Kral Kaybederse

This is the first time I've given a production 1 star, so it didn't hurt. Normally, considering the effort spent, I don't think any production deserves 1 star. But this is such a production that a 38-year-old woman was given the role of a 20-year-old university student. This much is now mocking the audience. It means "Let's shoot it, the audience will have to watch it anyway". I'm not talking about the simplicity of the script, the editing mistakes, and the bad acting. Even just for this poor casting choice, 1 star is given. How did Netflix accept such an ordinary project? I'm really surprised. I hope we watch better quality Turkish series from now on.

Kral Kaybederse (The Fall of the King) has quickly established itself as one of the most compelling Turkish dramas of 2025. Adapted from Dr. Gülseren Budayicioglu's powerful novel, the series offers a deeply psychological journey into themes of ego, vulnerability, and the slow erosion of power. At its heart is a haunting character study that keeps viewers emotionally invested from start to finish.

Leading the charge is Halit Ergenc, who delivers a career-defining performance as Kenan Baran - a man once at the top of his game, now struggling to hold onto control as his world quietly unravels. Ergenc masterfully conveys both the imposing presence of Kenan's former self and the fragility lurking beneath his surface. It's a nuanced, layered performance that brings real humanity to a character that could've easily been painted in black and white.

Supporting Ergenc is a phenomenal cast that adds richness and resonance to the storyline. Merve Dizdar (Fadi), Aslihan Gürbüz (Handan), and Nilperi Sahinkaya (Özlem) each bring complexity and emotional depth to their roles. Their interactions with Kenan not only shape the story's tension but reveal the intricacies of the relationships and personal histories at play.

Visually striking and thematically bold, Kral Kaybederse doesn't just tell a story - it dissects a psyche. With its blend of drama, emotional realism, and sharp character development, the series stands out not only as a faithful literary adaptation but as a standout on its own terms.

There may be differences between the book and the series. The pleasure of the cruise, the atmosphere, the acting and the music I think are great. This is my opinion that the participants and the ones who disagree. But it's not a 1 point series.

But Sedece doesn't buy Netflix in this series or watch, it's a complete head-drop series. I love the music and venues in the series and the characters' clothes are very harmonious and suitable for the atmosphere in every episodel. I think it would be better for all viewers to watch this series neutrally instead of watching it in a biased way and decide later.

'Fadiiiiiiiiiii...me' queen of the series! 'Fadi' means 'Savior' and whether this name was chosen by mistake or not, it is well fit name because this character saves her family and I believe will care for the character 'Kenan' at the end. 'Merve' delivers an outstanding performance since the series "Masumlar Apartmani". What a perfect role fit for her. This series 'Kral Kaybederse' either you'll fall in love with it, and enjoy every single episode or you don't -- It's that simple. Original beautiful series nothing been done like it before. It got a wonderful cast. 'Chapeau bas' to the actor 'Halit'.

I can't believe this series is on Netflix, it's the worst thing I have ever watched. A 50 years old woman is playing a university student. Bad casting, bad acting, bad directing, bad editing, bad scenario, everything is bad about this show! It's too long, boring, and meaningless dialogues. It's nothing but wasting time. I had a headache after watching the first episode

Netflix Turkiye does not produce good shows. You can find better producers and directors in Turkiye why do you pick these bad producers. It's a shame. If you dont know what to do, check out smaller streamers like Blutv or Gain, they produce better shows and movies.
