  • this is a boring drama series I ever had seen it doesn't reply and good message for viewers,actually it doesn't have any meaning.

    • If you cannot find the meaning of this show then you are definetly judging it without ever watching it. The meaning of the show appeared from the first episode! It teaches you to becarful who you deal with and open your doors to. Sevket ( and all the other men) was dangerously attracted to ferhunde, and it changed his life completely. Oguz brought unthinkable trouble to 2 siblings and left them more enemies than sisters. And so on and so on, I think this was a brilliant series about family and the actors were all excellent. It truly made me feel like they were my actually family!

  • Salam, wish you luck, but i want to have say for the writer and director of The Fall of Leaves" my name is Abdul Hai and i am living in Afghanistan, a few years ago we Afghan people especially in the big cities used to watch Indian dramas via private TV channels, at the beginning they were kind of interesting but gradually they become boring and even ailing, therefore the viewers of the private TV channels sharply decreased, realizing this fact, those channels quit broadcasting Indian dramas and started broadcasting Turkish drams, to fool our people, at first they started with series that had Islamic themes, and when they got sure that people like Turkish series , they start broadcasting dramas such as The Fall of Leaves and others like "5 sisters," "the Glorious Era" Zaman" with Erkan Betikaya, Ayshe Bengol" etc... now we that these dramas are going to become another Indian dramas because in every episode of these dramas we only witness the boring story of a family deep in problems, lies, cheats, illegal sex( one of the great sins in Islam)sorrowfulness, and other bad things. this makes me think Turkia is a non-Islamic country, and also i think why we should set infront of our TV to watch the grieves and miseries of a Turkish family, isnt our own grieves and sorrows enough to witness others miseries too.arent there any good stories in Turkia.why the script writer keep playing with the feelings of the audience of the drama, and keep giving them tension. i hope there is a change in theme of the dramas otherwise i personally and my whole family would quit watching such as Turkish bulshits , as long as i have know the Iranian dramas are the best in the theme and subject, they are Islamic, human, instructive, and the best thing they have that they do not encourage our youngsters to revolt against our Islamic values, our fair culture and family ties. with best regards, Abdul Hai
