The wait is over! <\/p>\n

We can officially announce that the winner of 2019’s TV’s Top Leading Man is Can Yaman<\/strong>, of the Turkish romcom series Erkenci Kus<\/em>! <\/p>\n

The actor won in the final round against Supernatural<\/em> star Jensen Ackles<\/a><\/strong>, who had already won this poll (when it was previously called Alpha Male Madness) four times, so a big congrats to both fandoms. Fun fact: the majority of (the many, many, many) votes came from Spain, Italy, and Philippines, so this was a truly international effort. <\/p>\n

Yaman took to Instagram on Tuesday to thank fans for his victory. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Apparently I won the E! News TV Scoop TV’s Top Leading Man 2019 poll. It turns out I got some hell of a dedicated fans all over the world who pretty much made this win come true,” Yaman said in an Instagram video, noting that he got more than 90% of the votes in the final round “which is absolutely crazy.” <\/p>\n

He also notes correctly that this is the first time an actor from a non-English show has won this poll. <\/p>\n

“It’s such an honor for me and also for my country,” he says. “We should be taking pride in this accomplishment.” <\/p>\n

For the uninitiated, Erkenci Kus<\/em> (in English: Early Bird<\/em>) follows Sanem, a young girl with aspirations of becoming a writer, who “is forced by her parents to choose between an arranged marriage and finding a proper job. Rushing into a new job at an advertising company, she soon falls for her boss.” <\/p>\n

Yaman plays Can Divit, and Sanem is played by Demet Ozdemir<\/strong>. The series premiered June 26, 2018, and ended after 51 episodes earlier this month. The full series is available on Youtube<\/a> through the show’s official page, and it’s also extremely easy to find the show with English subtitles, which we highly recommend. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Congrats to Yaman and all of the fans who voted, and stay tuned for our next poll honoring TV’s most beloved actresses! <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
