It literally took me over a year to watch this season (And therefore made me fall behind on all the other shows in Arrowverse because I have to watch them in order of release date lol) it was that frustrating.
This was the worst season so far for me. That's not to say it was bad (I rated is as 'good'; 7/10). I still enjoyed many episodes but there was one thing that just made me have to keep walking away from this show throughout the year.
Nora. (My complaints are for the character not the actor playing her, she was great).
When the season first started and we are introduced to her character and all that comes along with that storyline I was so excited. But then she started acting like a 13-year-old bratty teen that got on my nerves, and she was supposed to be in her twenties. They could've either written her as a teen and her attitude would have made more sense and been more bearable, or they could have at least made her character a bit more mature.
Not only that, but this brand new character that I was growing to really dislike was taking up SO MUCH screen time throughout every single episode. So much so, that the other characters, my faves especially, lost so much potential for character arcs and growth because of her. Every episode was ruined because I was hoping this would either not have her as the main plot (which it nearly always did) or that she would finally leave the show.
She lasted the entire goddamn season! And the ending of the season which should have made me feel sad just had me sighing in relief. I just pray she doesn't come back. But if god forbid she does, hopefully she won't take up as much screen time and be a whiny brat anymore
Also Chris Klein's performance as Cicada was cringeworthy! OMG, that villain had so much potential but his overdramatic - even for 'The Flash' ;) - batman voice and facial expressions ruined it and just made me roll my eyes and sigh in disappointment and embarrassment. (Maybe that's mean, but it really annoyed me because he's not a bad actor and I feel like he could have done a much better job if he had just toned it down a little lol)
Okay my rant is done! I'm not a ranty person that needs so spread her dislike for everything but this was sooooo frustrating and I have no Idea if I'm alone in this feeling and I really needed to get that out, it has literally been building up inside me for a year!
Now to more positive thoughts of season 6. GIVE ME MORE RALPH!!! PLEASE!!!!! :)
While watching this season I felt that whole storyline with the duffelbag was dragging out too long until the reveal happened and oh boy was it worth it.
Best season in years!! I can't believe all that shit happened in just one season lol. The Walking Dead is BACK!!!
One of the most frustrating confusing messes I've ever watched. I was taken out of nearly every episode by complete confusion. I didn't like any of the Yennefer storyline and just wanted to fast forward through her scenes.
This show was both dragged out and too rushed at the same time. The ending was what I kept watching for but it left me disapointed. I don't think I've been more annoyed by a season finale in my life (well maybe GOT's last season) than this last episode.
That's not to say I disliked it completely, I liked the characters of the Witcher, Cirilla and Jaskier (but thats about it.) The fight scenes were great and the storyline of the Witcher and Cirilla kept me coming back each ep.
I'm hoping season 2 will be more satisfying.
Season 1 gets a 6/10 from me.
I rated last season a 9 out of 10... can I rate this season a 900 out of 10? HOLY SHIT that was amazing!!!!!
