    Paytakht is awesome and funny.

    I guess just an Iranian person can understand how much funny this series is. Specifically because of the character's accent.

    I really like it and i have many memories with it. Watching it always makes me laugh.

    When the show begins, the whole family come to hall and sit in the front of TV to watch, no matter if they were busy with doing something else. It always makes us gather together and happy.

    My dad can't stop re-watching its seasons. He almost have memorized all the naghi's dialogs. Even in NEWS GP (a telegram group) when the series begins, most members are chatting about it and laugh with every single dialog. That's just a little part of our interest in this series. Thanks to all people who made paytakht.

    Iranian culture

    Really good series to know about the culture of the people in the North of Iran with funny stories.

    Family and life

    Although the name of the series was named based on the first season, but overall it was an interesting name.

    One of the positive points of the series was that the tone, atmosphere of the series, family relationships and other details were different from the capital and dedicated to the north.

    The series was really a comedy and was very successful in this field and made the audience laugh.

    One of the most important points that made it successful was showing people's lives, I mean that it correctly shows the problems of common people, their way of life, jobs, family relationships, hardships and problems and other details, and this is what made this series become popular In the series, we had tragic moments, failure, crying and hardship, and these points were shown in the form of a comedy and had a great impact.

    Another thing I liked was that this series had several seasons and I like that more Iranian series are made like this instead of single season series.
