I enjoyed it. Fun seeing the Witcher universe in this format. It doesn't suffer from being overly pretentious.

Seems a lot of folks don't appreciate a show for it's purely entertainment value. Regardless, I'm of a different mind! I love this show, it's captivating, funny, and all around good entertainment!

And although I am a huge JRR Tolkien fan, I'd take this series over the new Lord of the Rings, any day!… Expand

A great series. It complements the main series very well. It's a shame it's so short tho

I just finished all four episodes, and I have to say, I loved it. I don’t understand some of the closed-minded, negative reviews for this show, but quite frankly, who cares? Art is subjective. Did I mention how much I liked it? There was action, romance, love, revenge, heartbreak, excitement, sadness, elves, monsters, and badass women! It was creative, imaginative, well-written and well-acted. The cinematography was beautiful and the fight scenes were nicely choreographed. Great show by Netflix. Can’t wait to see the upcoming season.… Expand

This is a fantastic mini-series. The characters are engaging and fun. The scenery is amazing and the costumes are brilliant. The negative reviews are unwarranted and you have to question the reasons behind them.

Enough with the review bombing from people who are angry this show has a diverse ensemble cast, or fans who have beef with the main Witcher show. Please just let normal people write real reviews and let other people decide for themselves if they want to watch! This is four hours of good fantasy fun. The visuals effects and sets are high quality, the acting is good with a real standout performance from Francesca Mills as Meldorf. I didn't expect to tear up but I did twice. I am not familiar with the Witcher other than watching the other show, so I think not carrying that baggage is helpful. While the script and storyline aren't going to win any awards, they aren't bad I don't think the goal was to win awards. This is just food for fantasy fans: funny, fun, good fighting, good pacing/action alongside poignant moments, and relatable characters. It explained the "conjunction of spheres" to someone (like me) who doesn't get it but heard it talked about in the main show. It also had some cool original songs woven in that were sung by a bard, to which I give two thumbs up. I would love to see more Meldorf if they do another miniseries in this same time period or earlier.… Expand

Very woke and very modern - in the first 7 minutes of the show a female maims and kills a whole tavern of men. If you enjoy this sort of thing, coupled with subpar acting and poor writing, perhaps this show is for you. For me it has no relevance to the universe of Geralt, and in no way hearkens back to the source material. Not worth my time..… Expand

I understand that many hardcore lore people dont like it, but as an separated additional content it is no bad production. It even is very entertaining.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I never look at anyone's grades. I even liked the movie. I am not one of those who look for a hole in everything, although I know books well. It's for fun, not comparison. A very touching ending.… Expand
