Galip Derviş

TV Series · 2013–2014 · 40 people

Barakuda Film produced Galip Derviş for Kanal D, a crime-comedy series with drama elements that adapts the American series Monk for Turkish television. Its title character is a detective who lost his wife five years earlier and has an obsessive-compulsive personality. In every episode he cracks a different case through remarkable attention to detail and intelligence, and the show blends the classic detective format with mostly comic storytelling. The series ran for three seasons and ended with its 56th episode.

The story follows a man shadowed by grief and compulsions as he works through criminal cases. The cast is large: Algı Eke, Arzu Yanardağ, Ayşenil Şamlıoğlu, Aysun Metiner, Bahtiyar Engin and Bihter Dinçel are among those listed. Each episode brings a new case, leaving room for many players.

The series began on March 21, 2013 and finished its first season on June 20, 2013. It first aired on Thursdays at 23:00; later two episodes were shown back to back at 20:00. Season two began on October 3, 2013, later moved to Saturday and Sunday nights, and ended on May 25, 2014. Season three began on October 19, 2014, and producer Mahmut Kayımtu announced that the finale would air on December 28, 2014.

Through different eyes

AI-assisted editorial takes written from different viewer perspectives. They are not reader reviews; those are below.

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

A detective comedy with a new case every episode: an easy choice for the family. Galip Derviş has lost his wife and is obsessive but smart, and the show softens that with comedy. Young and old can watch the same episode. The theme of grief adds a sad note at times, and little ones may need an explanation. By the end of each episode everything is solved, which is reassuring. Good for weekend evenings.

Cinephile Looks at script, editing and directing choices; keeps a distance from formula films.

As the Turkish adaptation of Monk, the real question is how the same template works in another culture. A new case every episode and an obsessive detective blend the classic detective format with comedy. The case-of-the-week structure leaves little room to work through a deeper vein such as grief and compulsion; once each case closes, the show resets. Meanwhile a large cast rotates between episodes, which makes deeper characterization harder. A fun piece of template work, but do not look for an original cinematic language.

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

Galip Derviş is a man in mourning who never lets go of his intelligence, and I find that human side of the series warm. The comedy is not crude here, and the cases solved episode by episode keep one occupied. Still, it is an adaptation of Monk; the emotional weight of the classic Turkish films is not here. The story stays light, something that makes you smile. A fit with the evening tea, for viewers who are not looking for a deep impact.
