Had exceptionally high hopes for Witcher and season 1 is good. But series 2 and 3 have nosedived off a cliff. Cavill and the special effects are what has redeemed this from 1/10 to a 2/10.

What's most unforgivable is theyve managed to muddle the source material. Ive read the books and have no clue what on earth is going on anymore. Netflix and Lauren Schmidt have constructed a noose for their own necks by flicking between the books and their own disastrous "creative" ideas.

Season 2 takes the most creative liberties and as such was universally hated. So season 3 tries to awkwardly navigate back to the books but they're now in this awkward limbo of staying book true but maintaining the awkward plot they established in season 2. The result being the confusing hot mess that looks glossy but is confusing and at worst, just boring. It pains me to say it but this series needs cancelling before more damage is done. I truly believe this series could've had the potential to be on par with Game Of Thrones but they had to meddle with the formula. Instead we're left with a confusing series that has no idea what it wants to be and doesn't appeal to newcomers or the loyalists that know the source material.
