Golden Boy (2022– )
5/10
No romance just constant degradation of women
1 February 2023
This show has a wonderful cast and it's soundtrack is great. The first eight episodes are fast paced and well directed. But that's all that's good about this show.

Firstly the series has not been marketed properly it's not a love story nor does it seem to be inspired from true events. It's a twisted tale of a young woman forced into marriage with a narcissistic man who has no respect for her. She for some strange reason falls in love with him.

In every episode the writer uses clichés and scenes copy pasted from other tv shows like adini Feriha koydum which makes it hard to believe it's inspired from true events. In every episode the male character cheats on the heroine or humiliates her. Yet she forgives him without a word of apology from him. Even after nineteen episodes the male character shows no signs of development. The makers of this show by trying to romanticise their relationship make everything appear even more ridiculous.

Besides the main characters almost every other female is a victim of abuse and almost every male character an abuser. It's frustrating seeing this amount of cruelty against women with not a single one able to stand up for herself. I am downgrading it to one star. There's not one single character who isn't violent towards women. Even the main character's best friend tries to strangle a woman in a fit of rage. This show should be banned .
