The show runners do a podcast for each episode too which is often pretty great.

So, this looks like it might be interesting.

Probably not enough to get an HBO subscription, though.

Oh shit, that might actually be the push I need to upgrade my Crave subscription. I've been toying with the idea for awhilejrfox92 wrote:So, this looks like it might be interesting.

Even if starts well, I’m losing confidence in HBO sticking the landing. See GOT, Westworld. It ends up like a prestige TV version of Lost.

See Westworld is one of the things I really want to watch on HBO, but literally everyone I've talked to has told me to only watch the first seasonGone Fission wrote:Even if starts well, I’m losing confidence in HBO sticking the landing.

Stopped watching the second season, and was liking the show as S1 closed. May revisit and enjoy more on binge, but it’s like they ran out of ideas and just decided to milk it out with a bunch of conflict/violence that wasn’t going anywhere so seemed meaningless.

I'm returning for Westworld Seas3, even though the second season began really pulling the rug out from under me. Many times, it seemed.
HBO has a better record of wins than losses for original series though, so I dunno how you guys are arriving at "always fucks it up" or whatever.

i've only watched Westy Season 1 and GoT from HBO series stuff. i have noooooo opinion on how they roll long term.
the GoT going shitty is more RR Martin's dick hole fault for not writing the freaking books out. there's been decline after decline as they passed the written chunks.

I dislike how Arya is this super powered anime ninja now.
And every episode in this final season is "tune in to see which minor character dies because we have no guts anymore".

I'm about halfway through season two of Westworld. It definitely isn't grabbing me the same as the first season, but I still think it's good. I'm just watching an episode every couple of days plinking my way through. The whole thing that I liked about season one was that it is a really interesting take on personal identity and philosophy of mind stuff. I think it is the most interesting depiction I have ever seen of an expansion of the Turing test/the Chinese room. That intellectual exploration is all still present in the second season, even if the actual episodes don't have me on the edge of my seat as much.

I completely agree with all of this frustration. Throughout the whole thing, there have been lots of moments where I've assumed they were making some of the characters really stupid on purpose.behndy wrote:it's just shit writing all around.
