Anyone take a dive into Black Money Love from Turkey on Netflix? [View all]

I looked for something to keep me away from the RNC convention this week. So I looked for something with a bunch of seasons and found this series. From Netflix:
"After a cop's fiancée and a jewelry designer's father are found dead together, the two bereaved ones face a perilous aftermath of a theft gone wrong."

Netflix is airing Season 1, so far, that has 164 episodes. Season 2 has 54 and isn't available yet. Each episode is about 40 minutes so they really leaned into it. It only aired in Turkey 2014-2015 and was produced during those two years according to Wikipedia.

Well, I leaned into it, too, and managed to watch many episodes since last weekend. I didn't watch a single second of the RNC lie-fest nor the running commentary.

I like the scenery, especially when some was filmed in Rome. I'm also exploring some Turkish recipes to try. And, checking out some cultural norms since I know very little about the country.
