...not so much. The first season worked because for the most part there was separate plot/purpose for most all episodes. There was usually something for The Witcher to beat, kill, or capture as he was more of a bounty hunter. There was a developing story weaving its way thru season one, but it didn't take away from the individuality of each episode. In season 2, there's an overarching story that took center stage and made for a boring drawn out show. Also, Jaskier, the comic relief, didn't have as big of a role in season 2. It should have been the opposite.
