I'm a fan of the Witcher universe. I've long been fascinated by fantasy worlds such as J. R. R Tolkien's, Rick Riordan's and for the past few years, Witcher's.

The first season of this show wasn't great. I watched all of it and only the first few episodes were good, when Geralt wasn't dragging a random girl, Ciri, around. The second season similar in quality, except this time you don't get a break from Ciri.

I wanted to watch Geralt be a badass, wandering around and killing monsters. The creators of this show just forced a botched love story into the plot and now we've got to watch Yennefer doing her completely unrelated and uninteresting thing while only half the time we get to see Geralt, most of which is just him babysitting Ciri.

I seriously don't care about Yennefer's story here. It's got nothing to do with the main plot of the show, acting more like a distraction.

I haven't ever before paid much attention to the acting, but this show motivated me to look closer at it. It's unconvincing, being more reminiscent of Star Wars, which was perhaps good acting back in the day, but nowadays isn't satisfactory anymore.

The whole second season I had to watch with phone in hand, and I even started to write this review during an episode.

In conclusion, this show has been quite a disappointment. Though it does display the fantastic world if Witcher quite well, the acting and the characters in this story are unconvincing and dull. Yennefer's sidetrack is nothing more than a mere distraction from Geralt's story and Ciri is an annoying and useless sidekick, ruining most of the time we get to watch Geralt. On a more lighter note, at least my dogs found the show interesting, barking at it and watching it every once in a while.
