Tufan (Giray Altınok) and Samet (Kerem Özdoğan) return to battle the soul-crushing monotony of adult life with their signature blend of chaotic wit and existential dread. Turkey’s favorite disaster duo stumbles through new misadventures—from failed business ventures and dating catastrophes to ill-fated family gatherings—turning mundane errands into epic farces. Created and written by the stars themselves, Var Bunlar masterfully weaponizes everyday Turkish absurdity into laugh-out-loud therapy.

This season cranks the chaos higher: Buket (Cansu Diktaş) amplifies the madness as their perpetually unimpressed confidante, while major Turkish guest stars (one per episode!) drop bombshells into their already crumbling realities. Expect cringe-worthy job interviews, disastrous holiday attempts, and the kind of friendship tests only true kankas can survive. Because when life gives you zeytins… throw them at your problems!

Var Bunlar Season 3 Cast

1. Giray Altınok as Tufan

Co-creator Giray Altınok embodies Tufan—the neurotic, overthinking half of the duo—with razor-sharp comedic timing and endearing vulnerability. Altınok’s Tufan is a masterpiece of anxious gestures and muttered catastrophizing, whether debating the ethics of simit hoarding or dissecting a yenge’s passive-aggressive baklava critique. His writing injects painfully relatable social satire into every spiral.

Altınok’s genius lies in balancing cringe with heart. Tufan’s disastrous attempts at self-improvement (yoga retreats gone wrong, doomed Duolingo German) mask a tender loyalty to Samet. His chemistry with Özdoğan fuels the show’s soul: two lost boys screaming into life’s void… then ordering dürüm to cope.

2. Kerem Özdoğan as Samet

Kerem Özdoğan’s Samet is the lovable agent of chaos—a human wrecking ball with inexplicable confidence and zero foresight. Özdoğan’s physical comedy shines as Samet faceplants through life, whether launching a doomed köfte truck or “fixing” Tufan’s love life via disastrous double dates. His writing mines hilarity from reckless optimism meeting harsh reality.

Beneath the buffoonery, Özdoğan layers Samet with unexpected warmth. His loyalty to Tufan is unwavering (if misguided), and his childlike awe at simit discounts or stray cats makes the character irresistibly human. A masterclass in turning a hot mess into a national treasure.

3. Cansu Diktaş as Buket

Cansu Diktaş returns as Buket, the duo’s brutally honest, eye-rolling anchor to sanity. Diktaş steals scenes with withering bakışlar and deadpan zingers that eviscerate Tufan and Samet’s schemes. Buket is the voice of reason… who occasionally enables their madness just to watch the fireworks.

Diktaş’s comedic precision turns Buket into an icon of millennial exhaustion. Whether dissecting Tufan’s dating apps over çay or dragging Samet’s latest get-rich-quick fail, she’s the relatable queen we crave—serving sarcasm with a side of secret affection for these beautiful disasters.
