In the wake of the finale of the abismal third season of Netflix's "The Witcher", I bring you the tale of the original, the superior "The Witcher" (2002) series.
The original "The Witcher" series (initially known as "The Hexer") was mocked for its low budget and laughable special effects. Despite that, it garnered a cult following in Poland and other Slavic countries, where it was also broadcast. While Netflix's "The Witcher" managed to create more and more bad blood with fans with every season, the underrated Polish series, after all these years, still holds its ground. Let's find out in what ways the 2002 version was superior to the 2019 one. In my opinion, of course.
