The Witcher: Bottled Appetites (2019)
Season 1, Episode 5
7/10
I had a night like this once
25 December 2021
I'll spare you the full details, but it was similar insofar as I was looking after a friend who was incapacitated somehow, and somehow it led to me getting with a "very sexy, but insane" witch, and if you want to know anymore than that, you'll have to track me down and ask me yourself.

Anyway, disregarding my personal nightly affairs with witches, this episode is kind of a trade-off with the previous one. While there's not really any pointless stuff in this one, I also don't think it's as well directed as the last episode.

But in addition to there not being any pointless stuff in this episode, there's also nothing I didn't at least enjoy. Ciri's parts are kept to a minimum and are getting a little more interesting to me, and Geralt and Yennefer's plotlines converge for the first time here, and what ends up happening is pretty cool.

I guess I did find Jaskier a little annoying this time, and there was a part of a particular scene that honestly made me burst out laughing when it wasn't supposed to because the dialogue was really awkward, but it's still far better than the start of this series would have ever suggested.
