    The series is about a homicide detective, the people around him and his mental state.This series is very well executed, all questions get answers. There are even a few plot twists that I didn't see coming. The characters are believable, and they are acted skillfully. It captures the social conflicts in Turkey well. The murder cases are usually interesting. It is one of the best shows I've ever watched, a list that includes many expensive Hollywood productions. It was actually very surprising that I'd like a show from Turkey this much.There are a few negative points however, for which people who consider watching this should prepare themselves. First, there is a lot of swearing. This is made worse by the censorship enforced by Turkish TV. All the swearing is bleeped out, so sometimes it feels like you are listening to a voice-over by R2D2. Some visual elements are censored as well, such as alcoholic drinks later in the show. As the last point, English subtitles are not very well translated. You'll get the point, but sometimes how something is said is important to capture the depth of the scene, which is typically lost.All in all, I'd recommend this to anyone who are interested in a police drama.

    Sincerity, Mystery, Drama, Comedy, Ankara, Detective. More than one array, separate. Are you going to another world. unusual for a Turkish series will capture your soul. The characters are all like one of us. They are not made up nor irrational. And this novel based show, is the best of it's genre in Turkey by far. The leading role is quite charismatic, reckless, smart and good-hearted character but he's still perfectly natural. he doesn't use unrealistically expensive phones, he doesn't wear different clothes in each scene. They focus on the story which consists of crime scenes with secrets and enigmas in Behzat C's psychological situation and history.

    Behzat Ç.one of the best realistic shows in Turkey maybe the best.As writers says:what's happening in life it must be in Behzat Ç. to because of that the show has pressures from a lot of different organizations so producers decided to end the show in 100 episodes.You can see reality in everywhere from Actors's language to extras-es.Behzat Ç. is fiction part of the show.He's a police who doesn't care politic,religion,ideology.He's just want to do his job.He also just watch documentaries in TV(i guess there's a joke behind it to) but in that job you can't escape from politics and some dark relationships when show gone forward Behzat finds himself a lot of dirty jobs,danger,puzzles and of course murders.It's really hard to review about Behzat Ç. but in the end I just can say a great Drama including great writers,actors and great puzzles.I don't know what more can i say but i know a year later from now.We all feel emptiness of Behzat Ç. its very special and hard to fill its spot.

    Behzat Ç. is basically about the adventures of a homicide detective and his squad in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey. The series are adapted from the novels of Emrah Serbes (Her Temas İz Bırakır and Son Hafriyat) and directed by famous Turkish film director Serdar Akar, known with his movies Gemide, Dar Alanda Kısa Paslaşmalar, Barda and Kurtlar Vadisi Irak. Erdal Besikcioglu is the star of the series. He previously performed in Turkish movies Vali, Eve Giden Yol and Bal as well as various TV series (Ayrılık, Köprü, Es Es) although he is originally a theater actor. The series enjoyed a widespread popularity especially among the Turkish youth because of its realistic dialogs (also including the use of slang) showing the injustices and controversies in juridical system and law enforcement agency. Stories also touch upon some political discussions and criticize chauvinism.
