It was a very well-crafted script. Fresh, light and dynamic. No one realized that this hours had already gone by. We also loved how multilayered Semih's character turned out to be.

A great series to have a glimpse of a time in which I haven't lived, and a place where the Turkish showbiz mixed with power, ambition, and Turkish politics during fights between Turkey and Greece over Cyprus.
Cagatay Ulusoy is AWESOME in the role of broke cinema maker Semih Ates!!! He is a magician who pulls wonderfully created characters out of his hat, just as Semih is a magician in love with the art of cinema who pulls trick after trick out of his hat to survive in a hostile environment and help other survive... literally!
Plus, the direction, vintage reenactment, cast and music are excellent!
Once again, Cagatay shows us what a fine actor he is and what a keen sense he has to choose work projects and manage his career. You have a great future ahead, my dear Cagatay!
All I can add is... I cannot wait to watch season 2!!

As a Turkish series, this series, which takes place in Istanbul, is very successful. They reflected the 1960s very well. The players are awesome. I watched with pleasure and longing. Congratulations to the entire team. Quality 👍
I believe Cagatay is moving from success to another. He is not acting but living up the character, the era, etc in an outstanding way. He is one of a kind and with unmatching charisma. The whole castt and director too did a marvellous job. This was a smashing record.
Yesilcam is a great series which is well researched and brings nostalgia as it focuses on political atmosphere and how the history of Turkey affected the process of film making there. Characters are so well crafted especially the multidimensional character of Semih who's got some really good dialogues by the way. It's a great period drama which tells you a story of relatively sincere people that used to exist at that time. It's not just a show about how filmmaking used to take place those days and how Yesilcam was a thing of pride to people as Turkey became the fourth largest producer of films in the world at that time, but it's also a show which tells the history of Turkey from the perspective of a film producer in an enjoyable ride for all.
