The EW review summarized: "Cavill shouldn't have to wear a wig. I didn't read any of the books or play the games. The show relies too heavily on open world video game tropes, such as destiny. I don't like nudity in my high fantasy genre TV shows unless it is Game of Thrones. I'm too lazy to look up the actor's name who plays the bard in the second episode, but he is annoying. Let's make a Harry Potter joke and try and drop another show name for no reason. I don't understand the plot so far, so instead of making an effort to understand I am going to say The Good Cop shouldn't have been canceled and then skip to episode 5 and now REALLY don't know what is happening, but there is an orgy going on and I don't know why. The show keeps mentioning Destiny but it is a video game trope and I don't care and think it is boring. Grade: F"
These people get paid to watch television and write reviews. The least they could have done is watch the entire season from start to finish before being so quick to say it is bad or really break down one episode at a time to say what is good and what isn't instead of getting all hoity-toity about some nudity. I am not saying the show is perfect, but it has some excellent moments (the butchering at Blaviken was some of the best fight choreography I have seen and Cavill really has nailed down the overall feel of Geralt to the point that even his stature screams "don't fuck with me").

Hopefully she doesn't completely ignore the critics and reviews tho. I did enjoy this season but there's ground for improvement. A LOT.
