Allowing the broadcast of such a TV series was "a kind of a social escape, because of citizens who are facing pressuring conditions, especially at the economic level," said a Syrian viewer who asked not to be identified.
However, the Syrian producers said their series was different because of its broader focus on "the cultural, political and economic implications of this conflict."
