Everything About Marriage (Evlilik Hakkında Her Şey) (translated)

TV Series · 2021–2022 · 6 people

Evlilik Hakkında Her Şey (Everything About Marriage) is the Turkish adaptation of the British series The Split, a television drama that mixes family stories with divorce law. Produced by MF Yapım, it started on Fox on 21 September 2021, aired weekly on Tuesdays in episodes averaging 120 minutes, and ended with its 33rd episode on 31 May 2022. For international sales it was packaged as 104 episodes of 45 minutes. It combines drama and comedy-drama with a legal strand.

The story centres on four very different women of the Cevher family. Çolpan is divorced, Azra has been married for years, Güneş is about to marry and Sanem rejects the very idea of marriage. How they react to a shared past, and where they differ, lets the series show every stage of a marriage. Alongside this run client stories, which expose the hidden face of family, love and loyalty.

Gökçe Bahadır, Sumru Yavrucuk, Sarp Akkaya and Yiğit Kirazcı lead the cast, joined by Gökçe Eyüboğlu, Barış Kılıç, Serkan Altunorak, Erdal Küçükkömürcü and Tülin Ece. Yusuf Pirhasan and later Volkan Keskin directed; Toprak Karaoğlu, Seda Çalışır Karaoğlu, Ayşe Canan Ertuğ and Halil Ersan wrote it.

What I like most about Everything About Marriage is how it brings four very different women of the Cevher family into one story: divorced Çolpan, long-married Azra, Güneş on the verge of marriage and Sanem, who rejects the very idea. Thanks to that quartet, the series can look at every stage of a marriage. A cast led by Gökçe Bahadır, Sumru Yavrucuk and Sarp Akkaya inspires confidence, and the client stories running alongside the main plot keep things lively. But episodes averaging 120 minutes are genuinely long; some weeks the main line treads water and the side stories test your patience. Wrapping it all up in 33 episodes was a good call.

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

By blending divorce law with family stories, the series holds up an interesting mirror to the changing meaning of marriage in Turkey. Placing four women at different stages of marriage makes the gap between their choices visible: a woman who rejects marriage as an institution and one who has kept a long union going belong to the same family. The client stories expose the hidden side of family, love and loyalty, taking the subject beyond the purely personal. Being adapted from the British series The Split raises the question of how well some situations fit local reality, but as a production that puts women's perspectives at its centre, it stands out in the television of its time.

Cinephile Looks at script, editing and directing choices; keeps a distance from formula films.

The most interesting thing about this adaptation is how the British series The Split is moved into Turkish television's format of episodes averaging 120 minutes. That it was repackaged for international sales as 104 episodes of 45 minutes shows how far the material was stretched. In trying to hold drama, a legal strand and comedy together, that expansion produces a structure that is loose in places; the client cases sometimes enrich the main line and sometimes merely fill time. Even so, the performances of Gökçe Bahadır, Sumru Yavrucuk and Sarp Akkaya keep the dialogue-heavy scenes afloat, and the contrast between the four women gives it a well-built dramatic axis. A tighter edit would have made it far more effective, but it is an adaptation that largely lives up to its ambition.
