the novel itself shines. the series sucks.

perfect!

I have watched this several times and never get tired of it. A great series based on Iraj Pezeshkzad's masterpiece with the same name. A must see for all Iranian. It is a journey deep into the conspiracist Iranian's mind, Gholamhossein Naghshineh and almost all other main characters are great. Very funny and one of the most meaningful series ever maid, an all time favorite.
