The Witcher

I loved it.

I thought the switching back and forth through time aspect wasn't much of a negative issue and was even positive—oddly. I hadn't paid much attention to some of the early clues so I had no clue it was switching around so much heh. Until I suddenly realized something was off about the timing. (A certain scene involving a weird dance is what did it for me. Was that episode 4? There might have been an earlier case involving a...hedge hog? Porcupine? I don't remember which came first, although I think the dance revealed to me very strongly that there were three different timelines.) That was just a momentary glitch for me; but it caused me to reconsider various things I'd already watched to that point. For me, the positive aspect of this switching around is the way it allowed them to focus on each of the characters in turn; each character was in his/her bubble of time, and these bubbles could be compared. I suppose I'm saying that was unexpectedly nice for me, since I didn't have to worry so much about the "overarching plot" from beginning to end. It was all very character-based.

 

When they announced they were doing a Witcher TV show I was sceptical. But I loved it, being a massive Witcher fan reading all the books, playing all the games and doing my own research on the lore I was really happy with how it was done, a few minor errors here and there but other than that I was mega happy with it and gutted we have to wait so long for the next season and I actually prefer Henry Cavil as Geralt to Superman.
