I decided to give this series a shot and now that I've watched it, I have mixed feelings.
**What I liked:**
- The storyline is genuinely entertaining.
- Strong lead characters, especially Cemre and Cenk. They add a lot to the story.
- Happy ending (but be mindful it may leave you with a bittersweet feeling because the series should've ended better).
**What ruined the show:**
- Many scenes just didn't make any sense. They were added just to push the plot forward, force a love-storyline, and extend the series.
- The love storyline between the main characters was ruined in so many ways. It doesn't matter who you root for in the Cenk, Nedim, and Cemre love triangle, you will be absolutely unsatisfied with how things unfolded between them.
- Some characters' decisions didn't feel true to their established personalities, so their character development was stunted or reduced.
- Quite a few characters' arcs were unfairly resolved, specially Cenk's (Ozan Dolunay).
Final Thoughts: I recommend watching it because it's a good series overall. It has amazing performances, lots of drama, plot twists, memorable moments, dynamic scenes, and Cenk's character made it 100x worth watching!! He was the best.
