    Very messy. A lot is supposedly happening, but all the subplots lead to a very underwhelming conclusion. Henry Cavill's send-off was anti-climatic.

    ''I'm confused'' thats what most people will be thinking during these episodes. The writing is so chaotic, more so than the rest of the season. I'd say the other episodes were pretty good, but these last 3 are garbage. Cavil is doing his best with what he's given, but the producers and writers clearly were busy with other things

    Sometimes it’s nice to just let a show cook, and The Witcher continues to make weird meals with its oodles of diabolical double crosses and inevitable “there’s a spell for that” moments that bang the story off in another new direction. (Seriously, there are portals everywhere.) There’s a bit of uncertainty creeping in, given the backstage drama of Cavill’s departure. But everybody else in this series is fully invested and really, really good.

    The finale, meanwhile, has some beautiful moments here and there. Once again, plenty of our cast shine, with some threads being wonderfully tied together. Cavill's final scenes are, unfortunately, somewhat inconsequential, and while the very final moments of the season set up season 4, we have to wonder how much viewers really care.

    If nothing else, this season, which has placed so much emphasis on the loving relationships between its core three characters, has distilled what made Cavill so wonderful for the role.
