lol first couple seasons were legit, but it became increasingly clear as it dragged on that the writers never had any coherent end to the plot in mind and were just making shit up as they went, which is exactly what Westworld feels like

I honestly think "prestige" tv should attempt to constrain itself to single-season closed arcs a la True Detective. Runs the risk of having a SPS season (TD2), but has the upside of producing something incredible (TD1), and overall is just a better approach. Make it like a 9 hour movie.

I also like Black Mirror for its single-episode approach, although that is tougher.

given the netflix model, i think single season prestige tv will probably become more common (if only because more series will be greenlit but a lower share will be renewed)

I think Westworld is coming together.

There is a definite dichotomy between Dolores (prodded by humans to become human but taking a dark, unfeeling, algorithmic turn) and Maeve (not prodded at all, but showing clear human emotions, guilt, empathy, remorse).

The coherent ending is probably going to be something where these two meet up.. Dolores wanting to wipe out the human race and robots who she doesn't feel are worthy vs. Maeve who wants some kind of integrated future.

Dolores has already indicated that some computers should not survive. Whereas Maeve said everyone should be liberated.

Exactly. It was always a stupid show. Everyone was watching for the 'reveal' which turned out to be fairly predictable and dumb. It had it's moments but it's essentially a well done, high budget Scy-Fy channel production. After a while people were watching it just for the 'oooh did you see the new one yet!?' water cooler banter.

The whole point of the show is to explore whether robots can become conscious beings despite their robot parts. Undoubtedly the show is less interesting if you reject the premise of the question and think a robot is a robot because it is made of robot parts.

im down with that 100 percent. i dont give a fuck about these robots memories and their feelings. and this third episode they were pushing this stuff hard as if its going to be the bedrock of the show. i dont really care for these robots feelings since they arent real. to me the whole fun was the mystery they kept alluding to, and the sherlock holmes aspect of the show of solving the riddles. and the violence was well done, but its becoming a soap oprea.

I've mentioned it in another thread, but the show needs to lighten up, drop it's pretension of "prestige tv" and embrace more of it's camp elements. It's never going to work as a deep think piece outside of it's 105 iq viewing audience. In that respect, I thought episode 3 was a little bit better.

i actually liked the seriousness of the show, but now that i see they are going with the robot feelings theme im not down with that. when it was ambiguous about how we should feel about the whole thing it was good, now that im supposed to take the side of the robot rebellion i kinda dont give a fuck. i was not rooting for anyone in season 1, and that was part of the fun. now we have some bitch to follow who im supposed to root for... i dont care. show jumped the shark episode three. asking me to root for a robot...get out of here!
