    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Henry Cavill's training for the role consisted of extensive sword-training (besides the rigorous bodybuilding required to prepare his physique for the camera). He said, "I spent all of my free time, and when I wasn't on set, with a sword in my hand. It was getting used to the weight of the sword, using it day in and day out. I had three swords where I lived, and four at work. And it was just non-stop practice, practice, practice."
    • Goofs
      At various instances, the incorrect sword type is used by Geralt. Geralt carries two swords: the dark-hilted sword with Renfri's broach on the crossguard is made of steel while the white-hilted sword is coated in silver. It is established that only silver works against monsters, especially for ensuring a killing blow. This straight-forward rule is not followed in various episodes of the series despite being mentioned in the first episode (and in latter episodes as well).

    5/10
    Going down the GoT path
    The biggest problem of GoT towards the end was the lack of any source material and it wasn't something that had any solution so D&D can't be really blamed. However, writers of Witcher do have the finished saga in their hands and they choose to ignore it. While the first season roughly corresponded with the WItcher short stories (much appreciated, no one has ever got that right), the second season is basically going its own way and it sucks. So, 9/10 for S1, 1/10 for S2 - that's 5/10 in average but it will go down with every new season.

    FAQ22

    • How many seasons does The Witcher have?Powered by Alexa
    • Will the show feature the same kind of content(mostly nudity, profanity. Violence doesn't concern me) as 'Game of Thrones'? Or will it be more tame?
    • Why does Geralt carry only one sword on his back?
    • Will the show have an actual theme song, or just music (with no singing) ?
