All Seasons Of The Witcher & Blood Origin, Ranked
The Witcher franchise is a popular fantasy story beloved by many, but certain installments of the Netflix series and its spin-off, The Witcher: Blood Origin, are better than others. Based on The Witcher books by Andrzej Sapkowski and the video game series, Netflix’s adaptation follows the journey of monster hunter Geralt of Rivia.
Blood Origin is rather formulaic and introduces a series of new characters, but these figures aren’t developed enough. The show does start to delve into why the characters are who they are, but it’s only a tease, and it doesn’t progress any further. For example, Michelle Yeoh provides a fantastic performance as the last member of the Ghost Clan, Scían, but she has little purpose other than to take part in a few sword fights.
3 The Witcher Season 3 Geralt's Ultimate Test Close Unfortunately, The Witcher season 3 simply doesn’t hold up to the previous two installments of the show. The decline in quality happens in several areas, and while it does still have its strengths, season 3 is generally considered the weakest of the bunch. The visual effects are an immediately obvious issue. They’re undoubtedly ambitious, but the execution lacks some polish.
Gallatin is quite one-dimensional and only really serves to help get Cahir back on the side of the emperor. Radovid’s relationship with Jaskier is intriguing, but considering that in the books, they are supposed to be 40 and 12, and the show alters the ages, it's just weird.
✕ Remove Ads The biggest letdown is the story, which season 3 also struggles with, but mainly because of season 2’s failings. Some parts of the narrative are especially exciting, like Geralt and Ciri’s training, whereas others don’t hit the mark, such as Yennefer losing her powers. Episode 1, entitled “A Grain of Truth,” has some stellar writing, but after this, the deviation from the books causes chaos.
