Me! Overall I enjoyed it. I was very confused until I figured out the timeline situation.
It felt like I was missing stuff or they were trying to fit too much in. I haven’t read the book or played the game so I suppose that might have helped.
It should also be called Yennefer instead of Witcher because she had way more character development.

I watched a couple of episodes with H. I like the bard more than the Witcher personally.

I actually figured out the timeline thing right away, but all the pieces didn't click for me until like the second to last episode.
Jaskier (the bard) is a great character. I like his comic relief.
I looooove Yennefer. I love how ambitious and unapologetic she is.
Ciri fell flat for me. I found her mostly annoying.

I started watching because my H wanted to, but four episodes in and it’s grown on me. I don’t like graphic violence much in anything but the characters are interesting and the way all the stories are starting to come together is keeping me watching. Henry Cavill being damn easy on the eyes doesn’t hurt either.

We enjoyed it.
My SIL read all the books and she loved it!

Bump. Anyone watching tonight? I have so much going on the week before Christmas! I don't know if I'll get a chance to this week. Me! I’m so far behind on tv. I need to watch Hawkeye. I’m slowly watching Wheel of Time but it’s hard to schedule since I’m watching with friends and one is on the west coast. Who knows when I’ll get to see the new Spider-Man. So many things!

I forgot this was starting again. We're currently doing the weekly thing with Hawkeye and Young Justice, so I'm not sure when we'll get to this. Lakes, are you liking Wheel of Time? H is a huge fan of the books and he only lasted about 15 minutes before he had to turn it off because of the changes.

The Witcher’s off to a good start. I watched the first two episodes and want to watch more.

athn64 Oh I think it’s pretty bad. But it’s fun to have a watch party and snark about it. I wouldn’t be watching it if it wasn’t for my friends. We read the books in high school. I know a couple people who haven’t read the books that are enjoying it though. I’m just watching it for Lan at this point because he’s a hottie and I loved him in the books.

I’m 4 episodes in and enjoying it. The dock guard criticizing Jaskier’s song was amazing and highlighted all the complaints about season one, especially the timeline hopping. It made me laugh so hard.

I finished Season 2 and liked it. I want to watch Season 1 again since it’s been so long.
Things I liked: Geralt and Jaskier’s continuing bromance Yennifer and Fringilla being badasses even if I sometime hated them for doing the wrong thing. That there was still some “monster of the day” aspect and it didn’t focus solely on the political intrigue.
I don’t really like the elf storyline. Francesca doesn’t hold my interest at all.

Jaskier’s hair is annoying me this season. I like the old hairstyle better.

There's a lot of speculation along those lines, though I don't know if we'll ever know for sure.
