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.

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.

As of someone who doesn't like arab TV shows at all, this one did it for me.

The suspense at the end of each episode made the whole experience much better.

The length of each is okay, as there was no actual boring part that I felt like skipping.

The storyline is so interesting, especially season 2's. The script is really well written. The vulgar expressions and slangs just caught my attention, and some are even funny.

I really like that this series shows the difference between poor/mid-range and rich families and characters.

Something else that was so smart of them is that they wrote the script based on the country's (Lebanon's) economic state at the time, and the problems that it caused.... The ending of season 3 could have been better, but that's okay if a 4th season is coming.

I really recommend this show for people who want a dark, thriller, drama, crime TV show.

As American to me to Lebanon several times, it one can't help but be struck by the beauty of it's people and love of life, in spite of the circumstances. This is true-life story of the wealthy, the poor, the governmental problems and Lebanese people's hope of getting me the most out of life in spite if it's corrupt government. The two seasons are about two girls that grow up as strong women trying to out live their desperate origins. The story demonstrates how difficult it is to simply earn a living and provide for their families and the corrupt who do anything to rise above the property. Acting, clothing and scenes are masterful. A little redundant in parts but overall a winner with actors who could give the Americans lessons.
