Henry Cavil will always be the best actor for this show

[@deepzone31]

And writer

[@PrimeRick470]

And now he’s leaving it

[@sernoddicusthegallant6986]

Cavil is great but I feel hes been stealing the spotlight from Jasiker and Tissaia's characters who were also brilliantly acted.

[@WeAreLegion-]

Lol

[@Silver__Knight]

As he's leaving my interest in the show leaves too. Would have wanted to see season 4 but too much abomination (Homosexuality) for me to continue. Was rooting for rakovid to die though, hope they kill him off in season 4 even though I'm not watching

[@dontwannanewname]

I'm loving the snark you laced through this, especially the desert episode, like what was the point of doing that for an hour 😂 great recap as always

[@carlostdied1184]

I thought he had Bagman in mind when talking about that lol

[@jasperl.1721]

That episode is actually my favourite one in Season 3 cuz it is being the most faithful part of adaptation to the books. Other epiosdes are full of plot holes and illogical twists if you look closely.

[@sernoddicusthegallant6986]

The saddest part is that it was just as bad in the book. Like the last two seasons theyve been deviating from the source material when they feel like it, but the one time they decide to do an episode pretty much entirely faithfully its arguably the worst chapter in the book series.

[@dontwannanewname]

@@sernoddicusthegallant6986 somehow that is even more sad

[@loyael]

I hate deserts, wether in video games, books or movies. This was hard to watch lol but at least it's only 1 episode And the end scene was bomb

[@Incog_Nico]

“…If you like hour long episodes of wandering the desert, you’re in luck.” 😂🤣 I’ve watched every episode but still need to come here for the recaps. Outstanding!

[@kidkatanatv]

I feel bad the Cavill enjoyed this character but left because Netflix was basically wilding

[@Willy_Jean]

The writers of this show is just trash

[@kryhigh9302]

Just Lauren Schmidt-Hissrich from what I understand :/

[@djelgan680]

You do the best season and movie recaps. Skipping the fluff with humor and sticking to the main highlights and details of the story including all of the names of the characters.

[@shittyname2657]

Sad that this is gonna be Cavils last season, thanks for the recap.

[@brycedortch2299]

“He saves the day with power of racism” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@onibanks8120]

Thank you for your service!! I loved the first 2 seasons but could barely make it through episode 1 of this current season. So much fluff! So many new new and unnecessary characters. Your recap was awesome ❤

[@Luciphell]

Another 8 hours I truly wished I had saved and just waited for your recap. This season was a bigger letdown than two.

[@JJJBunney001]

There is no way you can think this is worse than season 2

[@Akutosai547]

5:20 the desert episode in avatar is pretty good so maybe

[@PeteMonaghan]

This was HILARIOUS! Best recaps on KZbin.

[@Refilon]

Thanks for all your amazing recaps! One of my favourite channels for sure. Also I am frustrated as fuck by this season. Quick edit, you kind of forgot that Yennefer was also looking for Siri without succes, and that she healed Geralt in scenes that all felt rushed and out of place.

[@girldaddividendinvestor]

Still haven't seen a single episode, and your recaps keep me from not only NOT being absolutely lost, can make small talk when my friends start talking about it. 😂😂😂 Thank you for your service sir.

[@sarangasarma2486]

What if they start asking you questions...😃

[@kckillakrack9714]

Season 1 is the only one worth watching. They ruined this show then blame fans why anyone would watch it is mind boggling

[@alandavies445]

True

[@TheEternalSteelAngel]

Best thing to open up on my work break Was waiting for this to drop! Welcome Back MANO! I toss a coin to you, sir.

[@nekomiaou]

So they took part of book 3 and 4 and made a season with it. It look closer to the source material than season 2 was, but I guess that for many people, finding that Ciri is the true hero of the story is hard (or maybe non possible). If you think Ciri centered episodes where too much, it's only get worse after (unless the show deviate again from the book, but I will not see it, I don't want to see anymore Netflix's Witcher after season 2).

[@kckillakrack9714]

Pretty sure you reading comprehension isn't very good based of this statement. This show hasn't been good or close to anything witcher since season 1

[@tahuaroa]

Thank you, Man of Recaps! You can make even REAL GARBAGE look entertaining for a short while!

[@liamc7097]

I enjoyed that and it helped me fill in the gaps from when i zoned out several times while watching S3. It must take ages to put these together so here's a comment and a thumbs up for the algo

[@greedyyawgoo5635]

We all thought Netflix would give Geralt (Henry) one hell of a fight that would ruin his face and would eventually heal because of magick but Geralt's face is already changed to Liam. But No, it's a Game of Thrones character actor exchange, no explanation for why it changes, just accept the changes and move on.

[@Blue_Grass_Girl]

Thank you so much! I'ma just go read the books again.

[@Ronfost89]

If the rumor is true then this will in fact just be the last time we see Geralt at all.

[@Ulrican414]

Henry is leaving and so am I. He was the only reason I was watching this mid show anyways, and he was barely in it. So im out.

[@calewitmer7145]

Best recaps on KZbin by far. You should look into doing Ted lasso s3, only murders in the building s1-2(season 3 is releasing soon) and the blacklist s1-10!!

[@ThaneOfFife22]

Oh god, his recap of the last few episodes of Blacklist would be legendary. What an incredibly awful ending, I just couldn't believe the writers gave up like that.

[@calewitmer7145]

@@ThaneOfFife22 ik pretty much no explanation of who reddington was and how he died was so boring. Sucks the season ended so badly since that episode where reddington makes the replica of the building was one of my favorites from the whole show

[@gb_gregg2794]

Best recap channel ever. Helps me remember half the stuff u forgot 🤣even shows I never watched

[@charmedkitten]

Not the power racism, lawd 🤣🤣

[@goldesd90]

They should have Gerald be wounded also in the face, so in the next season they could make him a new face with some magic. Hopefully the new actor will make his job good.

[@pdzombie1906]

This time I really needed the recap because after the showrunner betrayed the source material and Henry Cavill, I refused to watch it again. Thanx for saving my time, Man of Recaps!!!

thanks ma, your recaps make my day :)

love your videos. ur always making fantastic content. have u watched mayans mc or sons of anarchy ? if so could u please do a video on these shows ? kindest regards from a huge fan.

Are you planing on doing a recap of silo? i rather wait watching a recap and watch yours because you do them 1000% better then anyone on youtube :P

[@LubulaAfritech]

Great work

[@avanderwolf49]

I never played the games but there is a reason they did so good. I have never understood why someone would make a show based on a series they don't like or care to understand (Game of Thrones and The Witcher rip). I honestly did not think the series was that bad but I know it could have been so much better. Justice for the cast.

[@aishatjohnson2076]

Been waiting for this recap for weeks😊

[@rwallaceva]

Glad to see the Tux back!

[@saiyanx2321]

Sad to see Henry Cavill go but I look forward to seeing him transitioning into the emperor of mankind...

BRO Ciri getting Possesed is becoming like a main thing for each season 😭 like first the fire witch now falka? Like shouldnt she become immune or sum? Like its just freaking crazy

[@panda_eyes_9115]

I am impressed on how far the show is able to fuck up the surce material so much that whole caracter arcs are different and alot of caracters are just different from the books and the original visions of the author.

[@TheBandessz]

Thanks

[@elck3]

Cavill got like 10% of the screen time in this season. No wonder he left. The showrunner and her writing “team”: get rekt.

[@WANDERINGMAN82]

This is already the end🫠, no planning on watching the Liam version 😁

[@wallflowerlone9807]

Thanks for the recap. I wanted to know the story but knowing Henry been forced out of the show he was so passionate about made me not want to watch

[@noob4head]

This series will never be the same without Henry Cavil. I already wasn't the biggest fan of season 3 but I'm pretty fearful for season 4. Hopefully the story will be able to carry the series further but I'm not all to sure about that.

I tried making it through this season, but I couldn’t do it knowing that Cavill was leaving. Thanks for taking that bullet for me buddy

Amazing video and will watch after school. I live in Australia so yea. Btw FIRST

[@bishbosh4815]

Can any show not go bad?

[@caret_shell]

Shows should be shorter and more intentional. Good stories have a beginning, middle and end, not a beginning middle, middle, middle, middle, middle, middle, middle, middle, middle, middle, and end. That being said, artistic mismanagement certainly seems to have been the bigger problem here. Cavill was a squandered gift.

[@noone-ld7pt]

​@@caret_shell I absolutely agree with artistic mismanagement being the biggest problem here and that the waste of Cavil is an absolute tragedy! But I disagree with your conclusion about the length of shows in general. When adapting high fantasy epics like the witcher it is absolutely paramount to make the world feel as real as possible and to really flesh out the important characters. Take GoT for example, the last seasons are both the shortest and by far the worst rated. Of course that was also due to the sudden lack of source material and the hubris of the show runners. But even with how long and often lacking of spectacular action the early seasons were they are still some of the highest rated seasons and episodes of any show ever! The Witcher Universe has an abundance of adaptable material, and incredible amount of nuanced characters. The show instead decided to make up their own stories and display the characters as caricatures of the originals at best, and rewrite them completely from their core at worst. I think lack of respect for the source material is by far the biggest problem in Hollywood adaptations right now, and personally I'd love to see even longer seasons for shows like The Witcher, WoT and Lotr as long as they stay true to the world and characters and stop making up these pathetic superficial hollywood parodies of fantastic literature. Sorry that became a bit of a rant, I just really don't want Hollywood to take away the wrong lesson from a show getting bad reviews... again...

[@lfcippe4919]

Great recap as always! Good grief I had no idea the S3 was even on yet and there's no reason to watch iy after this. I highly recommend people to read or listen the Witcher books. I feel like an old person by saying this but the books are so much better than the show.

[@ehsannazari262]

Bro power of racism got me dead lol

[@melissadaisy]

Emhyr realized it wasn't Ciri? I thought he didn't know 'cause he hasn't seen her in so long that he wouldn't even recognize her face. Why else show her off to everyone when it's the wrong girl?

[@Eddytorial]

I love the humor 😅

[@Flaccid_Bananas]

Can I request an Ahsoka recap leading up to the series here? 😂

[@caret_shell]

Henry Cavill was too good for this lot. Perhaps the Warhammer folks will treat him better!

[@turayisshaga5327]

Do the power universe

[@sofiahilali4417]

I really thought they would mess his face up with his fight with vilgefortz. Then let him recover and explain his face changing (hemsworth replacing cavill in season 3) with some sort of magic or something because he couldn’t get his face to heal. Okay it’s a stretch but it would have made more sense
