Wow. I was blown away. The brilliant acting, the unique at times horrifying storyline, the editing and the natural flow between the scenes, the unusual beautiful music and a whole lot more. It gave me the feeling of watching a Nordic Noir production and maybe that was the director's aim.

THANK GOD there was no sign of over-done actors and actresses, endless boring flashbacks, soapy unreal storyline that drags on in hundreds of episodes and constant over-dramatization with annoying music in the background which basically seems to sum up most of Turkish TV shows.

This for me ranks high up there with the likes of Behzat C although there are differences. Finally, the great Turkish talent is being used to its full potential and in something quite different.

I highly recommend this series to anyone Turkish or otherwise interested in a high quality psychological crime drama/mystery with an engaging storyline which keeps you interested to the end.

A well respected retired police chief has spent his career chasing and catching psychopaths, sociopaths, murderers and thieves. Little does he know that his sons are no different than the people he has chased his entire life. The plot is very well done and takes you on a twisted psychological journey in the same manner as a Hitchcock thriller. Pay attention from beginning to the end when it all falls into place...

If you are a fan of "Leyla ile Mecnun" or "Behzat Ç.", this is at their quality scale as in acting and scenario. Haluk Bilginer is a huge actor, one must be remembered as a legend. Serkan Keskin, Okan Yalabık, Ali Atay, Nur Sürer and the other members of the show are brilliant and spectacular also. The event flow of the show is not linear; it focuses on the character development rather than the events themselves. It is based on a theater play called "Bayrak (Flag)" which the scenarist of this show wrote and adapted it for TV. Foreign people can easily watch and enjoy also; because it is an universal story about human relationships, human mind, love, neglect, crime and memories. I suggest this show to anyone who wants to spend quality time and take lessons from a good story.

In Turkey I was suffocating from drama,"history" and silly comedy series, but this TV series is something so ahead of these kinds. First of all this is the first one which was made on an internet based platform, like Netflix, which name is Blutv and this is the biggest advantage for the project. If it was on TV, there would be lots of censorship. Cast is could be one of the best in Turkey, even some of them played in international projects. And the intro music has a special place for me because of the person who sang it (Selda Bağcan). To sum up, projects which liked so much and was made in Turkey can't pass the numbers of two hand and Masum/Innocent is definitely one of them.

Firstly, what an excellent cast. These are some seriously good actors, even the child was quite terrific. Add to that a well-written, well-crafted script with high production values and a great attention to detail in the set and you have an excellent series. By far and away the best I have seen out of Turkey. Well recommended.

Innocent is truly a gem and it immediately succeeds in characters,scenes, twists etc. from the very beginning. It is a story gripping you initially and never letting you at the end of each episode. The script is totally convincing and intriguing and so is the cast. I really loved the tone and mood of the series. I believe one would enjoy the music too. The acting of great actor Haluk Yavuzer adds depths to the show. All in all, I would highly recommend this TV series to everyone looking for something new, genuine and captivating.

Story had me from the beginning of the series. Normally I'm not watching series on TV. I don't have any time to spend 2,3 hours for the crappy series. But this one is special, brilliantly written and directed. It's also Web-TV it's save us from endless commercial,and it's 45 min finally someone do it. another thing is, I don't know it is available different language or the country, if it's not - it should be. because world need to see series like this. Keep up, we need people like you who can broke the chain. and don't make us wait too long.

Suspense, great acting, hooked me in straight away and never let go.

Moments of brilliance, superb acting all very competent no outstanding performance, excellent storyline, my rating dis -improved in the last 2 or 3 episodes, too much back and forth in time which was confusing but i enjoyed and recommend.

This series truly demonstrates what great writing and acting can achieve, anything else beyond that is just ornamental. Stunning performances by the actors, truly believable emotions, weaving through a complex plot. Even though you'll watch this with the subtitles on and you'll be alien to a few of cultural references, the true human feeling of the story is unchanged.

Rating 5/10 because of fantastic acting, direction, editing, cinematography. Wish that the plot be equally good but that wasn't. Rather the plot was full of holes, illogical explanation, etc

I wanted to like this show, as quite a few things were nicely set up. The atmosphere, camera work, the scenery and the acting as well. But all these efforts unfortunately went down with the script. The suspense is there, but unfortunately dies a long and uneventful death. The ending is no surprise and there's a lot of whining, crying and adults, that obviously are so dependent on their parents, that it can drive the viewer crazy. All of this show is blown up by a vast amount of unnecessary scenes and dialogue, that do not contribute to the story's progress in the slightest, overall a 90 minute feature could have told everything in a better pace and might have kept the viewer on. What I really liked were the beautiful views over the Marmara region, a big minus however were a lot of stereotypes in regards to the standing of females, as providers and recipients of commands.

The acting, the story, the plot, the dialogues are great. Mysterious and dark. Besides being a detective story also a powerful drama

This really starts off strong. Especially the first episode is something to behold. And in general this is well written and acted too. There is drama, there is mystery, there are a few twists and turns (even after all is over - sort of). But it does get a bit repetetive towards the end and there are certain soap opera elements that may annoy some viewers.

Again, that may sound like nitpicking to some, I'm just keeping it real. Because this is good, this will strike a chord with people who experienced similar family circumstances and it does touch everyone with believe in their family in general too. Characters are flawed but they have to. It is life after all - and annoying things that should be different are part of it ...

I decided to watch this series only due to 8.8 rating but was highly disappointed. There are far better Mystery series available on Netflix or Prime. This series at best can be termed as Drama with little bit of Mystery element. It is not worth spending your 8 hours of quality time. The whole series can be made as 2.5 Hour movie with better impact. Acting of all lead actors is good. Technical aspects of the series are also good. I would suggest to avoid this series an watch some other well shot Mystery series like Safe , Broad church , Tabula Rasa , La Mante ,La forêt ,The Chalet , La trêve , Deadwind ,Trapped ,Bron/Broen ,The Killing ,Happy Valley ,The Fall ,Marcella ,Hinterland ,Shetland . Most of the series are available on Netflix and Prime.

I really get excited after than seeing all the names of cast - but really cannot expect that much powerful product from a newcomer internet television, BluTV. They really made amazing job by taking all these people together with an awesome scenario. It has balanced suspense and horror and flow of scenario is really lucrative. Hope to watch more than one season but these 8 series were really engaging!

This series has not happened!

We are used to seeing in mainstream media business, long glances, meaningless rewinds, tearing songs off the whole of the script, I'm telling the songs without worrying that this series does not exist either. If one of these nice things is not advertising, the other is the time (54-55 min) that does not last for hours. The least beautiful thing is "Censure" without hesitation. The most spectacular view ever presented to Turkish audiences with not so many is "Innocent".

With the role of Haluk Bilginer (Cevdet) and Okan Yalabık (Tarık), acting actress flies in the first episode. Nur Sürer (Nermin), Ali Atay (Yusuf), Serkan Keskin (Taner) and Tülin Özen (Emel) shine brilliantly with their potentials. It is not wrong to say that you will already have memory as a production with a high level of satisfaction in terms of acting.

Watching the first episode of the series and making a statement about the script is not exactly known, but for us who are transcending the foreign series of cultures, there is not a surprising / opposite corner for now. To see that many things that you first guessed happen can ask the question of whether there is weakness in the sense of fiction. I hope the producers are going to make a fall on meeting the scriptwriters and the directors.

The easiest way to watch this series, which will be talked about with praise, is a weekly free bluTV trial membership. It will be difficult to find in Torrent and immediately watch sites with copyright law. My personal idea; Sherlock, Dexter, Prison Break, House M.D, Breaking Bad, etc. ... like to see the similarities that we have in this series. It deserves to be watched for a monthly fee of 10-TL in order to be able to see similar productions.

Many storylines, a little slow but only to provide detail. Very well done.

I created an account just to rate this show! I have been into mystery/suspense/crime shows recently and absolutely loved this one. The acting, buildup through asynchronous storyline, filming and character development are amazing. I would say this show is similar in feel and pace to Broadchurch and Safe. If you've seen and liked those, I would highly recommend this series. Also, please make more content like this, Turkey! Ive been trying to find good turkish content to help me learn Turkish but there is very little out there that is not too over the top/cringey. This, however, A+!

Can you please recomment me a turkish serial which is like Masum?

A clear indicator that a perfect cast and excellent acting doesn't mean everything. I think this cast doesn't deserve this bad of a plot which is full of unexplainable holes.

Enjoyed the first 7 episodes!! But the finale was a disappointment for me !!! I really hate it! And wasted my time Sahaiyet is much better than this show

I love mystery , great acting, you should watch it A+
