Any idea what's the fastest/easiest way to get to Bakirkoy from Uskudar.

Take the Bakırköy-Kadıköy seabus and hop the Kadıköy-Üsküdar dolmuş. Should take approximately 30 minutes.
I should ask if your destination in Bakırköy is nearer the seaside or the highway? It takes a bit of time to get from one side to the other.

BUS SERVICE FROM USKUDAR TO BAKIRKOY Thks Burbaco. Need from Uskudar to Bakirkoy. I know there's a seabus service from Kadikoy to Bakirkoy. The thing is is there a service after 6 to Bakirkoy.

if there is not, perhaps you can take a boat from uskudar to kabataş (in this direction there are some late) and after the tram in Kabataş, i think he goes till zeytinburnu or not far from bakirkoy- (sorry if Im not clear)

Yes, sheri, the option I suggested is not direct, but I still maintain it is the fastest/easiest way. No matter what you do (tram/bus/dolmuş) you are going to have to connect somewhere.
If you don't have to wait in line for the dolmuş and if traffic is average, it is approximately 30 minutes from Üsküdar to Bakırköy via the route mentioned above. Unless it's the middle of the night, you'd be hard pressed to drive there in the same.

Actually.... there used to be a sea bus that ran Uskudar to Bakirkoy (last year) but the times were soooo odd, and only something like 2 in the morning and 2 in the evening that I never tried it.
