.... watch Can Borcu, only if, there's no other more sensible turkish tv series available or you have plenty of time, otherwise, don't waste your precious time.

It's one of those series that is aimed for watching by bored grandmas and housewives. The story is like written by a bunch of high school kids for their literature or theater class about the obsession of a mistress in ruining the lives of her lover's wife, family and all the people around including her own son. There's too much ridiculous scenes.

Like most turkish tv series, there's an annoying central figure in this one though many of them, in fact. The grandmother who still lives with the family of her deceased son who cheated his wife. The kids whose role in this series is to prevent their widowed parents from having a relationship or getting married, all of them are annoying.

Acting is terrible from most, except perhaps from that actor playing the crazy guy Ferit, . Cinar and Yasemin- zero chemistry, that actor doesn't know how to act.

Main plot is not solid, nothing to arouse interest from viewers aside from few sublots per episode.

SHould've been 1 star but I gave it 2 stars just because I'm watching it and I have all the time in the world at the moment, and there's few good turkish TV this year.

From episodes 1 to that episode where Neco is about to unalive Noor wrapped in carpet and chain. This series could've ended there, that's the sweet spot - retribution, justice served!

But NO! Like several other Turkish TV series, they decided to inject ridicul0us subplot to extend the story into several more episodes. They made Civan lose his memory back to the time when Leyla was just a house cook and not his wife and they also decided that Leyla and the rest of the cast were prohibited to remind Civan about the current and real circumstance - that Leyla is his wife - what??? And instead call back the ex-girlfriend as that is the memory that he recalls. What?????

I have loved this series and excited waiting every episode UNTIL the memory loss episode ...... I lost interest now. It became funny, utterly silly, meaningless and ruined what was once an exciting Turkish TV series.

If I've written this review 2 - 3 weeks ago prior to the memory loss episode, I could've given it 10 stars, now it was reduced to 1.
