Edit: Was it necessary to make Derya the biggest braindead character of all series? It's so unbelievable, it's laughable. Why did she not phone the police when that evil buried Yonca? There was enough evidence right there and he would've been caught red-handed, but no, she had to try and solve things her way. I know the story has to continue, but really....? Make it more believable. This series is getting beyond ridiculous and Hançer's attitude is getting really boring. No sane person is so self-sacrificial. She actually doesn't love Cihan. This series has entered stupid-territory.

I wish I could write just one sentence.... I forwarded three quarters of each episode and still didn't miss anything. There is too much fluff that doesn't need to be there. And everything borders on the ridiculous.

I would've liked to ML & FL in a series with a bit more meat. They both have potential. I don't think the script gives them any opportunities. The ML can be soulful. The FL, in this series is too slow. The way she brushes her hair or cuts cheese or doesn't respond (her sister in-law has to tell her what to do all the time). It's like her brain doesn't work. It's too much. Did you hire her just for her beauty? Please give her a personality.

If only the storyline can be a little more interesting and the Directing be better...with not such long pauses and a better, more natural flow to it, it has potential.

The Turli series, I really like the actors, both juniors and seniors, almost all of them have good acting skills. In terms of production, it is also parallel to Western Serial production. But what is very worrying about the Turkish series is that in terms of story content, it is still very outdated. There are still many Turkish series that explore physical and mental abuse and violence against women, against wives, against daughters. As if to show that men are more valuable, smarter, more powerful than women. These are medieval themes that should have lost their relevance. Maybe the regeneration of authors in the Turkish film industry is absolutely necessary, old authors with old ideas must be replaced with young authors who are more creative and fresh.

Watched 1 hour of episode 1 and am disgusted over the acting, plot and situation. Where do scriptwriters come up with such plots with utter disrespect for values. The mother of a wealthy family manipulates the entire family with the sole purpose that the male lead who is his son produces a male heir. He is made to divorce his wife because of failure of birth of a child from their marriage, finds a poor girl and gets her married to his son with the promise to his ex wife that once a son is born by the new wife, the new wife will be divorced and the ex wife gets reunited with the male lead. The entire tone of the the 1 hour is haughty, stressful and cruel - so, you know what to expect of this series. Switch it off and avoid this!

I've finally finished episode 107 episodes of this series, and I can honestly say I regret wasting my time. I can't put myself through another 100 plus episodes of this nonsense. What started out as a somewhat decent plot quickly spiraled into the same recycled formula we've seen too many times: a rich, strong, successful man reduced to nothing by a weak and insufferable woman.

The acting across the board was flat and amateurish. The writing feels like it came from a twenty-year-old who mistakes strength in women for endless screaming, victim-playing, and running men in circles. The female lead is unbearable, selfish, manipulative, and completely unaccountable for her actions. Meanwhile, the male lead is stripped of all dignity, left groveling for someone who doesn't deserve it.

I thought Emanet was bad, but this one actually manages to top it. A complete disappointment.

I have never written a review for a series until today. I do not know what the screenwriters think about the audience. The writing especially for season 2 is very insulting to the audience. Season 1 was slow but better because we got to see the couple happy and together but season 2 has been a total chaos. The ex wife becomes the female lead and gets away with everything and the female lead and male lead becomes weak characters that cannot stand up for themselves. I feel so bad for the actors and I hope they get to feature in better projects where their talents would be recognized well. Gelin is a total mess, the series should be CANCELED!!
