Özet:

 This study aims to explore the unique dimensions of social reality in domestic sitcoms, one of the fundamental dynamics of television narrative, from a Zygmunt Bauman sociological perspective. According to Bauman, causal relationships and proximities are inherent characteristics of human existence. At the core of love lies uncertainty. What makes love temporary is the ideal intention that it cannot exist without it. The ultimate goal of love for each individual is the happiness of its object. The perfect model of imitating love is not to love in order to acquire something one has not had before, to give up the richness of ones own life, security, and sense of integrity. All loves should be like this. In this study, the Turkish TV series Avrupa Yakası, which was broadcast on ATV channel between 2004-2009, is examined. The series narrates the humorous story of the Sütçüoğlu family living in Nişantaşı and the employees of Avrupa Yakası. In this study, utilizing a sociological analysis method, the loves, emotional events, and gender relationships in the series are examined from Baumans perspective. Problems such as temporary relationships among characters in the liquid modern life of the modern era, distancing couples, the depreciation of love, and the impermanence of emotions are analyzed and interpreted in light of Baumans views on love. As a result, it has been observed that the series reflects the social and cultural dynamics of the phenomenon of love in society and likely tells the future direction of love in contemporary society.

 Bu çalışma, televizyon anlatısının temel dinamiklerinden birini oluşturan yerli durum komedilerinde sosyal gerçekliğin özgün boyutlarını Zygmunt Bauman sosyoloji perspektifinden ortaya koyma amacını taşımaktadır. Baumana göre nedensel ilişkiler, yakınlıklar veya akrabalıkların tümü insan varlığının özellikleridir. Aşkın özünde bir belirsizlik yatmaktadır. Sevgiyi geçici kılan şey, sevginin onsuz var olamayacağı ideal niyetindedir. Her bir özne için aşkın amacı, onun nesnesinin mutluluğudur. İnsanın sevgiyi taklit etmesinin mükemmel modeli şudur: Birini daha önce sahip olmadığı bir şeyi elde etmek için sevmemek, kişinin kendisine ait yaşamsal zenginliğinden, güvenlik duygusu ve bütünlük duygularından özgürce vazgeçmek. Bütün aşklar bu şekilde olmalıdır. Çalışmada Avrupa Yakası dizisi incelenmektedir. Avrupa Yakası, 2004 ila 2009 yılları arasında ATV kanalında yayınlanan sitcom türünde yerli televizyon dizisidir. Dizi Nişantaşında yaşayan Sütçüoğlu ailesi ve Avrupa Yakası dergisi çalışanlarının komik öyküsünü anlatmaktadır. Sosyolojik analiz yönteminin kullanıldığı çalışmada dizide yaşanan aşklar, duygusal olaylar, kadın erkek ilişkileri Zygmunt Baumanın sosyolojisi perspektifinden ele alınmıştır. Modern çağın getirdiği modern akışkan yaşam ortamında karakterler arasında yaşanan geçici ilişkiler, çiftlerin birbirinden uzaklaşması, aşkların değersizleşmesi, duyguların kalıcı olamaması gibi problemler Baumanın aşkı açımladığı görüşleri ile çözümlenmiş ve yorumlanmıştır. Sonuç olarak Avrupa Yakası dizisinin toplumda var olan aşk olgusunun sosyal ve kültürel dinamiklerini gösterdiği ve büyük olasılıkla da toplumun yaşanan modern aşklarda geleceği noktayı anlattığı görülmüştür.
