The Witcher Twitter review
Started and finished watching #thewitcher yesterday, 8/10! I loved it all, the fight scenes, the character development and how the story was cleverly weaved together, hoping its going to be the new #gameofthrones (but with a better ending 😇) #thewitcherreview #TheWitcherNetflix

#TheWitcher is a good dose of fantasy after #GameofThrones. Spectacular action sequences, lots of gore, and interesting characters. #TheWitcherReview #GeraltOfRivia

The writing made me feel like I was having pointless side quest dialogue with an NPC. If there's one thing Henry Cavill is good at, it's not having a personality. This is no successor to GoT. #thewitcherreview

I’m completely hooked on #TheWitcher. I never thought it would happen that Cavill could actually win me over. Tho low-key the Bard is the best character.

Crying because I just finished season 1 of #TheWitcher and I need more! #HenryCavill is so good as #GeraltofRivia but #AnyaChalotra as #Yennefer is the absolute best! pic.twitter.com/PzOGHrtS4R

Definitely worth the watch. I'll need to rewatch just incase I missed something. So good! Cast, plot, special effects on point. Looking forward to Season 2!!!#TheWitcher #TheWitcherNetflix https://t.co/ZAVMPyUP3T

I both really enjoyed & was also second hand embarrassed by The Witcher. Some things are so good, & some other things are just so bad. I honestly think this show would be awful for people w/no knowledge of any outside material. I had a hard time keeping up w/time. #TheWitcher

The Witcher
The show follows the story of Geralt of Rivia, a solitary monster hunter, who struggles to find his place in a world where people often prove more wicked than monsters and beasts. But when destiny throws him toward a powerful sorceress, and a young princess with a special gift, the three must learn to navigate independently the increasingly unstable Continent. Henry Cavill plays Geralt of Rivia, while Anya Chalotra and Freya Allan are seen as Yennefer of Vengerberg and Princess Cirilla/Ciri, respectively.
