Well, first of all, I only watched first 20 episodes yet. But let's put the history aside for a second, the show is pretty good and they made very fluent, exciting storyline. Costumes, actings are well done. Unlike many Turkish series, it doesn't have many filler scenes (because most of the shows make very long filler scenes in order to fill 120 mins per episode.) The chronology of some events has changed in favor of making a good scenario but in overall, they portrayed that time pretty good and specially Abdulhamid is almost perfectly on point. The low rating for this show might be because of the guys that are watching it in Turkey, most of the people that watches this, comments really ignorantly and they are really disturbing. Show is pretty good tho.

Haven't watched fully yet but few things I gotta say as a Turkish guy who is interested in history.
