Fortune (Servet) (translated)

TV Series · 2018 · 7 people

Show TV began airing the Turkish series Servet ("Fortune") on April 12, 2018. A romantic drama, it rests on the idea that in a world chasing wealth, the only real fortune is love. Produced by Ortaks Yapım, it was short-lived: it missed the expected audience, only four episodes aired, and it ended on May 3, 2018.

The story follows two young people whose fates cross. Ferah Feza is one of the thousands of young people who turn eighteen each year and have to leave their dormitory, yet she is not alone: she has a large family she does not even know about, and wealth beyond imagining. Can Yiğit is 29 and, like Ferah, lost his parents early; he grew up under the wing of one of the country's important businessmen and was able to do whatever he wished. This ruling family holds money and influence few can reach, and Can and Ferah end up in the middle of a fight over a vast fortune that cannot be shared.

Emir Khalilzadeh directed and Murat Boyacıoğlu wrote the script. Bahar Şahin (Ferah Feza) and Yusuf Çim (Can Yiğit) lead.

Through different eyes

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

Servet's biggest problem is that it never gets the chance to tell its story. When it missed its expected audience, only four episodes aired before it ended on May 3, 2018, which leaves little room to talk about character arcs. The crossed fates of Ferah, who must leave her dormitory unaware of a large family and great wealth, and Can, who lost his parents early, promised a good start for a long-running show. I would have liked to watch the chemistry between Bahar Şahin and Yusuf Çim grow. As it stands, it's an unfinished story, and worth starting with that in mind.

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

Servet is a romantic drama that, by its subject, suits watching with the family. Its message is simple and nice: while everyone chases money and property, the real fortune is love. The story of a young girl who has to leave her dormitory can speak to teenagers too. But the show ended after four episodes, so the story stays short. Fine if you want something brief; just don't expect too much.

Yeşilçam Nostalgic A viewer raised on the classics, looking for warm storytelling and strong acting.

At heart Servet rests on one of Yeşilçam's favorite themes: a girl thought to be alone in the world with a large family and great wealth behind her, and love growing in the shadow of money. The idea that the real fortune is love recalls the moral center of the old melodramas, and that is a warming idea. Yet the series lasted only four episodes; on so short a journey it is nearly impossible to bond with the characters the way the old films let us. A lovely seed that was never given the chance to grow.
