This felt magical and had a fairy tale feel with twists.
Pulls at the heart strings. Explores friendships and temptations. Beauty and the beast.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The best episode in the season and the only one that has anything to do with books. Vereena is creepy as hell, good job.
Sadly, other episodes were closer to a trashcan than to the witcher books.… Expand

Based episode of the 2nd season, there are some changes to the book's story but the episode saves the Witcher vibe and Ciri's addition is a good thing, partially compensating for Geralt's removal from the Brokilon forest. Almost every change in next episodes will be atrocious sadly.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This episode could have been a good starting point for the rest of the season.

That's the only negative I can see.… Expand

A charming adaptation of the short story, which retains the dark and gritty realities of the world in which our characters live.

Easily the best episode of the season, so enjoy it!

The best episode of the season. Beautiful, consistent and worth watching. Possibly the only episode worth your time from this season.

Really just don't watch the rest, it's just waffle that uses jaskir as cheap comic relief.

This is what people were expecting when turning the book into a movie. It isn't as good as the book, but there is actually substance and enjoyment, which the rest of the show just doesn't contain.

I was too dumb to understand plot, please dumb it down more. +1 point because of Henry Cavill still beeing Geralt.
