Westworld
Westworld is a classic example of a big budget prestige drama that has gone off the rails. I was a big fan of the first season - in fact I think I blogged about each episode, and bought the blu-ray. But then the 2nd season underwhelmed and the third season was just a mess. It shouldn't have been that way - a great premise, great actors, so many twists, so much potential. But it lost the plot - it went too overboard with the multiple timelines and who is really human and who isn't, and the "bigger picture". I lost interest and lost caring. I'm disappointed with Westworld - but a different kind of disappointment than say the last season of Games of Thrones. I don't feel anger, just indifference. Which is why when the first episode of the 4th season aired this weekend, I didn't even bother watching. I'm through with this show. I don't remember anything about the 3rd season, and I'm not inclined to try to pick up the convoluted plot - if that's even possible - for this 4th season. Good luck if you're still watching it. You're probably the same kind of person that is still inexplicably watching The Walking Dead.
