One of the best series in 2018 lineup of #TurkishTV. Pilot was very impressive. Alina Boz as Azra needs special mention. She's amazing. Hope fans like this series and it doesn't get canceled.

Good But...

Warning: Spoilers
This Turkish series in general is good the theme is good and the general
storyline is good along with the music. The cast and characters are excellent
with emphasis on traditional and universal values such as fate, good fortune
and circumstance.
but...
The series credits are slightly over the top and it has some American elements to it that are not traditionally Turkish such as lifestyle, presentation and down to the very cars they drive. The names of the characters are also not customary enough for them to be appreciated ( for example to suit their characters I think Cenk should of been called Timur and Azra Emine) The scenes in which the story evolves are too circumstantial for it to be believable. It can drag too much like a soap rather then a proper Drama given the rich literature of the Middle East and evolves too much in to a soap and finally one season would off been sufficient were by the story just stuck to the point and was executed more like a proper drama.
For the plot and for the story too work sufficiently I think it should have centrally focused on Cansu on being reunited with her father and Azra having a leading role as her right hand girl altering but improving the other elements of the series. The ending could of been Cansu marrying Cenk and Azra marrying Tariq or it being a direct but Turkish style copy of the Korean drama shining inheritance which it is based on rather then a loose but extended copy of it.

Season 1 is excellent 10/10. Very meaningful life stories, easy to relate too. Fantastic cast and you don't get bored from watching it. Bravo!
However Season 2 is slow and story is boring keeps on dragging to next episode and so on. 7/10.

An Exact Copy Of an old Korean Drama

Completely irrational
easobh20 August 2023
A series of irrational events handled by very strange reactions from the characters.
You just can't fathom most of the life decisions of the characters.
The director is obsessed with the "almost happening" scenes and lame excuses are usually used to hide the truth or to prevent the unraveling of conspiracies, I understand if it happens once or twice but from the consistent recurring of these scenes you easily can predict the result and you lose interest in the suspense of the scene.
Nothing happens from the first time, a character has to pass by an important evidence that can help his distress at least two time before he finds the truth.
Don't start watching if you are a normal, sane, logical and smart human being.

Waste of time
namfd-1479516 February 2022
Omg what a boring series very long, this series should have been like 20episodes it could have been very interesting a lot of wasting time and a lot of people who were unnecessary there
The crown goes to Feride she is the best actress in this series i hope people can learn from her
Chenk is not a good actor i seen another Series same thing no emotions, always serious, he always thinks his right, he never finish conversation always walks away he don't even know how to act in love very boring man
Melis was there for no reason 90% of her acting she is crying
Kadir was another one waste of time
Sumra she is poisonous she is not human she like to c pain on others how can they make such a series with a bad person like her and all of them go ahead with her threats waste of time, whenever they show her seen I can't stand it i just forward it disgusting i don't even know how to dress up, she was punished at the end which was useless, the background music was very loud.
Fascinating

What an amazing drama? I liked it very much. It's full of wisdoms and precious lessons in life. I think it's one of the best turkish dramas in the last five years. It makes u sometimes laugh and other times cry. Wonderful performance from all staff especially the director.
Thanks a lot
Disappointed due to lack of English subtitles
jgibson-738215 October 2021
Thoroughly got into season 1... Loved everything about this series until all of a sudden no more translations. Would have loved to see it to the end, but watching without English subtitles was just too hard. I gave it 9/10 because up to episode 36 I was rapt! Love Turkish series and watching from Australia!
Disappointed

Enjoyed.......and falling in love with the main character forever.
