I think the series has been degrading downward from season 1 to the current season.
As much as the writing room wants to hammer out a better and better story every new season, they’ll never top season one.
With season 3 I feel the story is convoluted. I was patient, but lost for some of the scenes with a deep storyline that’s impossible to remember (and I pride myself on shows that make you think/remember obscure details).
Overall, I’m losing interest in Delores and the rest of the characters. A lot of the actions scenes were boring, though it was cool when Delores got her arm shot off by the transport.
Maybe it would have been better if they stayed in the original western themed park, but I guess the story had to get bigger. Maybe they should have taken a page from the video game, Assassins’s Creed and spent a season in Viking Land or French Revolution Park. Who knows.
ultimately, I think the show has already let us in on the big reveal...We’re all part of a giant meta-layered simulation. Nothing is real.
I’ll watch season 4, but WestWorld is giving me the same vibe as The Walking Dead, where you watch because you’ve invested so much time into the show and who knows, maybe they’ll do something surprising and pull it out of the proverbial fire, but I’m not counting on that happening.
