So strange - IMDb only lists seven episodes of "Son (The End)", but Netflix has 49, all under Season 1. The first 20 or so are about 47 minutes each in length, but the remainder about 28 minutes. Lots to watch!

Great acting by all, good casting, especially central character Erkan Can and Engin Altan Düzyatan who plays his younger brother. Beautiful homes, offices and scenery. New Year's Eve I was binge watching the series, enjoying seeing parts of Turkey we rarely see on American television.

An upstairs restaurant location halfway through resembles the Reina nightclub on the Bosphorus Strait. Just then I switched to the news and there was the terrible attack in Istanbul - almost thought I was dreaming.

Agree with the previous review that the beginning episodes are a bit confusing when they switch back to various years, but eventually it all makes sense. Well worth watching.
