Westworld never had much mojo. It's a poor mans lost, filling the void of character development, plot continuity and empathy with a big budget, special effects and "shock effect, with the non-lost trait x-rated nudity thrown in for good measure.

Word to the wise, if you want an audience to empathise with your characters don't make them stifled automated robots. As the origins human characters numbers  dwindles there's really very little to care about in the show.

I don't know how people watched a minute of Westworld and thought the interesting story was the humans' one.

Has Westworld lost it's mojo or is it just me??

Think it’s just reaching a point, it will (I hope) kick on soon
Too many timeline pieces going on at the moment but it's still a very intriguing and well acted show and i'm very interested to see how this season finishes. BTW i gave Lost a watch for about two seasons and got bored of it.

It was never any good.

Dope on Netflix is a sobering view of the drugs world.

Show is expertly put together with unbelievable access to the drugs world from the top to the bottom.

Cops really are on a hiding to nothing trying to catch these guys.

Well worth watching

Season 1 was a hard act to follow and this season is not the same without its best actor.

Is that information classed as a spoiler? I wouldn't want to upset a few cranky lads on here.

Just finished the first season of Atlanta ... very smart and funny if a bit slow moving. Second season due to start soon hopefully it takes off a bit!!

Westworld season one for the most was average at best too. When us a proper show like Better Call Saul coming back?
