Till Death

The storyline is good. But because it's a Ramadan show (it needs to last for the 30 days of Ramadan), the pace is slow and the story is stretched to the max. All the actors speak in a soft manner all the time, which makes you want to fall asleep. Too melodramatic!! Violins throughout the 30ish hours of it!!

There's A LOT of smoking, all the time. It's disgusting how much every character smokes. And it's not particularly useful for the story of the characters identities. Mix of Lebanese and Syrian accent, which just makes it weird. Anyone watching this thinking this is a realistic depiction of Lebanese society, it's not! Maybe 60% accurate, not more.

Good aspects: 2 strong leading female roles and some minor female roles that are strong too. The visuals are beautiful and the camera angles are well thought. The colour themes and the decors are stunning.

I thought I was going to watch Megan Fox's til death but it turned out to be something completely different. And I have to admit that I was very impressed. I've never seen a Lebanese TV series before but this was incredible. The plot was quite straightforward but Very well acted, great locations, local culture and dialogue exchanges. The tension is well maintained with some good twists. Everyone really brings their characters to life. Not to mention a Gorgeous cast. The subs for me move quickly but I can get the gist of what's going on. The scenes are visually appealing and I hope Netflix picks this up because people need to see this. There's a lot of TV shows from Japan and Korea Netflix is picking up. They need to get this one of they haven't already.

I can't even begin to put into words how amazing this show is. Please, if you do not understand Arabic, use subtitles!! I would hate for anyone to miss out on such a great show just because they don't comprehend the language. The subtitles are spot on.

Asides from that, this show has you on the edge of your seat the whole time. A must watch, 100% recommend. 10/10.

Wow. This show is glamorous and luxe, and absolutely stunning in every way. I JUST LOVE the acting. High quality storyline, intriguing plot, and beautiful cast. It manages to weave hard-hitting storylines about the realities of Lebanon into a thrilling and unusual drama. The juxtaposition of rich and poor is astounding. Most of all, it is a portrayal of true love, and the truth of life that you can't choose who you love. The Arabs have a saying, "the heart wants what it wants". No matter what.

The two female leads, Reem and Sahar, complement each other amazingly and are played by incredibly talented actresses. Just a treat to watch, and the male lead, Hadi, has the most loving, heart-wrenching eyes you could ever imagine.

I will say that you have to watch season 2, it is more gritty and the plot gets very dark and twisted. It is worth seeing how the story weaves together and unravels. The story is passionate, tragic, intense, and speaks of great love, loyalty, war, betrayal and revenge.it is deeply human and speaks to the stories buried within all of our psyches.

Totally enjoyed the sentiments and story of Series 1. Settled back to watch the second series and I am now into a gangster series - slow, no plot, too many superfluous characters who can't act, wooden emotions by main cast and quite frankly wondering if I can go on any more. Am on episode 4. The cliff hanger at the end had me looking forward to this but seems like Lebanon is full of beautiful men surrounded by the prostitutes they would rather love than the other beautiful women around them. Can't see the reason for the attraction because the story never gave it to me. You kill my mother and I will still love you - really?
