Series 3 of The Witcher is not as bad as the previous season. Low bar there, of course, because season 2 was fucking terrible. There are good bits but the storytelling is still mostly shabby, while not as all over the place as 2.
Bit of a shame. The books are not bad for what they are, while CDPR, by the time of Witcher 3, were doing some of the best storytelling in current video games. Meanwhile, the TV show aspires to be GoT but often sinks to a bad Xena clone. All that said, the most recent episode (ep 5) might be the best since the beginning - which just leaves me thinking "Why churn out 4 episodes of 'meh to OK' - and the stream of shit that was season 2 - if you can do this?".
