Mainly because they're trying to pass Geralt as some badass rock star. His character resembles more Jax from sons of anarchy than that of Geralt of Rivia i've read about. Cavil makes a good effort, but that's about it. I wasn't really expecting much, probably still a better show than I was hoping for, still could have been a lot better. I also don't get the whole comparison thing between this show and GOT, apart from the fact that both fall under the genre of Fantasy they're totally different things. This show looks really "cheap" compared even to the first season of GOT.
