1st episode. Half of the time - poor script, directing, acting. With unnecessary nonsense such as queen's exercises with sword at battlefield: why, why would a ruler get itself into a mess instead of managing it's troops? Motivation, you say. Ok, does queen has no generals? Someone who spend one half of their life in battles and other half honing sword fighting skills? Big musculed figures who can efficiently wield that really heavy pointy thing?! Suppose, Calanthe mastered sword fight at acceptable level for any reason, but she didn't have this bodytype. And, as i understand, good ruler would have way too many problems to deal with to lose time trying to double bodystrength. This is not one-to-one, not a duel, this is sword fight at battlefield, you need muscles, Carl!

Next. I can accept different skin color in the same race, even it's confusing. But spears! In hands of dryads! Practicly allways. WHY?

Next. What have they made with Geralt? He casts admonitory glances, he sighes, he fishes geenies at lake with toy net. Why, oh, why?!

For right now, episode 5, i like the "other half" of acting (not script): Renfri, Calanthe, Eist, poor Eist, they butchered his character, Mousesack. Yes, Geralt is strong, a joy-for-eye, sexy, with practicly right voice. He moves reeeally awesome during the bout. Yet too sentimental, too exposed. Too ... common?

6, 7 episodes. Ah, nope, Cavill just pushes too hard.

And 7th episode is total wtf and where's your logic?

Yennefer, funny, she's better than i expected after trailer. Younger than she should be, so too much youthful arrogance instead of adult mage's overconfidence. Know what? I like this Yenn. Her plotline is insult, still actress did good job. Triss had not much screen time, yet, she speaks and acts lively, she's willful and canny.

Ciri is ... definitely not 12. She's almost not existing, would've made good witcher. That's not right.

And Jaskier. Finally, this is 10 out of 10. "Toss a coin to your witcher")) Nnnnice!

Probably, if i didn't read the books, would've watch the series anyway. When nothing else is on screen. If only remembered idea from one old sci-fi story: time isn't existing. Everything happening at the same moment. Our perception creates timeline, blah, blah, etc.

8th episode left me disapointed. You know that feeling: something wonderful awaits right behind the coner? Mghm, it wasn't there. Seeme, even didn't plan to be there.

And we got one more reason to watch this show -mr. landlord, Currie Graham! How is it possible that guy in his fifties has such alluring, unearthly voice? How is it possible in any age?

Only two good things there is in this outburst: secondary sex characteristics of female lead and athletic shirtless figure of male lead. But even this frivolous, yet evanescent values gets annulled by everyone's, including hers, constant wailings and his unbelievably stupid behavior. Trashy trash, don't waste your time.
