Le Protecteur d'Istanbul

The series was very good. However, I think they would´ve done a great 5th season if Hakan would have turned an evil immortal as Faysal as a cliffhanger and then, on the 5th. season, Zeynep could have help him turning him back to good and then kill Faysal. The missed the chance for a great 5th season.

I liked season 1, it was original and different. I liked the characters, and the story. I enjoyed watching it and was usually staying up later than I should binge watching this show.

Then there was the end of season 1, where the bad decisions started being made. Let's let the bad guy live, let's make deals, blah, blah, blah. Ok, so they wanted to set up something for season 2. Fair enough, but they should have just let the show end after season 1. Kill the bad guy, end the show. Good stuff.

But no.... Then there was season 2. Bad decision after bad decision, bad plot twists and bad story in general. Don't drink and write. Ok?

Season 3 didn't get much better. I spent most of my time questioning why I was still watching this show. I zoned out somewhere in the last episode several times and ended up watching it over 3 days. Oh he screwed everything up and lost? What a shock.

So now there's season 4. I guess there had to be one, since Hakan is such a moron that he just couldn't keep his ego in check, and make some smart decisions. He lost in the present, now he's going to fight in the past. Good luck buddy. Not sure I can bring myself to watch another season.

Exiting adventure in istanbul. english subs could be better (english). one remark though: i'm halfway the 2nd season and still the only thing the protector is protecting is his own self-interest including his girlfriends. must be something turkish...

It's an amazing show,Season 4 is Lit! 🔥💯 One of my favourite Shows. Excitement in every episode! It's a must watch!

I am glad to see something new coming from the world of Turkish cinematography. The show is far from perfect, there are holes in the storyline, and the dialogue seemed sometimes really shallow and unrealistic that it made me chuckle on few ocassions. When it comes to acting, the character of Hakan was quite belivable, and the rest of the cast was quite solid. You can see that the team really wanted to show the beauty of modern day Istanbul with glorius Ottoman history. And this is what makes the show special to western audiance, as this is the world we don't know that much about. All in all, there is definitely room for improvement, however I aplaud the attempt to push outside of the box when it comes to Turkish production.
