079: What Went Wrong With Westworld (And Why Was It Good in the First Place)?

February 20, 2023 • Dillon & Daniel

In this episode Dillon and Daniel talk about everyone's favorite robot show, Westworld, and it's many, many, MANY themes and characters. What made this show's first season so great? When and why did it fall off? Was there a way to salvage all these themes (like capitalism, free will, and consciousnes) and characters (except for Teddy becaus they legit forgot him but it's ok he's not important) into a more coherent and better story? What do Dillon and Daniel think would have happened in season 5/might happen in a movie or something if that's what they decide to do? Will Daniel run out of breath at some point because he sucks at volume control? The answer to ALL of these can be found within this episode; enjoy.
