Okay. It's 5 in the morning, and I just finished watching Love 101. Let me tell you: I am completely blown away.
At first I was skeptical, since every Turkish TV show is known to be a complete disaster and a big old cliche. I expected nothing more than a mediocre love story and some very dramatic scenes that make you cringe. Oh boy was I wrong.
This show is the epitome of an emotional roller coaster. This show portrays a story about friendship, love, self-acceptance, change, rebellion, defying standards, life, pain, true happiness and sorrow, all in one, that simply takes your breath away. At one moment you're laughing out loud and the next moment your eyes are filling up with tears. It is genuinely funny and heartwarming, and at the same time extremely melancholic. It is also very clever, amazing writing, and manages to stay quite original. The cast is just perfect; the way they manage to bring this beautiful story to life is simply fascinating. A bonus are some stunning shots of one of the most beautiful cities in the world- Istanbul. This show is definitely worth your time, and you won't regret watching it.
To summarize, I can say that this show is a Turkish masterpiece. They've officially outdone themselves.
Now if you'll excuse me... I'm going to sleep. And thank you, to the creators, to the cast and everyone involved. This show is a nothing less than a blessing.
