Having no previous knowledge of the Witcher (having never played the games) I loved the first season, and if I were marking that alone it would have been a solid 9 - but boy did it go downhill after that.

The second season was definitely a backward step, with a poor, hard to follow plot.

The third season really is a load of nonsense. A combination of poor writing, an awful plot with huge holes that makes it very hard to understand what's going on and why, and moments where you just cringe at how bad it is.

No wonder Henry Cavill wanted to leave. It's such a shame after such a good first season.
