Shahrzad

Again with the family Again with a magnificent Persian series This is one of the best, Iranian series I have ever watched.

The best historical series in Iran. A romantic and exciting story with the right politics. Lasting and brilliant acting.

Shahrzad series is definitely one of the top Iranian TV series of all time, I have seen 14 episodes at the time of writing this review and have enjoyed every minutes of it.

Very well written scenario, you would be astonished by ups and downs of the story and how un-predictable it can get, smooth and wonderful act by all actors and actresses, lovely music and sound tracks, stage design is wonderful.

You would feel moments that you cannot blink and it gets you emotionally attached to the characters and the story that you can think of them for hours after watching each episode…

After a long time I watched a beautiful, inspiring Iranian TV series.

This is one of the best, and perhaps THE best Iranian series I have ever watched.

The story is absolutely stunning.

A very strong drama mixed with thrilling moments which bring you you an unforgettable experience.

The Cast have done their job almost perfectly, particularly main characters.

The costume design is very good.

Quality of film-making is exemplary.

Will make you shocked, compassionate and cry!

OMG can't tell more.

BTW. these are my points of view having a Persian-background.

Not sure if it appeal broad audience as much.

Nonetheless, highly recommended!

After Gharib's Story (2007), I consider this show as the best Iranian TV Show. Of course it has its weaknesses but the story is so well developed that the weaknesses can be ignored. The acting of all the main characters is great and most of all Shahab Hosseini and Taraneh Alidusti have portrayed their characters to perfection. Set decoration is good and custom design is great. But the dialogues are the ones that are noticeable. Dialogues are very close to the real dialect of people of that time and the actors speak them as if they are from that time and place. May be the reason I don't consider it as the best TV Show is because some actors/actresses are not really good and in some places the dialogues seem so cliché. But other than that, it's really great.
