This series was recommended to me by others. I just finished watching the series.
This series is very different from the typical Turkish soap opera style fare rom Turkey. Many reviewers have given high praise to this series, so I will focus on things that have not been touched as much by other reviewers.
The series is based on the attitudes of secular educated and professional Turks and the traditional, observing moslem laboring Turks toward one another. It has the honesty to acknowledge the existence of the traditional vs modern divide in Turkish society. For that courage and honesty it deserves high praise as many have given it. The acting is belevable and well done.
The series has a poetic ending of sorts that makes for a pleasant resolution for most viewers. As a person who has seen the catastrophic results of the secular vs religious divide in my country Iran the ending comes across as too poetic.
