, according to reporting by Habertürk.
In that episode, a mysterious phone call reaching Ömer and Kıvılcım brings Nursema back together with her family. Habertürk reports that the reunion is written to deliver emotional moments.
The series is produced by Gold Film, with Faruk Turgut as producer, and airs on Show TV. Habertürk describes Nursema as one of the show's iconic characters.
Why it matters
Nursema's homecoming is the centerpiece of the evening's broadcast, and Habertürk frames it as a major reunion for the series. For viewers who followed the character's story, the episode resolves a thread the show left open.
Karakoç herself described the return as the completion of something unfinished. "It's as if I never left," she said, according to Habertürk. "There was a story left half-told. Let's say I've come back."
The actress said playing Nursema carries particular weight because of how closely the audience has followed the character. She credited viewers with staying with Nursema throughout and supporting her choices, and called the part one that any actor would want to play.
She summed up what the character has been through, and her comeback, in a single line: "I died and died and came back to life."
A mysterious call sets the reunion in motion
Habertürk's account places the mechanism of the return in a single plot device: an unexpected phone call to Ömer and Kıvılcım. The call leads to Nursema being restored to her family, and the episode is billed as an eventful one built around that moment.
The broadcaster's coverage does not detail who places the call or what else the episode contains. What is clear from the reporting is that the reunion is treated as the emotional anchor of the night rather than a background development.
A character the audience never let go of
Karakoç's remarks suggest that Nursema's absence was felt by the show's viewership, and that the character's popularity shaped how her return is being presented. She described the role as a gift for a performer, pointing to the loyalty of the audience as the reason.
Her comment that she feels she never left also signals how the production is positioning the comeback: not as a fresh introduction but as a continuation of a story the audience already knows. Habertürk's headline framing of a "great reunion" reflects the same emphasis.
The episode is scheduled for the October 30 broadcast slot on Show TV. Hürriyet's television listings for the same date also flag the episode, and Show TV's own promotion of the return has circulated alongside Habertürk's coverage.
Viewers who want to see how the call reaches Ömer and Kıvılcım, and how the family responds, will find out when the episode airs tonight on Show TV.
