Bir Ada Masali

I don't want to rate this series because it is impossible to rate it. Why? The series is not the same at the beginning and at the end. The Turkish series industry is so particular that the writers change according to the mood of the producers and the opinion of some Turkish viewers who determine the ratings. The opinion of international viewers does not count; however, the success of Turkish series is determined by their sale abroad. A policy without logic, unfair.

The series ended about a month ago, and, until today, I can't calm my anger. The first ten episodes are wonderful, fabulous, extraordinary. The first nine episodes were written by two talented screenwriters: Yesim Citak and Yelda Eroglu. Then, two other writers joined the team from the third episode: Dilek Iyigün and Emine Yildirim. An excellent team. The title of the series, The Island Fairy Tale, tells the story, in a truly wonderful way, of two opposing characters who meet each other: Poyraz, whose name means the North Wind, and Haziran, which translates to the month of June. Names that are not chosen randomly, each of them referring to an emblematic symbol of their personality: the moon and the sun. A special encounter, announced from the beginning as an expectation, a rendezvous: the much awaited eclipse.

In the first nine episodes, everything is told in a deep, subtle, symbolic way; the whole atmosphere of the series recalls the universe and the codes of the fairy tale, with a praise for the beautiful, the particular link which binds us with nature whose secret language is deciphered, heard, only by those who take the time to see it, to listen to it. People like Poyraz, an introverted character, a photographer, a lover of nature and its language. Haziran, a pure city dweller, learns, thanks to Poyraz, to speak this particular language, to appreciate nature and beauty. Together, they reinvent a new, a particular language. Haziran is also the sun that will illuminate Poyraz's life, marked by a dark, traumatic childhood, a traumatic childhood, a story that connects them.

The feelings, the emotions that the viewer feels are rich, endless, indescribable. Also, the chemistry between Alp Navruz, Poyraz, and Ayça Aysin Turan, Haziran, is so extraordinary that it seems that between them there is also a silent, secret language; another dialogue takes place between them, of which they are the only ones to decipher its meaning.

I was so impressed by the beauty, the depth, the richness of the series, that I opened a twitter account, my first social media account, to write several articles about the series, in English, while my native language is French.

Unfortunately, the producers, AY Yapim, supposedly one of the best production company in Turkey, made the decision to change the writers from episode ten, replaced by Aksel Bonfil, a screenwriter who has nothing to do with the initial project, which is unfamiliar with the magical world of the series. There will still be a few acceptable episodes, even quite good, but far from the usual quality. Then, as soon as the series was sold overseas, Ay Yapim abandoned the series altogether, especially since they had several other projects pending.

Finally, from episode 20, I think, I'm not sure since I stopped watching the series, Aksel Bonfil was again replaced by inexperienced screenwriters, without talent, without any knowledge of the characters , of the series, writers of the production company Ay Yapim.

The ending was horrible, without any quality, so disappointing. The actors no longer had a stylist, a makeup artist; the clothes of the main character, so elegant at first, have become very poor quality, cheap. All the money from the series was spent to fund Ay Yapim's new series. The main characters hardly had any more screen presence time, why? The series has become the opportunity for Ay Yapim to make tests, to highlight other actors, playing the role of secondary characters, so that they are cast in other series. Besides, two of them, before the end of the series, thanks to the series, were immediately cast for another series.

Turkish series are excellent; unfortunately, because of this outdated, obsolete, ineffective policy, many series, excellent at the beginning, become less good, often different, bad, carried out superficially, hastily at the end.

A lot of viewers like me feel a great frustration, an anger, as the writers change, the series suddenly stop, forcing new writers to complete a story that is not theirs, of which they are not the original authors. No one can write another's story.

The lack of respect towards the actors, the viewers is really unacceptable. Fox channel in Turkey, for example, stopped several series overnight; the channel got rid of these series, of the actors, of a whole team like used, useless handkerchiefs.

In the era of digital platforms, the channels need to change their policies before it is too late.

One of my favorite new shows...lots of chemistry between main characters and the building on the secondary character's relationships are starting to get interesting also! Love the mixture of drama, comedy and romance!!!

The storyline is different and captivating not like the mundane stories where the hero is of higher superiority. And the actors fit the characters perfectly. The ambience and the colourful atmosphere is unforgettable and breathtaking. This is a 10/10 series.

They are so cute togetherr and the stroyline is so goodd.

I personally felt so pleased to watch such a wonderful dizi like Ada Masali. I have watched many of the with almost same plots and same characters, it became so monotonous. I wanted something different, something exotic, something pleasing and yes I found all these in this series. Away from the hustles of city Istanbul and the usual office romance, this is more soothing and calms your mind. I would recommend this series to anyone and everyone!!Story is also nice with beautiful bunch of talented artists who does their job well. I am sure you wont be disappointed but more delighted and contended to watch it! So why wait, start watching now!
