Beni Affet ("Forgive Me") is a Turkish family, romance and drama series produced by Focus Film. Aired every weekday, it began on Show TV on October 17, 2011, moved to Star TV after its 100th episode on March 2, 2012, and ended on December 28, 2018, with episode 1,477. Across eight seasons, it became one of Turkish television's longest-running daily dramas.

The story opens with obstacles facing families whose children fall in love, then grows into a wide web of households. Forbidden romances, children unaware of their true identity, inheritance fights and betrayal supply the material, while the search for forgiveness, echoed in the title, ties the strands together. In the early seasons Nusret Şenay plays Osman Kozan, the father who repeatedly blocks his son Cüneyt (Murat Danacı) from marrying Feride (Şeyma Korkmaz). The cast was constantly renewed; names such as Aleyna Eroğlu, Baki Çiftçi, Burcu Oktav, Can Arpacı and Gaye Turgut appeared at different stages.

Filming took about seven years. Abroad, the series aired in Bulgaria from March 26, 2015, to October 11, 2019, becoming the longest-running Turkish drama there, and in Serbia on Happy TV between 2014 and 2018. It also found success in Russia, Kazakhstan and the Middle East, while the Latin American dub covers only the first four seasons.

Titles sharing this cast

Through different eyes

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

1,477 episodes, about seven years of filming, on air every weekday: Beni Affet is one of the giants of daily drama. Forbidden romances, children unaware of who they are, inheritance fights and betrayal; because the cast was constantly renewed, character arcs blur after a while. The early thread of Osman, Cüneyt and Feride, though, is worth watching. To be honest, over such a long road slow and repetitive episodes are unavoidable. For marathon lovers, but only if they are patient.

History & Society Lens Asks about the period, the social background and what the work reflects.

The series opens with obstacles facing families whose children fall in love, then spreads into a wide web of households. Themes such as inheritance fights, betrayal and hidden identity reflect class and family pressure, and the search for forgiveness fits the title. That it became the longest-running Turkish drama in Bulgaria, and found interest in Russia, Kazakhstan and the Middle East, shows how this family narrative crosses borders. Of course, the daily-drama format often reduces the social picture to melodrama.

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

A long series on air every day, full of family and love stories. There are forbidden romances, betrayal and inheritance fights, which may weigh on younger children. Still, its messages about asking forgiveness and keeping the family together are warm. Being so long, one episode after dinner is easy, finishing the whole run is hard. A comfortable habit for grown-ups; not every episode may suit the little ones.
