This series baffled everyone with its bizarre narrative. How anyone could possibly give this chaos a five-star rating. It was like watching a circus of contradictions, where logic took a holiday and reality was thrown out the window. This series has a knack for joking with every norm of society. Turkish series, in particular, have a reputation for portraying mothers as the eternal enemies of their children—a stark contrast to the universal image of mothers as protectors. But somehow, this is accepted as part of Turkish culture, a quirky tradition passed down through the screens. In general in Turkish series, brotherhood—normally a sacred bond—is completely absent. Instead, nearly every child is portrayed as illegitimate, as if family ties are just optional accessories. It is as if the writers believe that these twisted family dynamics were the new normal. Then there are characters in this series like Farid—who could kidnap without a second thought, spend his wedding night with both his bride and mistress in the same room, and wield absolute power over law and country. He could win any fight, commit any injustice, sleep with whomever he pleased, and even publicly abuse his wife and mistress. Yet, somehow, everyone was helpless—law, order, morality—nothing could stop him.And his wife who is a wishy washy obedient and helpless baffon. This series is like a cartoon that has a nonsensical world where anything could happen and often did, but with no real direction or sense. It seemed to serve as a twisted lesson to Turkish women: endure abuse silently because there’s nowhere to go. But why glorify such suffering? Why give award and recognition to a series that promotes women and children being tortured and demeaned as an acceptable norm of a society? Who are the people behind this baffling praise? It’s a mystery. This entire show, especially the small part that received accolades, is nothing more than a jumble of absurdity—dumber than a cartoon, yet somehow celebrated as great art.­­­­ And so, the story continues—an endless parade of nonsense, leaving viewers to wonder: when did storytelling become so distorted? And why are we applauding chaos over conscience?­­­­­

If I had a choice, I would give 5 star for the excellent acting of the cast. the 3 star is for the writers of this story. The writers have sick minds. Seems either Turkish society is this way, or the people the writers know are evil and bad. Turkish series present women as evil, men as naïve and vindictive. Mothers are creators of the most hearth each for their children . watch Afili Ask, Gunesin Kizlari, Ask Laftan Anamaz......Lets talk about Fazilet.... The writers had so many chances to come up with beautiful episodes bc the actors were that capable. They also had ample time to have a reasonable ending but instead, they wrote the story around destroying the existence of one person, Yagiz, and turned all cast members into evils who would enjoy doing whatever satanic act they could to this lonely adopted, kind, gentle, honest, family loving, romantic hero called Yagiz. and since they wasted time of the series, most of its 50 episodes of 2-1/2 hours of it on nonsense vindictive tails, they either ran out of money or contract time and ended the story of great love with a love seen at a grave yard and 1 minute at Fazilat's door at the very end. it was a waste to watch the long agony and the short sited victory. Of course this does not apply to the cast Caglar was very convincing lover, Deniz is master of cry scenes, Nazan was amazing manipulator etc. One thing left to say that I am not from a Turkish decent just learned to speak the language . watching movies teaches us about the society and cultures of countries.
