Karlston Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Westworld gets renewed for a fourth season on HBO These violent delights will continue for another season Westworld has been renewed for a fourth season, HBO announced today, meaning that the sometimes infuriatingly complicated science-fiction / Western series will continue to enthrall viewers with its violent delights for another season, via Variety. The third season of the series was a reinvention of sorts, moving the action outside of the titular Westworld theme park and out into the “real” world, where the rebellious robots (namely, Evan Rachel Wood’s Delores) are working to ensure their ascension by eliminating mankind. Despite the new spin on the show, ratings for the series have plummeted compared to the previous two seasons, with viewers down 57 percent for the premiere this year compared to season 2. Still, Westworld is one of HBO’s marquee franchises, and clearly the show is popular enough to justify a fourth season. There’s no word yet on when Westworld season 4 will premiere, but if the past seasons are any guide, it’ll be at least a year before it airs.

funkyy Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I started watching this series at season 1 with high hopes. Visually it's well made and well acted, ....but where some other series can insult the viewer's intelligence, this one does the opposite and tries to be too clever for its own good. I couldn't understand the "time lines" that it used in the first season as there was no clear indicator saying when the viewed scene occurred. In season 2 they lost me completely due to 3 timelines being used. I wanted to like the story, but it jumped around too much (back and forth in time?). So although I saw the trailer for season 3, I didn't bother watching it, and obviously I won't be watching the new season 4. It's a pity because the visuals are really well done...but the plot is migraine inducing!! And a 57% drop on viewers from season 2 to 3 shows that other folk maybe felt the same as me. You shouldn't need to be an Einstein or a Stephen Hawking to enjoy a show!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
