We might finally find out how Logan made it back to civilization.

I'm sorry, but this episode just seems like 90 percent filler and not really relevant to the main story in hardly any way.

This shown is becoming increasingly difficult to slog through each week. Are we sure Damon Lindelof isn't secretly writing this show?

Weird interpretation to have 11 hours before the show airs

Are we sure Ford isn’t writing the show? Idk what to believe anymore. Am I a host?

Nah, I agree with you. I’ll watch but I’m not hanging on the edge of my seat every week. GOT may have ruined me.

I find this show far more intriguing than GOT and thought last weeks episode was very revealing. One of the few shows i enjoy re watching episodes.

I’m at the point where I’m just pretending season 2 doesn’t exist because season 1 was so fantastic.

This season didn’t need to get made.

I've enjoyed it so far. Season one had weak episodes too. I'm sure the last couple of eps will be intense.

If you go back to last year, the first half of the season was slow. This year, we had two really killer episodes. Last week's and Riddle of the Sphinx. It wasn't until the last few episodes of season 1 that we say Elsie kidnapped, Bernard revealed as a host, Theresa killed, and the William old and young storylines coming together. Dolores didn't really come into her own until the last two episodes. Pariah wasn't until the second half of the season as well.

I'm wondering if this will be the same thing because last week took things up a notch.

I think there may be some ptsd from when they took off to Asia world for no reason except to show “hey look we can do cool things in a different part of the world too”.

FWIW I don’t think that will happen with this episode

It would kind of suck if they talked about having 6 parks and we never got to actually experience any other parks besides West world. I wanna see them all

The Ghost Nation tracks all the way back to the first season. They keep showing up and give off a sinister vibe, but past their reputation, we haven't really seen them to be malevolent and they may actually be a bit benevolent. They'll capture, but we don't know to what end. They've been in the park from near the beginning because we see them with young William, Delores, and Lawrence when he's El Lazo. They have unexplained parts in both seasons of the show, and exist in the story we've been told for over 30 years and we know absolutely dick about them. They're finally about to explain what the frick they are and the episode might suck because it sucks, but it won't suck because they're just suddenly adding some filler to the world.

Also, the woman in that second picture is striking.

Oh, yeah, it's had its slow points. I can only hope that what seems like the useless turn through Samurai World pays off in the long run. Maybe Japanese Maeve decides that she doesn't need to stay anymore and she and Japanese Hector show up to be instrumental down the line. I really hope all that time there wasn't for naught.

TBH this board is doing more and more bitching just for the sake of bitching. It’s not the Rant yet, but damn.

You really think it’s just this board? Going onto a larger board like the show’s sub reddit. Most people there have also done plenty of complaining about storylines like Maeve’s and Delores’s. The show’s ratings have also dipped compared to last season.

Look at the online comments for each professional review of an episode. Much fewer than first season.

I still think the long layoff hurt as well.

I wasn’t just referring to threads about this show.

30 minutes in and nothing to advance the plot at all has happened. This is starting to feel like the empty TWD episodes to me.
