Lack of good storyline.

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Kosem production is not as good as the first one dedicated to Suleyman Magnificent but all in all still good.I would have liked a better Kosem more passionate and bold. An interesting character is Faria, the padishah's lover and wife. It is not clear what religion she is. She is supposed to be Christian Catholic but she never makes the sign of the cross in the church. I am intrigued by her hair; it is never done always a mess !! Still I am enjoying the series very much it opens world I always wanted to know better.

Name of series is kosem. But We never see reign of kosem, first female Ottoman ruler. Also True kosem is blonde. But she is brunette. Most important characters Mahfiruz Valide Sultan, Sehzade Suleyman) are slipshode or never exist. Script is so bad. Only fictional love. Actually True story, female powers, mother-son competition, entrigue, blood, clever, child and mad rulers. This is time of female rulers. Especially Fictional Faria and Gulbahar are unbearable, Actually Ayse is noble and Gulbahar is sister of Kosem. Also brother of kosem killed. Clothes aren't Ottoman, Western. Too modern. I want to write wrong of all characters. But this writing isn't enough. You must know, Every time is wrong. Example, mother of mehmet isn't kosem. mother of beyazid isn't fictional gulbahar. Beren Saat is very bad Kosem. Script doesn't allow performance of other actors. True Ahmet and Osman has white skin and too young. Series is too fictional. Even Characters is empty.

Safiye Sultan continuously refers herself as a third person and calls herself in plural, namely as "BIZ". In Christianity "Popes" refers themselves in plural, referring to the "Trinity" (God, Holly ghost and Christ). Neither in Osmanli, Turkish nor Muslim languages there is a place for such a misinformed deviation. I suggest to stop this non- nonsensical pretension. Kosem Sultan series is true history and that makes it very believable and authentic. I have to make one more comment about the series; it is too slow. I wait impatiently to watch it every Thursday, however even myself sometimes I lose my focus because too long conversations and lack of action. Ergun Tok (

in fact am a geek follower of the series since season 1 which had a better concrete story line kosem is nice and amazing to each but during few episodes you will loose focus especially when safiye sultan keep on returning like a demon from hell action scenes are seldom and rare would have loved to see more about what sultan ahmad did as a ruler and how he played a part during the declining part of ottoman history. actors well ladies aren't attractive like the first 4 seasons which had more charismatic appearance and roles were played in a more genuine part and i would have preferred to see even more from the old cast recasted why not at the end these are descends so look a like is an option yet this doesn't mean i don't like the series i love it and i would give a big 10 but i wanted to be exceeding expectations
