Visually the show looks good most of the time, although some of the CGI creatures look surprisingly bad for a big show like this.

The show's biggest problem is the writing. It's messy, sloppy, and frankly pretty untalented. The show also deviates drastically from the source material in every possible way, and for no seemingly good reason. It doesn't improve the original story, but instead trades solid themes for weaker ones.

Just the fact that a show named The Witcher turns out not to be about the Witcher, and instead gradually switches focus to one of the side-characters shows how little regard the writers have for the books they've chosen to adapt.

Despite the high production value, decent visuals, and good work by Henry Cavill, the weak and confusing writing makes The Witcher boring and forgettable.
