We made it through four episodes before I gave up. My husband and I both enjoy the video games and I really like the book series. That said, I had several problems with this adaptation.

1. Henry Cavill is too pretty to be Geralt. I know he was probably cast because he's a Witcher super fan and a decent actor, but he's just not right. And honestly, his acting seems a little lazy. There is so much grunting.... 2. The non-linear story telling is very difficult to follow for anyone who has not read the books. I had to pause and explain to my husband a few times what part of the timeline we had jumped to. 3. The liberties taken are unnecessary. Why not just tell the story? They cut out massive parts from the books and added others. And I understand that TV and books are different media. But the way they changed things just doesn't make sense to me. 4. So much nudity. I'm no prude, but come on guys. Netflix is just trying to outdo HBO I guess when it comes to gratuitous, unnecessary sexual content. The moments that the books gloss by in passing get turned into minutes-long scenes.
