    Inconsistent Characters

    I can overlook most things about this series, but the one thing that frustrates me the most is the inconsistent writing for the characters. Every character goes back and forth between bad and good to the point that you just about don't care about any of them. Nothing, and I mean nothing, is ever resolved so that is just poor plot writing. This show could be the greatest. It has everything it needs: beautiful cinematography, beautiful actors with great skill, obviously a huge budget, etc. However, the writing is the weakest link. It is just not satisfying and I find myself losing interest every episode.

    Getting Worse each episode but if you like soap it's ok

    Totally ok to watch when you have nothing else to watch or just have it on the background while you clean up your house but wow the episodes just keep getting worse and worse! Who idiot of a film director or writer thinks that it is based on true story? Yes, maybe it's true that people drink coffee or go to clubs. And what happens to these two others who have already given a rating to the series as soon as episode 1 came out? Monkeys. Feels like the only ones we're watching are two bipolar idiots who don't understand and the families are so full of drama, the father above reacts, the mother below reacts, I don't understand a damn thing, but as I said, those who like soap, go for it! Im dropping my rating down to 2 and good luck with the next episodes.

    It feels like the writers have no storyline keeps getting worse just pleasing the audience

    Started very good , but the writers keep unfinishing stuff forgetting abt the story line like tye main character had smth they kept 4 episodes focusing on fhis later its as if it vanished Bringing more actors to the drama pushing reasons to make the new actors into the drama to make the series ratings upward without any consideration to the main storyline

    Forgetting they have fo write scenarios to the other actors it feels like they write every episode and they are in a rush without thinking abt the series.

    Some stories in the series is uncompleted and tgen they shift to another i dont recommeded too boring with no clear storyline.

    I don't know what the writer is thinking writing this garbage

    First of all let me say if you wanna watch it for the 'based on true story thing ' you're just wasting your time , the writer kicked off the main story and decided to form a whole new one which is contradicting the previous facts .

    I started this series because of Afra and çetin tekindor , the story's description drew me in further too . But unfortunately this drama isn't really worth watching .

    The reason why it started well is because the script was changed multiple times in order to fit cagatay ulusoy since he wasn't impressed by the scenario before he turned down the offer , which gave it an interesting premise , then it went straight to the dustbin .

    This show is a rollercoaster but not in a good sense , it went from a drama dizi to a fantasy lala land to a mafia series , every single episode feels like it's from a completely different show , dropped storylines, forgotten plot points , so many plot holes that even if you try to fill it you will continue to sink , the action scenes are so unrealistic that's just become ridiculous , unnecessary comedy , repititive tiring dialogues that caused a headache , a bunch of crazy men persecuting doormat women in humiliation feast , new characters being added when there are already characters that need more focus and screen time .

    The ML is a stubborn 10 years old nd the most useless character sigh , he has nothing to do than being jobless nd living off his grandfather's money , chasing women nd cheating on his wife all the time .

    The FL is also sickening to watch , she has no dignity , the ML asked her ex about her virg@nity , forbade her to study , cheating on her and all of a sudden , she realized how much she loves him .

    The side characters are neglected , the story is only revolving about ML & FL fights , and the obsession of the ML with the Mistress , this is all what you gonna watch in the whole 2 hours of each episode .

    The show is carried mostly by the FL's violent father with his impeccable acting skills .

    I don't know what the writer is smoking but it seems like he's copying a bunch of stories off of Wattpad .

    Such a waste of good talented actors.

    Are we going backwards as a society?

    I thought patience would be enough to keep me watching, but this is too much. It's very repititive, regressive & degrading for women. It can't be a love story. I would've kept watching if the aim was to show how Seyran escapes these houses of abuse when all is done & said, but no. But it's romance? He gaslights her, abuses her & what not, but she just stays silent, falls in love & forgives? She says she won't let him trample up on her, but it's already 39th episode. It's like she has to stay with him because the screenwriters say so?? It's too traumatic, even for someone used to true crime!!!!
