Bir Gece Masali

I'm Still reeling from the mesmerizing experience that is "Bir gece masali" This series had me hooked from the very start, and eagerly awaited each new episode every Tuesday. The reason for my obsession? The incomparable Burak Deniz, who brings Mahir to life with breathtaking perfection.

Burak Deniz's acting skills are truly top-notch. He masterfully portrays every emotion, from confusion and vulnerability to anger and joy. His performance is so convincing that I found myself fully invested in Mahir's journey.

The chemistry between Mahir and Canfeza is also undeniable, the stunning location.

It's not a bad turkish series, it just doesn't have an interesting core story. In fact, it doesn't have an overall plot. Probably because it's one of those sitcoms whose story revolves on family and its daily events and happenings, nothing else. It's either the writers cannot think of a solid story or the plan is really a per episode story, nothing much for the audience to be excited to hold on and wait for the next episode, no cliffhangers at the end of each episode. Also, though it's a situational comedy skit, nothing hilarious, very few funny moments. I'm not even interested watching the ML and FL - Mahir and Canfeza - aside from there isn't a connection between the two, they're boring. The love triangle of Ferman, Efsane and Sevda is a lot more interesting to watch. They're funny. Watch it if you're into sitcoms.

This is a modern fairytale drama, and I absolutely loved it, of course some characters are worse than others but the chemistry between Burak and su burcu is undeniable, you get captivated but this couple and the way they are written you just can't get enough of them together, their love is what makes this show so good, their dynamic and harmony is too good. Recommended to anyone who likes drama, action, crime, love and comedy, this series has got it all. The acting by all the actors is great. Yazgi and Burak really compliment each other in a way that will be remembered for a long time, well done.

Super entertaining drama set in modern Turkey featuring Canfeza and Mahir. Beautiful scenery, intrigue and twists in a fast paced romance between a police officer and the daughter of a local crook.

Each eposide keeps you wondering if the next mafia boss will successfully kidnap the heroine of the story and if Mahir will save the day once more. It is interesting to see how the culture clash between the generations plays a big part in the story. With their families and traditions, Boris and Selim, and the whole world against them, can Mahir and Canfeza have a happily ever after? Watch the next episode of this dreamy drama on ATV.

I'm writing this review after deciding I can't continue the series after episode 5. I would have stopped earlier but stayed on because I'm a fan of Burak Deniz. The things I like about the series is Burak's professional acting and the beautiful landscape. I like Su Burcu Coskun when she acted in Kardeslerim but I am just not getting her character in this series. Maybe it's because there no chemistry at all between her and Burak (I was wondering whether it's the age gap factor). Her acting is very earnest here. There are quite a number of side characters here as members of 3 families are introduced and also the bad guys. The thing is none of the side characters except for Mahir's police friend and Canfessa's girlfriend seem likeable and interesting. The plot is a mixture of revenge, honor marriage customs, family drama and betrayals. I realized that I could only finish episode 5 by fast forwarding a lot of- even romantic scenes between the ML and FL. It's just not worth my time anymore.
