If you've ever watched Shrek, you have the basics necessities to start enjoying the epic fantasy series, The Witcher. You've got yourself a broody, hottie protagonist who's a monster but slays monsters on the side accompanied by a jaunty, witless sidekick that's useless in combat but offers excellent comic relief. Geralt of Rivia is one of those main characters who only has about 1 sentence of dialogue per season, but is still the heart throbbing, sword swinging, epic lead man that we all need in our lives. Wait, am I still talking about Geralt, or did we just fully switch our eyes over to Henry Cavill? Hmm.
So if you're a monster-hating emo boy who can swing a big stick and knock down the bad guys, this is the kind of series that'll suit your fancy. Not only is the TV show epic, but the video game and the books (yes, the Polish 90's fantasy classics, duh) are equally as awesome. Keep scrolling for gut busting memes that'll make you claim the law of surprise for LOLs.
