The first Netflix series I could laugh while watching, and Cengiz Bozkurt was also great ...

'Shadow' is a hitman who was raised by, and now works for, Servet. One day he learns of his mentor's betrayal and goes on the run. With perfect timing a tailor, who owned a small shop, has died and his friends think Shadow is his long lost son. He moves into the shop and soon finds himself involved in the community's issues. Most serious of these being the pressure being put on them by a local crook hoping to develop the area.

I really enjoyed this series; for the most part it was a serious drama but there were a surprising number of comic moments. These comic moments are genuinely funny, often making me laugh out loud, and don't distract from more serious elements. There is some violence but it is neither excessively gory nor gratuitous. The cast does a fine job; most obviously Engin Öztürk, who plays 'Shadow'. The characters are nicely varied and fun to watch. The finale sets things up for another season; if it's made I'll certainly watch. Overall a really fun show which I'd certainly recommend.

These comments are based on watching the series in Turkish with English subtitles.

This is the perfect blend of crime, drama with a pinch of absurd comedy. Impressive charactherisation and progress, all the changes are not unobtrusive and supported by their past. Full of twists which none to fool the audience. Suprise jokes in between some of the most serious scenes can be excused (even they are great) due to fact that writer is the creator of some highly acclaimed absurd comedy shows and movies. Crime and its environment/setup not detailed well one can easily spot unrealistic scenes but focus is not the crime itself. This tale is about humans which do not have any control over it. Well deserves to be called the best in its genre.

The script neither surprises you nor gives you exactly what you expected. At some point it made me laugh out loud, what else could I ask for anyway. Watch it, you won't regret it.

This is one of the best TV shows I have watched. Actors have been chosen so perfectly for the roles. Every character has their own life story & struggles. Scenes are unexpected. You expect one thing but totally different thing happens The small cute neighborhood have people who are trying to overcome the challenges from their pasts too. The main character Golge did a great job as well. All actors were talented
