Gönül Dagi

Reflecting the anatolian lifestyle. If you want to learn about turkish culture and traditions, this is one of those series. You can see the values and care director put in scene. I strongly recommend you to watch at least 3 episodes. You will understand my point of view. I am a busy person and dont have much time. I also play video games on the wekeend. Since i have started watching this even tho it is too long for an episode, i stopped all other things and watching an episode daily now. This series became my habit and i even cried in some parts. Because you will definitely find something from yourself in this series.

This is a tv show which will show you the unseen side of Turkey, that can't be found in typical Istanbul based Turkish tv shows. It's not a comedy series but a romantic, familial, social and realistic drama series. It explains the characteristics of general human nature. This drama depicts the simple lifestyle of a loving environment of a small town in Anatolia, which is an ideal example of typical human life filled with ups and downs and their positive attitudes about all the situations they face in their everyday life. And there are some unparalleled humorous scenes as well. After all, it's not just a drama, it has already become a part of my heart❤❤

It's neither a comedy, nor a drama. Can put a big smile on your face easily, and possibly make tears come out only after few seconds. I believe the main reason behind that is feeling like you are living with those people, or wishing to live with them. It's that real. Because you can find many things in it from your life, or the life you dream to live. The connection between three cousins is really something to watch. And that doesn't mean they are perfect, they are just %100 natural. This stands for other people also, not only for them. I'm glad that there is such a series and i had chance to watch it. Hope it will continue for a long time.

It appeals to Anatolian and Mesopotamian cultures more. Of course, this feature is not the minus part of the series. Because although love is a feeling felt with the same organ all over the world, the styles of loving in cultures are very different. If you want to watch the series but cannot make sense of some of the things in the scenes, first of all, research the meaning of these things in Turkish and/or Islamic culture. Because it has such a finely crafted script that sometimes I have to go back to the dialogue from the previous scene to understand what happened in the scene when I got up to get tea and came back.

There are too many unstudied details in the show, every character is annoying in its way. The plot is highly agitated and not even close to presenting the reality in Anatolia. They exploit the feelings of the audience in every episode rather than using good cinematics or maybe a good story, nothing in this show has quality.
