4/10
A missed opportunity for depth and authenticity
9 May 2024
Warning: Spoilers
I had high hopes for this show, especially with such a talented cast lined up. Sadly, it fell short of expectations. It seems like yet another attempt to shock audiences with the same old tropes of sex and alcohol, without offering much in terms of substance or originality. The first episode felt oddly out of place, more like a standard American teen drama than a portrayal of Turkish life.

What really pulled me out of the experience was the restaurant and chef scene. If you're going to center a show around a "hot chef," it's crucial to get the details right. Unfortunately, the kitchen atmosphere felt artificial, and the portrayal of the chef lacked authenticity.

I'm hopeful that there will be better projects for these talented actors to showcase their abilities and offer more depth. Here's to hoping for something with a bit more meat on its bones next time.
