I disliked the pilot of this show - but the second episode was much better. With the tone set the characters begin to be explored more. The sets and costumes and castle imagery get a lot better. There are some fun creatures and some characters I like. The actor who plays Witcher really holds the show together too. Some great fight choreography and solid world building. I know nothing about the games, books, and so I just have this show to go on. I liked what I watched.
