Hatirla Gönül

I am hooked on this show even though it was made in 2015. I just discovered it on Netflix. It is GREAT!!!

I loved this series and appreciated the fact that it wasn't as long as some of the other Turkish series I've seen recently on Netflix. The story line did seem rather improbable but I guess that a truly abusive husband with a psychopathic personality could be capable of the insane acts he committed in his determination to keep Gonul for himself. But wouldn't it be scary to get involved with such a man? Anyway there are other important reasons to watch this series and one of them is to ogle the fabulous good looks of a couple of the lead males. Yusuf is a dish but even more dishy I think is the lawyer, Hilmi. Furthermore it's always amusing to see the lifestyles of the ultra rich and this series gives a good insight into the lives of 'richer and richer'. Well worth seeing.

Can across this by accident and loved it. Only thing is that you can't walk away from the screen unless you understand Turkish. You have to stay and read, lol. Someone mentioned a season 2. Hope so ~ great acting.

Watch out, as whoever wrote this story has intimate knowledge of or experience with an abusive sociopathic relationship, either as a victim or a counselor. I had just watched another, my first, Turkish series and really enjoyed it, so I thought I would try another. This one was definitely "darker". At times it was really, really hard to sit through and gut wrenching. Great casting and acting, I wanted to smack the doctor (Tekin) more than once. I wanted to shake Gönül to her senses. I loved the screen times of Mahmood and Hilmi. The ending suggests perhaps a Series 2?

Pretty interesting drama. I found it on Netflix and decided to watch because it only had 38 episodes and it had a dysfunctional love story, which are always pretty good to watch. Overall, this drama was pretty good. It kept me watching, even though sometimes it was like a soap opera. Soap opera, meaning it wouldn't get to the point and would just waste time of facial expressions. The hero and heroine was pretty good looking and make a good pair. The main villian was a pretty good actor. Everytime he popped up on screen I was pretty be impressed because of his acting skills and because I couldn't really hate him. That may be because of his dysfunctional upbringing. I also enjoyed the secondary characters. They had good storylines and I was invested in seeing what happened to them.
