Part 9/10:
The Witcher initially soared in popularity when it debuted, with many fans hopeful that it would become a flagship fantasy series. However, subsequent seasons failed to meet expectations. Season 1 was praised for its faithful adaptation and compelling storytelling, but by Season 2, fans noticed a departure from source material that only worsened in Season 3.
Henry Cavill's outspoken stance about staying true to the "books and games" further complicated matters. Fans appreciated his efforts, but the creative direction headed elsewhere, leading to disillusionment and a decline in viewership.
