Review of The Family

The Family (2023–2024)
2/10
Same technique, same thing.

So, just like in all Turkish TV series, a beautiful actress is selected who can stay popular and relevant, and a handsome actor who is currently trending is also chosen. These two characters struggle to have a love life amidst a series of problems, and during all this, nothing happens in terms of acting or TV development. This is the summary of Turkish TV in recent years.

As for our series, it has an excessively long screen time that will bore you to death. They just can't seem to understand that this screen time numbs people and prevents them from enjoying it. The biggest drawback is the screen time. The basic reason for many other flaws is similar to the first paragraph - due to these series, the acting skills of popular actors and actresses in the country are declining. This is my opinion. While trying to create depth, the scenes of staring constantly repeat the same scenario, and there is nothing new in terms of technique, acting, or directing. There's nothing extra, and no creativity.

It seems that the lack of success in the first episode of the series is due to the absence of curiosity, meaning that the supposedly mysterious character feels inexplicably un-mysterious, which is another nonsensical aspect.

In this day and age, when everyone's time is so valuable, watch something sweeter and less brain-numbing or engage in activities that are more productive. If this is going to continue, my biggest hope is that it won't be like other series that promote male hegemony and belittle women.

Update: Last time I stumbled upon the worst music I've ever heard in my life, like "ah oh ah oh" music, it's like a joke really. But their other music was good.
