Alef

After watching the 3 episodes ,I must say it does n't seem Turkish at all .So far there is mystery in every aspect of the story that makes you excited about what comes next .No weak woman ,no unnecessary love story .If you didn't hear the language ,you would think it is a good English tv series .Needless to say that the two actors playing the two detectives are really amazing .Very good so far and totally recommended .

No Spoiler just

I can see why this show is different after watching 3 ep First of all the show follow's the american Rule of design the story which is new in turkey as my experiance , clearly looks like the FX Show "Fargo" and many other mini series in our time

But this is not the only reason the cinematogrphy , acting , soundtracks , the good choices of Songs thats follow the tradtions of turkey

All of this Makes this show different and i should tell you that this Show is Good for Some people thats try to enter the turkish shows or they saw other bad shows from turkey like netflix's ones "the protector"

Very good try if alef complete in the same way

It's reminds me True Detective Season 1.There is a similar tone.

Alef is already one of the most serious works in Turkey because of the quality of acting,directing, dialogues,technical parts and perhaps most importantly cinematography,it is perfect and praiseworthy actually.There are not many series worldwide which offer this kind of a cinematography and detailed work.It is too early to say a certain thing about story but it is intriguing with a opening like this.This series is a co-production between fx and blutv.There is a huge potential in these kinda shows and it should be supported and expanded.I hope it gets the necessary attention.Have a good time everyone.

Just watched the first episode. The atmosphere, directing, actings, project design and all impressing. It gives a hope that's it's gonna be a milestone for Turkey show business. Can't wait the next episodes!
