The production we watched is far from flashy scenes and offers emotional and enjoyable moments from real life.
Were there boring scenes? Yes. But giving this a 1-star rating makes me question people's sanity or integrity.
The ones giving it 1 star are Turks with an inferiority complex.
At some points, the series spoils itself even before it begins, and someone in the comments didn't like that!
The series is set in a gloomy atmosphere, with death as its main theme, but they've brightened it with family, love, children, and a variety of emotional transitions.
If shot in Europe, it would've been a Golden Globe nominee.
Enjoy watching.

In my opinion, it was a series with a different perspective when looking at the history of Turkish series. We watched situations that were far from clichés. I only deducted 2 points. The musical elements were what bothered me the most. There are so many musicals that almost half of the movie is spent with clips. Other than that, a few episodes were very boring. The events are dragged on too long. It started to get even more boring after the second episode. These negativities are things that can happen in any series. It makes us Turks happy to see such things. Ahmet Kural is perfect for the lead role. I don't think anyone else could have portrayed the character of Baki so well. An extraordinary Turkish production that should be watched.
It is one of my favorite TV series right now. The story line is quite hearth touching and focusses man's disadvantaged life with a uncommon job. Musics at the end of each part too emotional paralel with the how harsh the situation. Each part follows a self development for the main character name is "Baki" and the way of the path such a unique for Turkish TV series that is also touches people hearth. Background sounds are too crystal clear also used to help you that emotional feelings with. I want to thank you to TABII and TRT to stream such a unforgettable TV series. I am very interested to see 2nd and even 3rd seasons of this TV series.
Best tv show i have ever watched. First 10 minutes you laugh every second. Last 10 minutes you cry every second. It is very emotional and touches your heart. Gassal means in islam when you die before they put the body under the ground a washer cleans the body and prepare for the funeral. All actors especialy Ahmet Kural put a very undisputed performance. Also the songs are amazing and matches the emotional scenes. The episodes are thirty minutes long. I finished the first season in one day and willing to watch season 2. Finally who has involved such an amazing show congratulations from my heart.
From the beginning of the series, the processing of the characters was transferred in depth, although it was passed quickly. I think the stories of all the characters in the series are complete. Season 2 will only harm this beauty. Sometimes beautiful things have to end in order to remain beautiful forever. If we analyse the character of Ahmet Kural, I guess everyone who suffers from loneliness has found a piece of themselves. People think that they live in a film in which their own life plays the leading role. Maybe that's why they always think that they will get rid of monotony, unhappiness and loneliness. There is a very beautiful saying that some people come to life only to suffer.
