Un fuerte aplauso

I saw the first 3 episodes in one row. It's very beautiful how the series mixes comedy with drama. Mixing inner selves with reality has very novel solutions. It deals with a long period. And it suits it very well.

It can be slow for someone who trained in today's series but the slowness always pays off.

So I will continue to watch. And it's playing with the language. Very psychological. But always breaks it with humor you never know if it is real. It's a dream or just someone imagining it, or some inner voice.

I recommend it to people who like more artistic movies and series. It could have been a 3-hour movie.

I have never seen a TV-series like this before. Although I have been watching TV for more than 40 years, this is the first time I felt that I have to comment about a TV show.

Berkun Oya's writing is phenomenal. Sometimes, a diologue/monologue or a sentence makes you laugh first, then it makes you think, and question the life and the world. The language and symbols he uses are very poetic at times. Unfortunately, some part of that beauty will be lost in translation. In some scenes, I didn't know how to react such as when little Metin was reciting a poem of Einar Georg Einarsson after witnessing his parents fight.

Although the show's messages about parenthood, childhood, relationships, and existential questions are to some extent universal, the world Berkun Oya created speaks more directly to people who lived their childhood in the 1980s and 1990s or people who were parents in the same time period.

I am hoping that they don't make another season and lose the originality of the show at the expense of commercial success.

Berkun Oya strikes back! A special tribute and masterpiece from 2024 to the plastic arts adventure of mankind! Needless to praise how details are attentively studied and executed: From light to objects, their positions, orientation!

Plasticity of script is strongly woven with improvise-like loaded syntax. All lead characters' phases and speech freedom is recognized. 'Flow' is felt by hearth. In my humble amateur (audience only) opinion, storytelling with absurdity is original and catching! End of 5th episode final is the zest of such climax! A frame by frame thoughtful execution mesmerized me as if an ecstatic joy is met! All five dimensions are devised with a chilling virtuosity! I am honored and lucky to track this teams' work!

Therefore a very strong continues round of applause for such an exceptional work! That is/was/will rarely visit digital platforms.

A magnificent work of Berkun Oya. What scares me the most is whether the translations in other languages will kill the spirit of the work, since the language in which this work was written is Turkish.

Because whether it's New York or Tokyo, Mecca or the Vatican, I want people who consume this work to have the same pleasure I do.

Criticism of daily life? Criticism of society? Political criticism? Self-criticism? Reproach criticism? Criticism of religions that deny God?

Oya held her pen both harshly against everyone and everything and equal to everyone and everything.

The cast and the behind-the-scenes team, who are at least as successful as Berkun Oya, have worked hard to make this work leave a unique taste in people's minds.

This is why I love Netflix ... If Oya had continued making films, he would not have been this free and he would not have been able to reach so many people.

I think the same thing after every Berkun Oya work; I wonder what his next project will be like...

Thank you Berkun... again and again.

It describes the traumas experienced by the anxious-avoidant son of a codependent mother and an emotionally unavailable father.

The mother got married and had a kid in order not to be alone. Even though he is extremely unhappy, she cannot leave the marriage. She is too fond of his son. All of these facts make her codependent.

The mother cannot express her feelings to her husband because her husband is emotionally unavailable. That is probably why she created an identical partner in her mind with whom she can talk about her feelings easily making her feel relieved. The father's reaction to his son's song and bad skills in Math classes, etc. Also proves his emotional unavailability.

The boy develops an avoidant attachment style due to his parents' quarrels and the lack of a father-son relationship, and an anxious attachment style due to his mother's overly attached attitude towards him. His judgmental and patronizing attitude that led to his first breakup shows his avoidance side, his post-breakup regret and the fact that he fell apart in 8 hours after the breakup shows his anxious side. He exhibits a similar attitude in the encounter with his ex years later. Ultimately, he matures at a very early age as someone who can't belong anywhere.

I find it one of the greatest work in Turkish TV history. Although it is a dramatic story itself, they balanced it by adding absurd comedy elements. I laughed out loud from time to time, some scenes had cartoon-like characteristics.
