A very good example of absurd comedy... If Turkish is NOT your native language, you should get %10 of the taste.. sorry for that... Aziz Kedi and Feyyaz Yigit rocks...
I've never seen a series like this in turkish tv history.
This is the perfect mixture of comedy and social critisizm. Like it is the answer of "what if black mirror becomes a comedy series". Almost everything feels like exaggerated but not contrived. Feels very natural as if it happens in everyday life. And then you realise, "yeah this happened to me some time ago"

Hello. As a man who was born in and have been in the metropols in Turkey for 22 years, I can now see why some non-native people'd not like this series.
The episodes mostly bear a soul of purified classical state of being of a Turkish person, reflected over unorthodox events which are not so oleaginous considering the life in the metropols in Turkey. It is not solely the scenario, it is the cumulative constructs of the feelings embedded inside the individuals and the whole scenes that matter. The construct here that builds up from a sub-ordinary event and develops into a crazy situation is not already part of the current metropol life of Turkey; but also in the classics of Turkish literature, spanning from the Republic era novels back to the Ottoman and pre-Ottoman tales and myths -of which the weakened Turkish education system still manages to give a taste to the pupils.
So; with the clear and rich language, the smooth switch and set-up of the scenes, the accurate typing, this series can be considered as a masterpiece. This series does not only entertain its viewers, but also help correct and richen the degenerating language of them. However; I can see that if you are non-native, you may not spot those values easily. I get it.
