Harry L @RT97322660 22h The writers and producers clearly hated that the main character was male. If the Witcher really had been a character focused deep level story following Geralt (perfectly acted by Cavill) with his travelling companion Dandelion we could have had a gritty, funny, exciting and meaningful show. Instead we got this. The irony is that the most important People in Geralt's life are with the exception of dandelion BOTH excellent female characters.

When the characters started telling their stories through "blah blah" it was a complete face palm! Hey, screenwriters, did they teach you in school that a character is revealed through action?

Staying loyal to source material is a must not to please the fans, but because every scene in a book is a mechanical device with a clear purpose, like pieces of an engine. Before you start tearing apart a V10 Twin Turbo engine, you better know what each piece does and why it is there, and if you are going to replace them with your own homemade bricolage, you better know an awful lot about engineering. Otherwise, the whole thing is going to blow up on your face, which is what happened when the the writers tried to jam their own amateur cliché stories and unintelligent characters inside the powerful and well oiled machine that was the original plot.

It was entertaining and did what it needed to do as a fantasy series. Out of curiosity, I ended up watching a YouTube video about the backlash and the differences from the books, and I can see why fans feel strongly. When you love the source material, changes can be tough. That said, judging the show on its own, I really enjoyed the season. It felt like a solid continuation of the earlier ones, and I ended up binge-watching the whole thing. Liam isn’t Henry, but the supporting cast really helped carry the season. Liam did a solid job, though he didn’t quite feel like the central character this time around. There were a lot of parallel storylines, and the showrunners did a great job diving into the backstories of the main characters, which I actually really enjoyed.

I was deeply invested in the Withcher story line for the first three seasons until the 4th one became utterly horrid compared to its previous seasons. Then the storyline and vibe was drastically changed. It felt dead compared to the first three seasons. See more Read all reviews
