The Invitation

I was hoping the script writers were not going to take money to write in LGBT into their story, but money talks.

I keep wondering how much it costs to get a character to turn into a homosexual, how much money gets passed around at the top,

I even wonder if this review will get cancelled for stating the truth, 'the king has no clothes'--I am guessing they made a lot on this under the table

This season has been dragging further and further down, so they just decided to make as much as possible on a sinking ship. My guess is the offer has been on the table since season one.

Guess it time to start looking elsewhere.

This season has completely exposed the fact that the writers and showrunners have nothing but contempt for the source material, the fans, and good storytelling. This episode is the ultimate example that they've stopped trying to even act like they want to tell a good story. Instead, maybe they just want the writing credit and paycheck. Really, who can tell? Ciri's characterization completely flipped again. None of the "politics" is interesting or makes sense, it's just boring. They've decided to go for laughs in a show that has never focused on it.

Tl:dr, pretty garbage, watch something else.

The episode was decent but this season lacks in many things after Season 1 and 2. Transgenders and dudes making out should never of been added period. I hope Season 4 is better but at this point I don't have much hope with Cavill gone :(((. Over all the Season 3 isn't as bad as the majority of the reviews state it is but some new blood and energy is needed to make this series interesting again. I guess that's why Cavill left because the dialogue isn't intriguing anymore. The acting is fine with what the actors are left to work with which isn't much at times. There are some really awesome location sets and scenery but way too much obvious green screens in the whole season. Oh well watch Season 1 and 2 instead!!

Season one and season two were great, storyline and cinematography was amazing. It felt like a movie setting. Season three is a disaster, looks like Netflix ran out of money and the screenwriters and the Director didn't care about the character development and storytelling. I won't blame the acting but rather the the filming equipment and the directing as the worst I've seen for such a great two initial seasons. Henry Cavill quit this show for a reason and now I see why, seems Netflix has lost the plot and just went cheap, most scenes are clearly green screen. Season four will be even worse with Liam Hemsworth, he is a boy and not a man like Cavill, just watch and see, the chemistry with Liam and the cast will be mediocre at best.

Going deeper into the season, it is obvious that the writers had no idea what to do next and how to develop characters properly (it is a good question whether they ever planned to do so).

Not just that, but the more we plunge into the season, the worst special effects are. Looks like the budget dried out, and it could be felt on the writing, but on the effects as well.

If we start talking about the story and how bad it is, we start to ask ourselves have they read any books or stories about the saga itself? If am a bit scared to get the answer... Last thing I have to mention is the scene that changed everything. Jaskier is cemented as the ladies man, and he would never, ever had anything with another man. This is just criminal and writers should be fired.
