If you are looking for a light-hearted yet pretty cool action series, watch seasons 1 and 2. There are "deep" concepts but the subject matter doesn't reach the level of "gritty." This 3rd season is completely different. It kind of feels like the culture wars are at play here with the characters' personalities and looks completely changing. This new Witcher seems more of a Greys Anatomy meets Shadow and Bone mixture than the original book series. Gone are all the monsters, replaced by the drama of relationships between the characters. It doesn't even feel like Geralt de Rivia is the main character, giving way to Yennefer's inner demons and Jaskier's love life.
