I hate it. Its genuinely the worst season of television in the last decade. Outside of GOT. Besides the writers are doing a Marvel style multiverse to explain the different GERALT. The writers don’t even know how to read because the Witcher franchise has many different worlds , not different versions of the same world. Plus if you know Blood Origin , you know Eredin Bréacc Glas , the king of the Wild Hunt is really non-threatening & is basically a joke so there is no hope of The show getting better. Things like this is why nobody cares about the writers & actors strike. They have really been making complete garbage tv shows recently. Willow , Rings of Power , Velma , Cleopatra , Blood Origin ,She Hulk & Secret Invasion. These are just the show's I can remember off the top of my head. There must be so many others. People are sick of watching terrible tv. Hollywood is determined to ruin it self & they have pissed the audience off so much that people are happy that they will be mostly gone

I think that what was going on behind the scenes between the writers and Henry Cavill was personal. The show runners took a personal dislike to Henry because of his love and passion for the role and its source material and his willingness to fight for it, but they couldn’t care less. The clash became inevitable. Henry saw the writing on the wall, decided this was a lost cause and left. It must’ve been painful for him after he campaigned hard to get on the show. He’s moved on now but I bet he’ll be more careful signing on to future projects next time around. Especially if it’s based on literary sources.

The writers/producers and their mommas could try to spin it any way they want, but after watching the season it only served to validate why Henry Cavill decided to leave. I no longer have to wonder, I GET IT. There was an an absolute disconnect between the books, the game and how the show started. What's made it worse was them not caring and actually thinking it was all going to work! And it could've worked had they not 1) disrespected the geek (Cavill) and 2) not gone the GOT route.

Have you even read the books? They are woke AF. They include bisexual characters (one of the main ones, no spoilers), consensual inter-species group sex, a big abortion subplot with clear pro-choice stances. The whole set-up of the world is based on inequality, discrimination and prejudices. Elves are thinly veiled as Jews (or maybe Roma), and treated similarly as these groups were in medieval and early modern time in Europe. Witchers are hated for what they are and what they do. Gnomes, dwarves and other creatures are also regularly mistreated and thought less of because of who they are. Nilfaard is brutal and imperial, but it does enforces equal treatment of non-humans. The story already had A LOT of progressive shit in it. All the series producers were to do was to embrace the things that were already there. Heck, they could have made the elves darker (going the route of Jews/Roma, one could justify making the elves and half-elves looking Semitic or Indian) and really lean into the discrimination. And they failed to show even the very basic thing like the witchers being disliked or even feared.

Having everyone's focus being on Ciri, breaking the hands of the fire mage but not killing him; but then making his mission about killing him I was like.... okay? Then Ciri getting protagonist headaches in episode 2, freeing the captive, and unable to go through the portal. The entire season just felt drawn out.

S1 was pretty good, after that was a slow and predictable descent into what can only be described as a 12 year old's clumsy self insert fan fiction.

I find it hard to accept that season 4 is finally gearing up to have one of the most action packed and thrilling story lines, but we will never have Henry as Geralt anymore. The fight with him and Vilgefortz and his final fight against Nilfgardian soldiers were the only saving grace of this horrible season.

Yeah they messed up Dandelion, got it all wrong, and this was a great video and review. Lauren H is a piece of ****. Thank you for your review. It would be nice if a different organization picked this up and did it right the next time. As a huge Witcher fan, im just stuck on how this turned out and the fact what we got, is all were going to get in the form of movie/tv. Ready for the next game to come out too.

Streg didn't have a 'redemption', he was just trying to use his magic to wipe out elves who he hated and discriminated against anyway. Nothing to cheer.

It is fine to actually adapt and implement new things, a TV series or movie should never be a 1:1 copy of the books, for obvious reasons. But changing the story itself and the character's sexual preferences, man is it dumb. Dandelion is a WOMANIZER, not a bisexual character. Also Dandelion is phylosophical and can always come with a clever comeback for every single roast. They added an elf for the story, ok, nothing against it, although that elf wasn't in the books or anywhere. But they made him absolutelly useless and forgettable, that is not how you introduce and keep a character. Time and pacing was also trash, Geralt's first meeting with Ciri was also a bad joke. In general, quite everything that Netflix has done is a pure bs. Changing character's colors/race (Triss, the most simple example) was also a bad move. Yennefer would have never traded Ciri for her fertility, just like Vesemir didn't force Ciri to give her blood or make her into a witcher. So, so much crap in the whole TV series that is just unbearable to watch any further. An author that says ye we are gonna respect the books and then butchers basically all of the books (plus the staff that hated the original story), bring an absolute disaster. Yes, you should change some things in the story, implement new ones, but NOT like that.

I did a google search on the 100 most watched shows for 2022/23. The list is full of police, medical and legal dramas. Fantasy is not popular - reaching #63 Quantum Leap, #81 House of the Dragon, #85 The Walking Dead. I only watch fantasy and sci-fi. So, yes, I am going to continue watching shows like The Witcher, Marvels, Mandalorian, RIngs of Power, Secret Invasion, Star Trek SNW, etc, despite these overly critical reviews. BTW, I have not read The Witcher books and I feel the show is acceptable entertainment.

I was hoping to find enough in this season to watch next season without Cavill, but no. The only thing that is stopping me from watching seasons after the one I just forced down, is the writing. When seeing the trailers for season 1, I will admit I was worried about Anya being a forced Yennifer. I hope her acting could keep up, because she's definitely stunning. IMO her acting is great, as well as most of the main cast. I would be happier if they just canceled the show, grabbed new writers, said, "we are writing a unique show about Ciri after the books. The lore will be our own and we will no longer taint the original".

I was surprised, the battle episode came first, then two slow-paced plot building episodes ready for Season IV. I haven't read the source material, i dont know that the episode with Ciri in the desert wilderness is quite literal to the books...but to me it was drawn out far too long, it was clear the character building moment and how it would develop her character, so why it was spread over 45-50mins vs. a 5min recap. Comparing that to how swiftly the battle moved, Stregobor's move to redemption arc for example, was washed over in about 10 frames, never mind minutes.

I think Henry Cavil did the right thing and got out of the omni shambles that The Witcher became. I am not at all interested in what becomes Ciri or Yenefer for that matter. The soul of the show - Henry Cavil - has departed and with him a lot of viewers I fear. Part of the fault is with the writers not developing the plot successfully and part to do with the calibre of the supporting actors.

These last few episodes did it for me 😡 having to sit though an entire episode while that girl walked though a desert by herself...I can't believe I wasted an entire hour on that BULLSH*T! The beginning of season 3 was bad enough but what they've done now...I've never been so bored in my life! they obviously had no script but they just wanted to stretch it out anyway. the last 3 episodes were absolutely HORRIBLE!

Stopped watching the series for good after episode 3 of season 3. Won't waste any more of my time. The writing is atrocious. It's already a terrible adaptation, but even if it was an original concept, the writing is still so awful. Why didn't Geralt just kill Reince? lol For a show called, 'The Witcher', Geralt is barely featured. Rather, the writers have been trying to recreate a pseudo-GoT style of world building and they are failing miserably. It's incredibly boring. The first season of this show should have just been Geralt going around and taking Witcher contracts and killing various monsters while meeting a few friendly faces. Nothing overarching. Instead, the show is incredibly overbearing.

I quit my Netflix account by January this year. After that abomination called Blood Origin - I thankfully didn't care to watch at all - I refused to pay that company any more money. And when Henry said he was quitting after Season 3 due to lack of quality - how low could it get when Season 2 was already a low point for the Witcher Universe?

I watched it last night. What a mess. Aimless, drifting rubbish, then 50 minutes too long of Ciri on a desert quest, then packing way too much set-up into the last episode with two of the best fight scenes in the entire season, and new characters, so it's finally getting vaguely interesting and... stop. Whoever cast Zhang Meng'er as the dryad should be fired and have streaming losses deducted in perpetuity. She's awful. Can't act, wooden action, no emotion, and her diction and delivery are dire. As they were in Shang-Chi. Nothing about this show works.

The biggest problem of the Season 3 is ... Season 2. They tried to fix as much as possible. I was ready to finish with Henry, Freya's last scene with her amazing "Call me Falka" make me to think about giving S4 a chance. May be I'm to easy to be satisfied after S2, Ciri's cream from Yennefer in Korath did the job well. As in lore.

I said when when the credits ran on season 2 episode 2 I wanted this show to fail, badly. So I’m ecstatic it’s going down the pan, I celebrated when Cavill left. His reputation was taking a hit for staying. You can’t be ‘king of the nerds’ and stay in that job. 90% of this fan base only love Cavill, before he announced his leaving they were telling us book readers to stfu and consume. So rightly, it has been glorious to watch it all burn down. Didn’t watch a single second of season 3, glad I didn’t. I’ve been listening to the books again at work and plying the games again and it’s glorious.

I am not very familiar with the original material (books and games), but I enjoyed season 1 for the characters, the twisted plot and the good action. Season 2 had its moments but felt lengthy at times. The first part of season 3 I have forgotten already even though I watched it just 3 weeks ago. Might have continued to finish the rest just out of habit, but with that gap of a few weeks I didn't restart and probably I never will.

Three lines from Game of Thrones, at least. What Philippa says about Tissaia during Episode 5 when she's talking to Yennefer... this stuff about 'the sweet poison of love that kills nonetheless' that's Game of Thrones too... Cersei Lannister to Sansa somewhere in Season 2 I think. ;)
