Although a lot of the creativity of the images could use some value-add, I give high rating for the storyline and for the acting. The psychologist contributes a great aspect to this dark drama. Especially characters of Selena and Feride are excellent, Oscar worthy (or Turkish equivalent).

I love Turkish series. This is one of the best, although hard to watch. You can learn a lot about people, their souls and dark sides. Cast is great,music is fantastic. I only have the impression that many series are ended according to the expectation of majority of audience, which a bit ruined more realistic ending. I am not convinced that people change so easily (Sedat). What Harry did for Nalan is PRICELESS. I could even understand his cheating on Nalan. He needed confirmation and popularity, but I am absolutely sure he loved and will always Nalan, he only succumbed to a fleeting emotion. Love story between Nalan and Harry is so crammed with emotions, you can feel the love so intensely. Feride, who is personification of utmost evil, unfortunately has accomplices even if they are involuntary. Is it possible that child abuse is tolerated and unseen to such extent for so many years???Also arrogancy and confidence given by money is well-described. A great array of characters. Overall-this is not a superficial story, but one which leaves you with many questions on human nature.

This girls is not a hero, she is a door mat! I am tired to see her crying and crying and willingly submitting to an abusive grand mother. It is not real life! Too many lies and too many stupid people. The only smart ones are the bad oes and they are winning in every episode, this is boring.

I stream numerous Turkish Series via internet/Turkish website offering subtitles a number of them are not worth watching but this series is so enjoyable for it's dark underbelly, sociopath characters all circling around the patient so accomplished sweet natured Nalan whose ideal husband Sedat is not worth a fleeting glance which she is slowly realising.

Burcu Biricik is brilliant as she is in everything I have seen with her performing. One of the best Turkish actresses.

To answer query below the reason the wealthy father doesn't paint the house is obvious he also has the butler count out the olives and cheese for all for breakfast he is a Scrooge!

My mantra is to loose at all series made/produced by Onur Gavanatman (excuse spelling) cannot go wrong.

This series is supposed to be based on a novel that is based in real life story but the depiction in the series has gone to the extreme.

The probability that all the scenes in this series happening in real life is very slim.

Too unbelievable for grown up adults to be treated as little kids.

Too unbelievable for grown ups to be watched my parents or grand parents in all their daily steps and actions.

Too unbelievable for a grand parent to be listening all the time with her ear on the door of a married couple to make sure they are love-making, and getting inside their room almost all the time to zero privacy.

Too unbelievable that the old lady is forcefully commanding everyone around her even those unrelated to her. What is she? That powerful? One hand blow and she'll die.

This series has too much immorality and impossibilities.

The family are trying to portray a clean reputation but in reality there are too much corruption, dishonesty, perversion and indecency.

Up to episode 58, it's ok, not good but ok. Past that, it's repetitive and unbearable to watch.

It's like Addams Family on drama.
