Quotation of the Day for July 5, 2010"U.S. cultural imperialism is finished. Years ago we took reruns of `Dallas' and `The Young and the Restless'. Now Turkish screenwriters have learned to adapt these shows to local themes with Muslim storylines, Turkish production values have improved, and Asians and Eastern Europeans are buying Turkish series, not American or Brazilian or Mexican ones. They get the same cheating and the children out of wedlock and the incestuous affairs but with a Turkish sauce on top." - Sina Kologlu, television critic for the Milliyet newspaper in Turkey, commenting on the popularity of Turkish soap operas in much of the Arab world.
