I've read the books for these series (Witcher, Wheel of Time, ASOIAF - Game of Thrones), so there's usually higher expectations. Here's my rating so far:

 

First 4 seasons of GoT >> Witcher S1 = Seasons 5 & 6 of GoT > WoT S1 > Season 7 of GoT >> Season 8 of GoT

Just as an update, I finished seeing Witcher S2. Two comments: first, it has very low overlap (maybe 10%) with books. Second, if one sees it as its own entity (and not as adaptation), it is pretty good: solid acting and direction, excellent use of landscapes and creation of atmosphere, decent-ish plot, etc. Quite impressed with the product, even though it does deviate hugely from books.

If you guys are watching on TV (not laptops, monitors, and phones), below can improve your watching experience: 

 

  • Turn off all dynamic settings (different brands will have different moniker) including dynamic contrast and auto motion 
  • Turn off noise reduction if the TV has that option
  • Set sharpness to zero (depending on your TV, it could add artifacts) 

You could try an app like below to see if your TV settings are roughly ok THX

Quality has gone down.
Series like "3 body problem" and "The Umbrella Academy" started with a bang...but had a rather pale ending.


Yeah, I don’t recall watching anything special in the last 2-3 years. 
 

Sometime back, I watched “Murder at the End of the World” but it may have been on D+.


I was more focused on classic films from around the world in the last few years.
