I like the Critical Drinker


He is a professional writer and provides a thoughtful analysis of every show he reviews, and I agree with him most of the time, but here is where we part ways - he thinks the bard is a worthless character that detracts from the show and I think he adds comical value.

I vote the writers should keep the bard in the show.

On this one I agree with the Drinker, for me the "bard", specially in the first season, was only a nuisance, the comical value was pretty much zero ...

He's about as funny as a stubbed toe.

Not everyone liked George Carlin or Richard Pryor either and they are legends in the comedy world. He isn't a professional comic, but The Drinker does have over one million Youtube subscribers (and counting). That is rarified air for Youtube creators.

No, I agree with the Drinker. The Bard sucks. The Bard is about as funny as a stubbed toe.

reply

okay. My misunderstanding. Well, agree to disagree then. IMO, the bard was pretty much the only character that added a little levity, unless you consider Geralt's grunting funny (like my wife).

Can we vote to change the writers instead?

Dandelion is an important character
