The Witcher: Blood Origin

harvey_f_smith shared a tip "A great limited prequel series to The Witcher about the events leading up to the Conjunction of the Spheres and it’s aftermath worth watching!!"

rob_paul_4714 shared a tip "I know nothing of the source material, if there even is any. I know The Witcher stans despise it. Other purists can’t get past that this openly steals from just about every other fantasy staple out there, LOTR, GOT, WOT, even Harry Potter and Marvel among more I’m sure. I almost didn’t watch cause I thought, damn do I really want to learn a new world? But despite all that, I had a good time watching it. It adds some cool ideas, has really cool characters and gives you hero’s to root for. Bonus, it’s only 4 eps long. It’s definitely not breaking any new ground, nor will it win any awards, but it’s really fun."

chaileymichelle shared a tip "I loved this limited series. It explains everything that led to the Witcher. I only wish it was more than 4 episodes but I’d give it a 10/10 as it holds true to the quality of the Witcher. I highly recommend for anyone who has watched or plans on watching the Witcher!"

sarahajoubert shared a tip "I’m one episode in so far and I feel like I’m watching a full season breakdown in 20 minutes. Everything is so rushed I can’t keep up. The relationships between characters are super forced that I honestly don’t care what happens to anyone. I don’t understand the hatred between clans and the importance they put on them coming together. It all means nothing to me. They really could have flushed things out more and given more development to the characters and plot so that I could be more invested. I’m going to finish this up as I’m starved for Witcher content, but so far it’s not looking good."

vito_lupedee shared a tip "I don't really see how this ties into the Witcher, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I thought it was going to show how the Witchers came into existence. They could have done that with one more episode. As it stands, it could have been its own series, without any reference to the Witcher at all. Though I did enjoy the quick watch of just 4 episodes. Good characters, special effects, and action. A solid A."

sandy_lopez shared a tip "It was a great prequel limited series! I liked how they explained what happened leading up to The Witcher. I am only basing this on watching the series. I have not read the books."

sarra_zitoun shared a tip "Beautiful cinematography and gorgeous scenes. The story is well told and the acting is so good. Short but has all it needs and tells the story perfectly. We need more presequels like this one."

lekita_t shared a tip "I really enjoyed this prequel. It was a quick watch with 4 episodes and entertaining. It also connected some things that I didn't know about. I'm ready for season 3 of the Witcher now."

Samovila138 shared a tip "Far, far too short. Michelle Yeoh’s role was too limited. This should have tied into to the larger story more intimately instead of being a brief novelty spinoff"

maya_gatewood shared a tip "The trailer looked promising, but after 1 episode I struggled to continue. I’m surprised at the poor quality of this show and baffled by others’ comments on how great the cinematography is!!!! It seems like they had low-to-no budget. It’s clear they didn’t have the same ppl working this as The Witcher, and I’m shocked Michelle Yeoh is a part of this!"

maddieF shared a tip "Really fun with fleshed out characters! World-building is amazing! I hope more anthology series of the Witcher verse gets more screen time. Really great for people who love fantasy teams up filled with badasses."

marlon_hoagland shared a tip "This show departs heavily from the lore, it's full of woke garbage just to be there and adds nothing to the story. They did this because Netflix knew that they couldn't continue the current story without Henry Cavill who they got rid of because he told the director that he didn't want to depart from the lore. Skip this, it's a waste of time."
