Is Westworld season 2 worse than the Season 1?

This is hard to say. And it depends on how much that you are looking forward to the westworld season 2. To me, it is not worse.

It is telling a different story, so our expectations have changed. We no longer have Anthony Hopkins, so there is a void. Certain excellent cast members, such as Thandie Newton, Jeffrey Wright and Gustaf Skarsgard haven’t been given enough screen time to fill that emptiness. Until episode 4, “The Riddle of the Sphinx” we have largely been dealing with Dolores and Teddy. Not all viewers are comfortable with her change into Wyatt as it seems abrupt, even though it fits the scope of her character. And I do love the custom made cosplay costumes very very much. 

Certain mysteries are now solved. We have a better understanding of Robert Ford, who was far more complex than some evil genius villian. He saw the threat of his world slipping away and he took action largely through Dolores. As viewers, we still want him directing the narrative, but other than some cryptic statements from child hosts, Ford is gone. The Man in Black has taken center stage as the game director, except that he isn’t doing that at all—he wants to think he is in charge of Westworld, but we are probably witnessing his last stand. Since we know who the MIB is, we have to care more about his motives. Again, this is why episode 4 is so critical as we see he isn’t some sociopath, but perhaps a bit like Ford, with a larger scheme in mind and a few regrets.

As viewers, we have to adapt to the new Westworld. The hosts are changing, but we have only seen this with Maeve and Dolores. The time shifts make it seem as though the story is skipping key information so everything feels incomplete. But that isn’t much different than Season 1: we had time shifts galore, but it moved like one continuous narrative, so we didn’t realize that the show was fooling us. Now we know. We are wary, and we want to see answers, but the show is drawing out the next mystery, centered around the Delos family and their master data plan.

I still feel very invested in the story. I want to see Bernard as the self aware host, which I got tonight in “The Riddle of the Sphinx”. I wanted to know more about James Delos, and tonight’s episode did that for me. I am not getting enough information yet about Delos’ larger plan, but i bet we won’t know until far later in the season. We are missing transitions that I know the show will explain, but the non-linear storytelling requires patience. For example, we now know what happened to Elsie, but we still aren’t sure about Stubbs. Gustaf Skarsgard has been underutilized in the early episodes, which is a shame. Then we find ourselves switching from Bernard’s many timelines to the story of William/MIB to the host rebellion under Dolores as Wyatt, then we get bits of Maeve and Charlotte’s larger plan. We still have questions about Lawrence, the other parks (which this season is answering), and the biogenetic goals of the park. 

We have a lot of ground to cover.

I think it was a mistake to have viewers wait so long between seasons. 2 years is a long time for a good show with one season under its belt. Game of Thrones can wait 2 years or 3 years, and fans will show up in droves. As good as it is, Westworld hasn’t earned GOT status for HBO fans. The show is taking its time in revealing the story, but I expect Season 2 to be interesting and satisfying. my chemical romance costume

So let's see what would be the ends from the westworld season 10 episode. Ah, I really could not wait.
