My first thought was that it was going to be a Turkish spin on iron fist or the arrow. Although there may be similarities on the surface it is far better than either of those two TV shows. The protector is not a martial arts expert or does he have superpowers. He does have objects that give him extra ordinary abilities. But he is backed up by a vast network of "loyal ones." Is purpose isn't to save the world or fight every villain in the street. The protector has one job and that is to fight for the city of Istanbul. That being said the scenery of the city is magnificent and the historic locations that it is filmed in is magnificent. Most of the filming must take place in the historic district of Istanbul. The writers have done an outstanding job of keeping the series secular in our country and the city that is 99% Muslim. Even when they are filming at Sultan Ahmed Mosque aka the Blue Mosque aka Hagia Sophia. It is only referred to as the magnificence. All in all it is well worth a watch whether it is in Turkish or English dubbed. If you do watch it in English put the subtitles on anyway there is slight variation in the dialogue versus the subtitles. It only adds to the store.
