This really starts off strong. Especially the first episode is something to behold. And in general this is well written and acted too. There is drama, there is mystery, there are a few twists and turns (even after all is over - sort of). But it does get a bit repetetive towards the end and there are certain soap opera elements that may annoy some viewers.

Again, that may sound like nitpicking to some, I'm just keeping it real. Because this is good, this will strike a chord with people who experienced similar family circumstances and it does touch everyone with believe in their family in general too. Characters are flawed but they have to. It is life after all - and annoying things that should be different are part of it ...

Innocent is truly a gem and it immediately succeeds in characters,scenes, twists etc. from the very beginning. It is a story gripping you initially and never letting you at the end of each episode. The script is totally convincing and intriguing and so is the cast. I really loved the tone and mood of the series. I believe one would enjoy the music too. The acting of great actor Haluk Yavuzer adds depths to the show. All in all, I would highly recommend this TV series to everyone looking for something new, genuine and captivating.

Wow. I was blown away. The brilliant acting, the unique at times horrifying storyline, the editing and the natural flow between the scenes, the unusual beautiful music and a whole lot more. It gave me the feeling of watching a Nordic Noir production and maybe that was the director's aim.

THANK GOD there was no sign of over-done actors and actresses, endless boring flashbacks, soapy unreal storyline that drags on in hundreds of episodes and constant over-dramatization with annoying music in the background which basically seems to sum up most of Turkish TV shows.

This for me ranks high up there with the likes of Behzat C although there are differences. Finally, the great Turkish talent is being used to its full potential and in something quite different.

I highly recommend this series to anyone Turkish or otherwise interested in a high quality psychological crime drama/mystery with an engaging storyline which keeps you interested to the end.

If you are a fan of "Leyla ile Mecnun" or "Behzat Ç.", this is at their quality scale as in acting and scenario. Haluk Bilginer is a huge actor, one must be remembered as a legend. Serkan Keskin, Okan Yalabık, Ali Atay, Nur Sürer and the other members of the show are brilliant and spectacular also. The event flow of the show is not linear; it focuses on the character development rather than the events themselves. It is based on a theater play called "Bayrak (Flag)" which the scenarist of this show wrote and adapted it for TV. Foreign people can easily watch and enjoy also; because it is an universal story about human relationships, human mind, love, neglect, crime and memories. I suggest this show to anyone who wants to spend quality time and take lessons from a good story.

A well respected retired police chief has spent his career chasing and catching psychopaths, sociopaths, murderers and thieves. Little does he know that his sons are no different than the people he has chased his entire life. The plot is very well done and takes you on a twisted psychological journey in the same manner as a Hitchcock thriller. Pay attention from beginning to the end when it all falls into place...
