Bab Al Haara

One of the most popular Arabic series taking place in the old Damascus during the French colonialism period. Beautiful and catchy script, superb execution and lots and lots of funny moments. It has everything: the beautiful old days and its melancholia, drama, action and plenty of twists to keep you wanting to see more and more. But above all, most importantly it keeps the spirit of old Syria (including old disappearing traditions and way of life) alive though these dark moments of the sad reality. I would love to see the next series (their status is under production) but given the current issues with Syria it's hard to expect anything to become reality. If you miss Syria, if you want to remember vividly the old and beautiful times, if you want to feel just a little bit how it would have been to live during your grandfather's time, go for it. You will not regret.

This series is just a waist of money and time, I expected more than that it's disgusting

Overall the show is concerning in it's depiction of women and never even utilized the plot to highlight that the treatment of women at the time was something horrible and immoral. Instead it glorifies toxic male behavior and writes it's female characters as weak and unrealistic.

The show is great overall especially the first 3 seasons. Their are some critics of the later seasons but the show is fun and intresting overall This show has received unfair ratings over its portal of women even though their are many strong female characters. But for some people if their is strong men in the show they get upset. Most bad reviews have unfair or out right false accusations. This show has good characters acting is wonderfully fill with stars from the syrian drama and comedy. Bab al hara is a great show with some faults like every thing else but overall it is great television series an arab classic.

Bad show . it very humiliating for women's . and it's stupid story .and nothing about it is true
