The initial two seasons were passable, with some promise. However, the third season proves to be a complete squandering of time. It fails to evoke any genuine emotions, not even passion between Yennefer and Geralt. The plot twists are lame, failing to provide any unsuspecting turns that would keep viewers on the edge of their seats. The script itself is poorly constructed, devoid of creativity and imagination. Without prior knowledge of the book's story, this adaptation becomes nearly unwatchable. The overwhelming abundance of bewildering names, territories, kingdoms, and characters only adds to the confusion. Is this the new direction entertainment is taking? I sincerely hope this is not a prevailing trend. What we truly yearn for is the immersion effect, eagerly awaiting the next episode, and being wholly captivated by the unfolding narrative. We long for the days of Game of Thrones' first six seasons, where every episode was a gripping masterpiece. I have added an additional 2 stars solely for the exceptional talent of the actors; they are truly outstanding. However, even their brilliant performances could not overshadow the pervasive flaws of the plot.
