Haven't seen a show this contrived in a long time. Not only does the "love story" makes no sense (which is basically a glorified story of Stockholm syndrome), acting by a good amount of characters was very trash and wooden. Writing (both screenplay as well as general ideas) is some of the worst I've seen - plotlines were dropped mid-way (like Azad-Yeter storyline, Ayhan just disappearing, Idil's disappearance being shrugged off like nothing ever happened, etc), scenes that lead to some "emotional scenes" (which fail at invoking any emotion at all due to the wooden acting) are contrived and badly written.
Prime example is the car accident that lead to the reveal of Asli's pregnancy - how on earth did the car hit something in middle of the road so bad it flipped over? Where did the car hit? Some tree that turned invisible upon hitting the car? Then Ferhat leaves the driver to die like a true idiot and never even bothers to call the ambulance. Then you have the scene where Yusuf was sniped. How on earth did no one call the police or ambulance when a sniper was fired near a cafe? Where did Yusuf get blood for his blood loss, assuming you even survive the sniper shot to the gut?
The family being in an illicit business is pretty much an excuse to have Ferhat firing guns and acting cool and edgy, literally no problem ever comes out of their "business" (which we, as a viewer, have no knowledge of at all, so it becomes easy, when it shouldn't be, to sympathize with mass murderers on the show).
The show basically asks you to shut your brain and watch the wishy-washy scenes of "love" (as if any love could ever make sense between a victim and their tormentor) and has pretty much no interesting premise to call it a "missed-opportunity" even.
