I'm not surprised at the storyline, honestly most of these series adopt the same storyline if not more dramatic. I spent time fast forwarding through both episodes (1 and 2) cause I couldn't bring myself to actually sit for a whole 1 hour and a half cringing at the acting. I mean come on now, what on earth????!!!!! To top it off the long silent stares between characters, and glancing into the distance for what feels like 5 mins.

I can't watch this , spending almost 3 hours watching a series that's really not doing justice for that cast. The scriptwriters could do better than this series... bored.

Edit: Was it necessary to make Derya the biggest braindead character of all series? It's so unbelievable, it's laughable. Why did she not phone the police when that evil buried Yonca? There was enough evidence right there and he would've been caught red-handed, but no, she had to try and solve things her way. I know the story has to continue, but really....? Make it more believable. This series is getting beyond ridiculous and Hançer's attitude is getting really boring. No sane person is so self-sacrificial. She actually doesn't love Cihan. This series has entered stupid-territory.

I wish I could write just one sentence.... I forwarded three quarters of each episode and still didn't miss anything. There is too much fluff that doesn't need to be there. And everything borders on the ridiculous.

I would've liked to ML & FL in a series with a bit more meat. They both have potential. I don't think the script gives them any opportunities. The ML can be soulful. The FL, in this series is too slow. The way she brushes her hair or cuts cheese or doesn't respond (her sister in-law has to tell her what to do all the time). It's like her brain doesn't work. It's too much. Did you hire her just for her beauty? Please give her a personality.

If only the storyline can be a little more interesting and the Directing be better...with not such long pauses and a better, more natural flow to it, it has potential.

Hanca and Cihan are a gorgeous couple. Toxic relationship. Why wasn't a surrogate used since that's what happened with this request?

Some of the series I have seen so far show evil sides and intrigue from the opposition. Sometimes the evil treatment is so devastating, i cannot continue to watch. Beyaz and Cihans mother plotted against Hanca although their attempts failed. I'd like to know if Beyaz was treated like Hanca by Cihan. Why do the men in some of the series along with their mothers accuse the women of I'll behavior without asking. Some of the remarks made by Cihan to Hanca were so demeaning. Hanca was innocent and pure and only wanted to help her brother.

While I love this storyline. It can be misconstrued as denergrating of women who are asked, as it this case, to marry and have a child, by a rich family when the woman proposes conditions. It was unusual but Cihan could have said no or he changed his mind. I truly disliked Hancas greedy sister in law. She made Hanca look cheap when she was the negotiator.

Furthermore, I do not perceive Hanca's "condition" as ill repute. There was no sex involved. Therefore, if I had the choices she had with entering into an arranged marriage as a surrogate without benefits, only abuse or agreeing to an arranged surrogate marriage with a one-million dollar benefit to save her brother, the latter would have been my choice. Why did Beyaz allow Cihans mother to convince her to divorce when all they needed to do was pay a surrogate? I am patiently waiting for season 2 when it's revealed that Beyaz could in fact conceive but chose to have an abortion because she was going to have a girl and did not want a girl. Her friend previously threaded Beyaz with a picture of the ultrasound she had. The intrigue continues.

Is there at least a happy ending to this series?

This series is unbelievable .It portrays Turkish people as dim, stupid and even evil! So many loose ends, the doctors death left many clues not followed up, the baby snatching with no health follow ups and Hancer and Melih with their dim witted characters".......unbelievable!

Don't watch this.....it's a total waste of time. The poor actors that no directors will be chasing to employ

The pace of the series is so slow with 25% flashbacks in each episode so ALL viewers fast forward in every episode. Viewers don't need to see flashbacks if they are hooked on the series

I stopped watching at episode 92 as storyline was beyond belief but just checked and it stopped at episode 128......no surprise there.

I have seen many turkish series just to pass time but this one is on top of the list for really glorifying lies and making it sound like self-sacrifice. The main character that started to ask for 1 million straight away, like she is the only person with problems in this planet, is portrayed like this 'good, innocent and pure girl' while she is such a narcissist but the worst is that people get fooled by this type of girl. The mission of the movie is probably to promote evil. Every man should stay away from this type of girls, because she is really casting a spell on him in this movie. From a good and successful man, that gives everything to her, in more than 100 episodes, she tortures him acting like innocent. While in the contrary, she was doing everything for her ego, with revenge, hate and jealousy. On the other hand, his ex-wife Bayza, is an open book. She is evil, but she doesn't pretend to be a saint and doesn't hide her intentions. You don't know which evil is better in this movie because they are all evil. Shame whoever came up with this script. Now I wonder, is this part of their faith, to lie, to deceive and to hate and they are passed as good deeds? Im really speechless. All I can say is stay away from this movie. This movie will only irritate everyone. 0/10 rating.
