I have been watching K-dramas on Netflix, which immersed me in foreign cultures.So, tried this one of Orthodox Jewish people in Israel.I was expecting to be educated, converted, convinced as to the superiority of this religion, but no, was pleasantly surprised that the setting is only the context for the human drama that we see everywhere. Impressed with the main character Shulem, his acting, character, who uses religion as it suits his human foibles and need to guide and protect his family. In the end love for family over rides arbitrary rules of religion which can be interpreted as you please and hope. Impossible relationships, desires, scruples, staying just barely this side of laws of the heart, Loved it. Binge watched it, and found the Hassidic Jews and their world endearing. Side effect- developed craving for bread, pita, goulash, soup, cheesecake and pastry!

Most enjoyable and soothing. No situation or person irredeemable even if unbelievable. Episodes always enjoyable lulling you into its beautiful dream world. It is truly a heavenly existence

Nice subtle development and twists. You might think success and love are endings, but here they are only the setting for the side effects of success. Something hardly seen in Bollywood or Hollywood. The multi episode drama allows this development. Things keep changing when they should be getting better. The fragility of promises, faith and love in the face of the grinding reality of daily life is very beautifully portrayed. Impressed with K dramas as a whole, and this does not fail either. Very enjoyable.

Very good drama, impressive how the characters keep changing and good becomes evil and vice versa. Characters change and shift , totally believable manner, and you can see the full complexity. There are some boring statements of eternal filial piety and loyalty, revenge etc, but still interesting to watch how businesses develop and fall, how relationships change.
