Un fuerte aplauso

A magnificent work of Berkun Oya. What scares me the most is whether the translations in other languages will kill the spirit of the work, since the language in which this work was written is Turkish.

Because whether it's New York or Tokyo, Mecca or the Vatican, I want people who consume this work to have the same pleasure I do.

Criticism of daily life? Criticism of society? Political criticism? Self-criticism? Reproach criticism? Criticism of religions that deny God?

Oya held her pen both harshly against everyone and everything and equal to everyone and everything.

The cast and the behind-the-scenes team, who are at least as successful as Berkun Oya, have worked hard to make this work leave a unique taste in people's minds.

This is why I love Netflix ... If Oya had continued making films, he would not have been this free and he would not have been able to reach so many people.

I think the same thing after every Berkun Oya work; I wonder what his next project will be like...

Thank you Berkun... again and again.

I have never seen a TV-series like this before. Although I have been watching TV for more than 40 years, this is the first time I felt that I have to comment about a TV show.

Berkun Oya's writing is phenomenal. Sometimes, a diologue/monologue or a sentence makes you laugh first, then it makes you think, and question the life and the world. The language and symbols he uses are very poetic at times. Unfortunately, some part of that beauty will be lost in translation. In some scenes, I didn't know how to react such as when little Metin was reciting a poem of Einar Georg Einarsson after witnessing his parents fight.

Although the show's messages about parenthood, childhood, relationships, and existential questions are to some extent universal, the world Berkun Oya created speaks more directly to people who lived their childhood in the 1980s and 1990s or people who were parents in the same time period.

I am hoping that they don't make another season and lose the originality of the show at the expense of commercial success.

The world is a lie or the lie is itself (y)our 'world'. What more could Berkun Oya do to illustrate the 'fact'. In fact orange is the answer. Hence there is no question around.

Those who only dream during the day cannot wake up. Even if they wake up, they struggle very hard to defend their dreams.

Frankly, I always had a feeling of discomfort while watching it. Maybe the production's mind wanted it that way.

I think I'll watch it over and over again. After all, there is always a big story where the little story is too small.

Not to be missed for those who wish they could just sit back and watch something enjoyable. Super mind-blowing.

A must watch!

It describes the traumas experienced by the anxious-avoidant son of a codependent mother and an emotionally unavailable father.

The mother got married and had a kid in order not to be alone. Even though he is extremely unhappy, she cannot leave the marriage. She is too fond of his son. All of these facts make her codependent.

The mother cannot express her feelings to her husband because her husband is emotionally unavailable. That is probably why she created an identical partner in her mind with whom she can talk about her feelings easily making her feel relieved. The father's reaction to his son's song and bad skills in Math classes, etc. Also proves his emotional unavailability.

The boy develops an avoidant attachment style due to his parents' quarrels and the lack of a father-son relationship, and an anxious attachment style due to his mother's overly attached attitude towards him. His judgmental and patronizing attitude that led to his first breakup shows his avoidance side, his post-breakup regret and the fact that he fell apart in 8 hours after the breakup shows his anxious side. He exhibits a similar attitude in the encounter with his ex years later. Ultimately, he matures at a very early age as someone who can't belong anywhere.

I find it one of the greatest work in Turkish TV history. Although it is a dramatic story itself, they balanced it by adding absurd comedy elements. I laughed out loud from time to time, some scenes had cartoon-like characteristics.

It addresses both the life we live and the feeling of being trapped in life itself, but it does so in a very unconventional way. The acting is superb and it's a marvelous work. Another interesting point is that, considering the total duration of the series (approximately 6x25 minutes), it manages to achieve this in a way that feels like poetry. It's a separate achievement that it prompts so much thought in such a short amount of time. The music at the end of the episodes is also very fitting. Don't rush to move on to the next episode. I recommend the original language with subtitles. Unfortunately, dubbing doesn't convey the same emotion." 10/10.
