Love Bird

Calikusu (Love Bird) is a dramatic serial showing the growth of love between two cousins in Turkey during the Ottoman Empire at the beginning of the last century. The sets and costumes are richly detailed and so beautiful. I adore the music and THANK YOU to the translators and the casting. The story is set in the wealthy home of Feride's aunt and uncle. Young Feride is tragically orphaned as a young girl and is brought up by her loving aunt and uncle where she slowly falls in love with her attractive, kind, and humorous cousin. Their relationship grows with the tumultuous family history. I have enjoyed the journey, the false identities, the youthful games, the colorful parties, the family squabbles. LOVED IT!

i don't know if i l have this opinion because of I'm actually Turkish but i love this show. i really love this two: burak and fahriye they are great couple and have this amazing energy when they are together. this show represent our culture back those ottoman empire's day. deride is stubborn innocent, hard on the outside but soft in the inside kind of girl and kamran (not kamuran like it misspelled in here) is a kind, passionate boy who, at the beginning, was with neriman but when time passes by he get to know about deride and loves what he learns. actors and actresses in this show are very talented. i think burak and fahriye are stunning couple who looks good together and i love that fahriye can cry without a movement in her face and when burak smile his eyes shine with joy. this is one of my favourite shows and it certainly is my favorite Turkish TV series. you should watch it if you can cause it's amazing

I LOVE this show LoveBird Calikusu, I am Australian from Australia and I absolutely love this show I don't want it to end, I am just now watching the last 2 episodes and will be up to episode 72 my questions is. what happens after this? Will the show continue? is the show over? anyone know? I do pray it continues!!

This is my first review ever, but I have made extra effort to do it as I have never experienced such a lasting and lingering impact on me from watching a drama.

Hats off to the directors for the fresh take on a classic story. And deep respect for the actors, especially Burak (Kamran) and Fahriye(Calikusu) for bringing to us their exceptional on-screen romance. The sets, the costumes, the Turkish traditions that are portrayed have made me fall in love with this culture.

I have watched many western and eastern romantic movies & serials but none had this lingering and wanting-to-see-more affect than this serial.

Thank you Netflix for bringing this serial to US. What a great way to help us understand other cultures and see the beauty in them.

This series is so good!! You will not be ab;e to do anything else. I am American and watched this series with subtitles on Netflix and loved it. The two main Characters capture you into to their lives and hold you intensified and emotionally on edge. Bravo, Bravo! My only complaint is I wanted more... the supporting cast was wonderful too!! The writing is so good with many phrases I will carry with me in my life. Each character was fully developed and realized. Okay their were times I needed the main characters to just have time to be happy and I had wished I had gotten more of them at the end but that was because I felt like i lived these lives with them. I think this series represents the Muslim culture beautifully too!
