Love this show. I came across this on youtube. I hope they keep it going. I want more. Love the chemistry between Sanem and Can.

"Erkenci kus" is the second Turkish TV series I watched next to "Dolunay". Can Yaman and its great reviews pushed me to pursue this one. I haven't moved on with Nazli and Feret's tandem that's why I immediately jumped with this.

Early Bird is nice, bravo! Actors are great (especially Deren, Muzo & JJ), but it's something "so much" So much like a wattpad (very cliche) So much episodes So much irrelevant scenes (like there's so many commercials)

I like the comedy part especially with JJ, Muzo, and Derain, also the story of Leila and Emre which I did not expect to be working since I'm in love with Osman lol

I just find this drama so something-so-long like it could've ended on the 20s or 30s (parts that's really irritating)

Episode 40 and up shouldn't happened. Like, Yigit shouldn't have existed and no more accident-to-drama-cliche scene. Plus, Jan and Sanem's lack of trust, communication, and commitment lengthen this show.

Sanem is also so irritating. Like a head-over-heals inconsistent stubborn kind of girl. Her craziness and jealousy to Jan is kinda toxic especially when Polen, Bambi, or whoever girls are present but is so dense when it comes to Yigit. Like she's not giving him a space when he's meeting with girls as part of their business, I mean where's professionalism?. Though some girls may have hidden desires to Jan, can Sanem just trust him and act professional? Toxic! She's also blaming Jan for her mentally-damaged self when in fact it's due to her impulsiveness and dense attitude.

*Made this review while watching ep49. It's some kind of show that I'm watching because I feel like "obligated" to watch and not because I'm "100% into it." Obligated in a sense that "I made this far so I need to finish it." Whatever!

Nice ending but there's so many unfinished business especially on Huma & Yigit who left the show with clear reputation on the big crime they did on the protagonists.

Part. 1 I wasn't familiar with Turkish dramas and comedies, but I stumbled on this series and was hooked from the start. It's heartwarming and joyful, but it is also very emotional, heartbreaking and full of dramatic moments between the main couple. It's one of the best romantic comedies I have seen. The chemistry between the main couple is outstanding. It's full of funny and wonderful characters with their own individual personalities. I like the oddities of the little neighborhood/street corner and its residents and the hectic, creative surroundings of the advertising world. This show knows how to create a moving love story full of tension. It delivers many amazing romantic moments and takes advantage of the actors' charisma & chemistry. The scenery is striking and the music amazing. It's a very enjoyable, feel good, show. - EDIT. Part 2. review includes MILD SPOILERS. - - - - - Part 2. I had to edit my original review. It suffers a lot in later episodes, as story lines become repetitive and some of the romantic scenes seem actually forced. I started to feel they were written as fan service and not as thoughtful and meaningful parts of the story like before. Also the characters seem to make the same mistakes repeatedly, which starts to frustrate. It diminishes the progress that supposedly happened between them in previous episodes. I felt the male lead was reduced to just worship the female lead blindly. And it honestly was a disappointment, because the male lead was such a charismatic, driving force of a nature & deep, thoughtful character. It's like they suddenly decided to prop up the female lead over everyone else, whereas before it was more balanced. The magic of the story suffered a lot from it and the female lead started to seem annoying, jealous & snappish caricature of herself, while the male lead just keeps worshiping her no matter what. The show even had a break and they had enough time to rethink and fix things, but it turned out even worse. It's basically a different show now, and the characters are just annoying. Especially the female lead. They somehow managed to destroy the whole series and the magical and joyful fairy tail feeling it had.

I came across this series through fan made videos and decided to look into it. Was not disappointed! The cinematography is absolutely beautiful, full of color and life. The writing keeps me wanting more and makes me very impatient for the next episode. It has some cliches, like girl tripping and guy catching, but not enough to seem unoriginal.

The casting choices are phenomenal. The chemistry between the two leads is better than I've seen in most blockbuster Hollywood movies. They have their quirky charms and gestures, but the subtle facial expressions really drew me in. Most actors tend to overact these, but not the male lead. Can's gazes at Sanem really show a depth of affection and I absolutely love it! A lot of the side characters have you investing in their characters and not just focusing on the main lead.

If you are into romantic comedies with a bit of goofy drama and dilemmas, then check out this show!

The series is rather G rated but manages to be more romantic than most R movies. It has a certain Jane Austen quality mixed with comedy much like Bridget Jones Diary.

I am a person who for the most part does not like soaps. I like action dramas, thrillers and action movies/television. This show was a very pleasant surprise. It's well acted and the chemistry between the two leads is unmatched. Do yourself a favor and watch this show.

Addictive and constantly waiting for the following episodes. The chemistry between these two main actors are espectacular. They are so natural and funny. Love love love it. Luz

I love this series. Is funny but with a good Story. The protagonists are fantastic especially Can yaman, Is a wonderful actors. He became the caractere and has a good chemistry whit is partner in totale the serie. I absolutely reccommend ti view erkenci kus

Erkenci Kus is really really addictive and ruin every other show for you. It's full of colors, has two talented actors as lead roles, the great chemistry between them and along with an amazing team. Can Yaman and Demet Ozdemir are perfect and they play their roles as everything between them is real. All the characters in this series are great and well-chosen. Can Divit is really a gentelman, caring, kind man and loves Sanem as she is. Sanem is a naive, intelligent and so sweet girl. They are from two very different worlds but they complete each other they make themselves happy. And again the chemistry between them is amazing. In every scene they are with each other, even when they don't kiss, you feel the pure love between them. I'm obssesed with this show and watch each episode of it many times without being bored. If you haven't seen it yet, give it a try. you will fall in love with it from the first episode.

I found this show by mistake on youtube and I have to say that it's all that I could imagine in a show ,it's well written ,it's short (i mean i don't usually like shows that are like 400+ episodes for just a little thing ) I hope the writters will continue this show because it's really really good

What a beautiful chemistry between lead characters. Can Yaman is awesome. His expressions, eyes reflect each emotions so beautifully. Must for this romantic drama.

There are also some unwanted maholla section that spoil your mood. Zebercet, Mevkibe and many other characters are totally meaningless.

But overall storyline, casting are worth to watch.

This is one of the very best series i have ever seen! Awesome chemistry between the lead pair, gorgeous looking cast, good acting, nice story. It keeps on getting better and better! Can Yaman is a superb fit for The Game of Thrones!!

I watched the first episode with English subtitles on YouTube and now cant find any additional episodes! Love the show, love the fashion, love the romantic tension. I'd love to watch more if I can find them anywhere.

I couldn't resist but write a review of this show. For me this is the best romantic comedy I have ever watched. I've watched all 21 episodes and I'm half way through watching them again in almost a week and a half (each episode is two hours and so by the way!) So where can I start? First, the sizzling chemistry between the leads is mind blowing. Their and the entire cast's acting skills are unmatched. The direction is just wonderful, and the story line so gripping that you keep eagerly waiting for the next episode. I have never loved an actor as much as I love Can Yaman in this show (he's so hot here!), nor a character as much as his here. And the comedy side in this show is so funny that I sometimes start laughing out loud for a few minutes for only a second of a comic scene. I changed my rating from 9 to 10 as I kept watching because it really deserves it. As another reviewer said, this show is really addictive, and I hope it continues as good as it has been so far till its end.

This is the best series I've ever watched, makes me happy, laugh, gives me a lot joy and happiness, I enjoy to watch it.

This series is so far engaging and cute. Can's character really suited him especially it really wipes out the image of Ferit of Dolunay. Can & Sanem's characters are full of life, vibrant and cute and loved both of their dressings.

The story until now is engaging yet not different but I am hoping it will be a hit as far as it seems to be.

Love Erkenci Kus and the actors are incredible lovely, funny and very professional, special Can and Sanem. My favorite and I hope the writers continue with this TV serie and don't stop. Greetings from New York

Living in America, it's a little difficult to watch this without English subtitles, but the actors are so good. The show airs on Saturday night, and I'm too impatient to wait for the English subtitles to come out on Sunday. Just so good. The chemistry between "Can' and 'Sanem' are so amazing. The secondary characters are a treat, too. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a good romance story.

It is a beautiful show that mixes laughter with love with tears and friendship. Family comes first, love is the air we breathe. This is what the show is about. However, towards the end, there are a lot of goofs and mistakes, it somehow gets silly as well, but I was still hooked, I loved it, and I love looking at Can Yaman lol he is incredibly handsome and charming.

"Erkenci kus" was my first Turkish dizi ever. It was recommended by my good friend. I must say I had high expectations regarding this show. Several episodes later I was still uncovinced and bored, but my friend kept me on track saying: "It gets better later, keep watching". I watched everything except for the last two episodes and I must say this was a torture! Characters are silly, childish even, acting is average at best, plot makes no sense whatsoever. Side characters are annoying, parents act like a playschool pupils. The only good thing I can say about this show is the chemistry between main couple. Their attraction seemed very genuine. But overal, I have a strong impression that all those 10 stars reviews come from the people who blindly worship Can Yaman. Among all actors only Demet Ozdemir showed some decent acting skills, especially later on. There were opinions that show lost it's charm around 40 episode and I somewhat agree with that. There were some good moments before the writer's exchange but all those drowned in the stupid & unnessessary scenes, schemes and poor dialogues. It's not a show I would recommend to anyone, unless I intend them to suffer from boredom. I really regret I haven't quit watching when my guts told me to do so.

I might have made a mistake to watch Kiralik Ask before Erkenci Kus which resulted in me seeing similar characters and Erkenci Kus did not come up winning!

Female lead very immature and school girl type manurisms, and the two leads lacked chemistry. It felt forced!

I dont know why it got high scores, but could not get past episode 13...then gave up!

In my opinion Kiralik Ask is far better with chemistry, actors and story!

Another Turkish the best tv show which i'ever watched. I'm enjoying watching this series and have been waiting for the next episode! Don't stop and make people funny.
