Le vampire d'Istanbul

For this being Turkish, it's pretty sold. Wish there was more than just one season.

So although initially the first episodes were a lil boring.. I mean not too interesting, the next episodes caught my attention. I really liked the dynamic between Mia & Dimitry. The love/hate steaminess was so good. The plot twist was interesting!! But now I need to....How will it end? Was that the end? Will there be a season 2? Whyyyyyyyy???

Yeap, dispite the potentially interesting story setting and a backdrop of east-meets-west Istanbul, every character in the series is a plot hole. EVERYONE! I can see the main actors n actress have done well to portrait their characters, but simply put, none of the characters make sense there. The final twist even made me laugh. Female vengeance should be much, much deeper in description.

Come to my senses, it doesn't look like a compelling battle between humans n vams. It's pretty much just a gang fight between 2 underground nightclubs.

I found it boring. I watched up to 3rd or 4th episode and bailed. The big baddie was too juvenile and cocky to make a credible bad guy. Some redeeming qualities include the well played character who was enamoured of vampires. I got a bit tired of the punk trope for the good guys, but I get that it's part of the down trodden neighbourhood. I did not find i worthwhile because the series was taking too much time not only moving the understandable parts of the story along, but also filling in the back story with explanation rather than filler.

It was terrible. terrible. I couldnt stop watching it.
