Season started with a lot of promise and then shit on it all towards the end. Don't bother.

it looked like after 2 seasons of not having anthony hopkins carry this series, it found its footing... and then shit
actually if they took out white and black dolores and kept mib as a popsicle it'd be good

Life After People showed one fatal flaw in the Hoover Dam: an invasive species of mollusk lives in Lake Mead and constantly threatens to clog in the intakes for water to drink the turbines. Unless it is regularly cleaned, it can eventually cut off water flow to the turbines and redirect water to the overflow channels instead
The dam could in theory stop producing power in less than a decade, unless they exterminated all life in the lake

S4 wasn't... that bad? Some stuff still didn't make sense and the ending felt stale but IMO it was so much better than the infamous s3 it almost looked good. To me it really looked like most of the actors got better directed, there's of course some bad acting but a lot of them improved, and Tessa Thompson seem to have finally learned how to act (which was surely a long journey for her).
Also, it also seems than for this season the again infamous Nolan-Joy showunner couple wasn't really involved, being too busy with their current projects (Disney's The Son, Gibson's The Peripheral, Fallout TV show) which is probably why the writing wasn't below Mariana Trench.

season 1 - great TV
season 2 - shit
season 3 - amazing, even shittier than season 2 now with Jesse Pinkman
season 4 - first few episodes were "ok" and it was starting to build up to something interesting and the writers completely could not seal the deal, ending sucked
the last few moments of the show act as a show finale though, essentially everything viewers saw was a simulation as Dolores (i think, i forget who honestly) is running simulations to try and find a reality where humans and hosts can co-exist peacefully. aka nothing you watched mattered.

Sucks they don't get to wrap it up. Should at least let them do one 90 minute finale to tie up everything.
For me, it's:
Season 1 - Brilliant
Season 2 - Ok, but let's see where it goes
Season 3 - Wtf happened to WW?
Season 4 - Course correction, but too little too late

Surprised there was even going to be a S5. I was totally convinced S4 was wrapped up.
Also I didn't mind s4 but the last (2?) episodes were quite crap

‘Westworld’ Core Cast Will Still Be Paid For Season 5 After Cancellation
EXCLUSIVE: The door to Westworld was slammed shut today as HBO confirmed that the dystopian sci-fi series will not get a fifth season. It was bad news for anyone associated with the show, led by creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, who had been hoping and advocating for another chapter, but for...

They should have never left the park. There could have been ten seasons of shows never leaving. It’s a shame considering how good season one was. I did not watch S4 nor will I ever, 3 was bad enough.
