Kara Sevda

I started to watch it few months ago and shortly after a few first episodes it became a part of my daily life. I loved and followed and recommended it to every friend of mine because as an Iranian I related to many part of it culturally. It was well done and except a few minor (whys and how comes...), I truly hooked to this and it glued me to my monitor. I had my breakfasts, lunches and dinners for few months even in bed till 3 am on my tablet... do not need to say this was the longest tv series I have ever seen! I have to tell you this was my first Turkish series and I have to admit the way it ended in last minutes of last episodes (267) , was extremely disappointing, annoying and sadly with terrible impression!!! I expected after tremendous frustrations Emir must have had exploded and Kemal must have survived first if the director or writer of the last episode insisted to have minor changes in ending. The way it ended, gave me the feeling of my time is wasted, bribing and corupption wins at the end! It also brought misjudgment and trust in Turkish justice system. To be honest, just because of last episode and the way it was ended, I do not wish to watch any Turkish series for certain length of time! I do not know how much time I need to heal from the disappointment of the time I had spent watching this lovely series. It killed all the hope and struggle someone could wish when they fight for what they believe in: LOVE. I love to get response from the writer or director of ending episodes!

A lot of contradictions, exaggerations, and gaps in this work..Emir is not a god,Zeynep was not a lover she was a btch and a traitor,Kamal s family was so low,a heart breaking and terrible ending,life is already hard as it is the bad guys are winning couldn't you just let them lose in a TV series!...the most beautiful thing in Kara Sevda was Nihan..

OMG 74 episodes...too long...but remarkable acting of the trio. Music is excellent. Neslihan and ger daughter looked so pretty .... one can endlessly watch them with joy. I nicknamed my granddaughter Pammu after watching the serial.

Started watching this series recently and completely in awe ! How can anyone make such a long story flawless. It makes you laugh, cry and above all love every bit of it to an extent you start living those characters. Best part is story and characters are quite real and relatable with subtle and genuine emotions portrayed. Its not that such love stories were never made, but the way its made and presented makes it stand high. Hats off to the entire team - story writer, director, actors, and the people working behind the camera. If i have to describe it in two words - Sweet Addiction

I don't have enough words to recommend this Turkish show - 1st episode - it takes a while to get into it, but you will be captivated by the end of episode 2. Love all the characters in the show - Script writers have done an amazing job with this TV series - I hope it will go on to series 3 - we will see. Kemal and Nihan - have got so much chemistry together - it's hard to imagine that it's otherwise in real life - Kemal's acting skills - BRILLIANT. Emir is the one person in the show that you will either love or hate. He is a psychopath - I can't describe him in any other way. I think it's filmed in Istanbul - location and views are beautiful - I watch the show with English subtitles .
