To be honest i am not a fan of this show. I am not even watching it. So how come i am so into it ? Simple, my wife is watching this show every week. I am only listening the show while i am doing something else. Time to time i just peek in to see what is happening. Truly, acting, the song, costumes, and the places it has taken are all great. It is true history with adapted parts to todays TV show. You can even compare it to Game of Thrones. It is all about plots. Of course there is no dragons but this is the real thing of GoT. The love story is real. All the wars are real. All the killings are real. You will cry for the dead people knowing that, he/she was really killed like it in history. If you like palace plots and love stories you should give it a try.

Love the show! And I am addicted. First two seasons were amazing, but the third season is rather 8 then 10. You will be stunned by the beauty of the actors, amazing costumes and decoration and most of all the jewelry peaces that women wear. I even took a print screen pictures of some of them to order something similar. I love the fact that most of the show proceedings are based on the real history and real people(but some characters were made up). Of course it's an entertainment show so don't expect to learn 100% accurate history from it. Before starting watching the show I would recommend to read a little about Suleiman the Magnificent. At least read about him and his life on wiki. I also wanted to note the music in the show, I am not sure who is a composer, but he/she definitely had done extraordinary job with the music (and i'm surprised that nobody did comment on it before in their reviews) I really recommend it for anyone who loves historical TV series or soap operas.

I've watched many series in my life time and this is, one of my favorite shows.

1. This series is based on a true story, it has happened 500 years ego about a king that had a harem of 300 wife's, the scenes are rapid cuts and keeps you on the edge of your seat, and you can't wait for the next show.

2. The show has many great love stories to tell, like, the kings lovers, the sisters love lives that turns in to tragedy and all his children's love lives. Basically the story revolves around love stories and it's misery.

3. The scenery is beautiful, most of the filming is done in a beautiful palace across from the ocean and psychologically you feel you're there when you're watching the film.

4. I love the tranquility in the series, there is so much action and yet there is NOT any violence, you'll never see any blood! If, they are injured the blood is blurry. Even dough there are wars but the story revolves around the palaces, the loves and betrayal.

5. The Camera, scoring, shots, everything is perfection in this show. 6. Addictive to the max. 7. There are people that have watched all 380 episodes 4 times. P.s. I only watched it 2wice. I swear, :)

Even Cardi B fell in love with the series but our Turkish men did not like it because it misrepresent the ottoman empire. Okay I agree with you. HOWEVER it doesnt change the fact that this show is perfect. Generally women love this show as it contains lots of plot, cabal.
