In a move that almost no one saw coming, HBO has cancelled Westworld after four seasons. This news comes after series co-creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy have been vocal about wanting to wrap up the entire narrative with a fifth and final season. In a statement provided to THR, HBO writes: "Over the past four seasons, Lisa and Jonah have taken viewers on a mind-bending odyssey, raising the bar at every step. We are tremendously grateful to them, along with their immensely talented cast, producers and crew, and all of our partners at Kilter Films, Bad Robot and Warner Bros. Television. It's been a thrill to join them on this journey."


I'm about half way through season 4 but figured they would have one more season to wrap everything up. Guess not.

Liked the first season a lot. Watched Season 2 and it just so stupid. Never had any interest of watching it again.

Until I saw this thread, I assumed it was canceled years ago.

F. Really wanted them to be able to wrap it up properly. Season four was a really nice bounce back from a bad season 3. The numbers weren't there though, having a bad season and then being so long in between seasons really hurt them.

If you’re looking for a new show with Westworld vibes (same creators), check out Peripheral on Prime. Mix between Ready Player One and WW

I was shocked it got a 4th season and didn’t even realize it until I saw a thread on this board. Season 4 was awesome though. Would’ve liked one more.

First season was great. Watched the 2nd season and it didn't make much sense.

Then I gave up once it became some futuristic/AI terminator crap.

They had a good premise. It just lost itself.

So you don't have HBO Max and didnt see it as soon as you opened up the app and it was the first thing on the home screen for like 3 months? And you didn't click on the movie board while the season was airing and see the season long thread for two months I guess. Crazy.

Can't believe it lasted this long.

Bailed early...I guess I was expecting a TV version of the movie.

If you Google Westworld, it autofills with "makes no sense."

I recall really having to stay tuned in and even re watch a bit of season 2 but I don't remember it not making sense. What was it thay did not make sense to you?

This is why I usually don’t start watching shows until they’ve finished their run.

Good.

First season was great, bed was shite after that. And frick Evan, Manson is indeed an a-hole, but imagine if your worst ex got to make an HBO funded documentary about you.

Or perhaps a movie like Deadwood.
