The Witcher

the Bard was good. I was sad to see him part ways.

Agreed. After Yennefer’s tits, I thought he was the best part.

Was the bard supposed to be Dandelion? I didn’t here him referred to by name.

yes

The ’Toss A Coin To Your Witcher’ Song Has Grown Into A Monster Of Our Own Making

“Toss A Coin” initially surfaces in second episode, which begins with Jaskier (whose name translates from Polish into “buttercup,” although “Dandelion” is his game incarnation) first encounters Geralt brooding alone in a pub corner.

'The Witcher': Henry Cavill Netflix fantasy is so bad, it's fantastic

It is a fun show. Entertaining enough

Reviewer is clearly ignorant of the source material. I do agree with him on the flashbacks and how confusing they are... A few times I was like, "Wait, I thought this already happened..."... Because it had...

it definitely jumps around and can be confusing if you aren't paying attention.

I am glad they didn't make it straight forward to cater to the people who are looking at their phones or whatever throughout the show. Pay attention and you can follow it pretty easily.

It took me a few episodes to catch on to the time jumps (see me early take post). And having characters who essentially do not age due to magic just adds to that confusion.

Don’t get me wrong. I think the confusion was intentional. I think they wanted to make the timeline a bit “fuzzy”.

Just switched to an IPhone and while trying to download a tolerable ringtone, noticed that one of the top downloaded ringtones IS....

....'Toss a Coin to Your Witcher'

No... I didn't pick that one.

Fuckin loved the show. Tits and violence is a combination that never fails. Can’t wait for season 2, considering playing through the game series or reading the novels of either is worthwhile.

I liked how each episode is Geralt fighting a monster, so there isn't really any filler episodes where they are building a story...you have to pick it up on your own while there is still a good amount of action going on.

Heheh... Tits, violence and a good story is what made the video games so popular! Don’t know of another video game with full on nudity with sex scenes.

Yeah, it has individual stories within the overarching story (Which they have only scratched the surface on)...

I know nothing of the books or video game and I liked it. It is funny that before going into battle the witches seem to have had a conference and said "Ok, girls, let's get on our tightest fitting clothes showing plenty of cleavage" rather than maybe some armor to guard against a loose arrow.

Did you notice every male witch was completely incompetent? I just can't trust male witches or nurses. Damn tokens is what they are

This one makes everything a bit clearer, IMO.
