We all know Japanese people are getting the utmost praise for not being the inventors themselves, but being the innovators, developers. They take an idea and perfectionise it as they can. These guys here also accomplish a similar task in such quality, that makes me so proud as a fellow Turkishman.
The creators obviously inspired from Thomas Jane's Hung (2009), but within two reasons this product gloriously ascends and easily passes its predecessor by leaving it way behind in the comedic scale.
First reason is the universe of the story; because taking the idea from the boring, ever-repeating suburban life of Michigan, USA and bringing it to the lower class, hard struggle streets of Istanbul, Turkiye single handedly builds up and enriches the show with the diversity of possibilities that Istanbul's chaotic and colorful environment provides.
The second and the obviously heavier reason is the lead, Mahsun Karaca. Domestically he is known with his kinda unique humor in his sketch comedy bits, so the creators gave him a lot of space and independence as it is seen. I just finished watching the first two newly released episodes and believe me he delivers. The improvisation level is so well adjusted and when he starts to bring the goods, he brings the golden ones. Especially in the second episode, I couldn't shut my chin up because of his punches. I already feel sorry for the non-Turkish speaking audience, I hope not much will be lost in translation.
I know I am speaking very highly about this, but this is the actual first time I ever bothered to write a review on Imdb. The other cast members, cinematography, score, the whole production is not falling behind also, it is clearly above the acceptable production quality of average Turkish film-making level.
I am waiting fingers crossed for the later episodes and praying they won't mess this up, but I can comfortably say Mahsun J is a legend in the making. Also I feel a little honored and joyful to be the first to write a review for this. So far this team made a believer out of me. Good job guys, two thumbs up! My only tiny criticism is about the name of the series, it should have been "46,5" and became perfect :)) Enjoy!

I have been following Mahsun for a long time and he has shown his potential in his previous attempts, it goes without saying how good he is at this, the series is interesting but he manages to make people laugh and think by making fun of the bad sides of the country. Yes, the acting is not perfect, but that is not necessary to understand that the script is strong. If he works with quality actors in his future works, he can do better than this. Each episode is better than the previous one, I can see that he understands and learns from his mistakes, and I congratulate him. I hope this great work will be respected and watched all over the world.
As a courier, I believe that I will really enjoy following this series of Mahsun Karaca. I am admiring a series that features a character who is a motorcycle courier for the first time, as they have never examined or included motorcycle couriers on any platform or in any work before. Although we already follow Mahsun Karaca fondly, I am really proud that he has such a project on various platforms. Even though the subject is a bit strange, it is a really fun production. I wish Mahsun Karaca success in his life. I hope this series and him will come to much better places..........................

This leading actor, who comes from the public, successfully reflects the tragicomic stories in our daily lives into the series. Only 2 episodes of the series have been released. If we make a review based on the 2 episodes, I am sure that we will enjoy watching the next episodes. We want the Turkish TV series industry to move in this direction. I hope many more episodes will be shot. Mahsun Karaca, who previously shot videos on YouTube that were loved by the public, proved that he would be successful in the TV series industry with this series. We are looking forward to seeing what topics will be captured in the upcoming episodes of the series.
There is no other TV series in my life that has made me laugh this much. Excellent script, excellent actors and acting. Mahsun Karaca is a self-improving actor who improves himself in every project. Coming from the public makes him someone who has learned the scenario by experiencing it. For the first time we made the right person famous. As a native of Adana, I wish them continued success. We will be with you from the first day to the last day, brother. I would like to thank the gain team, set staff, scriptwriters and staff for pioneering such projects from Turkey. You wrote your name in history in golden letters.
