HBO Cancels ‘Westworld’ in Shock Decision

Quote:
HBO has switched off Westworld.

The network has decided to cancel the sci-fi drama after its recent fourth season.

It’s an unexpected fate for a series that was once considered one of HBO’s biggest tentpoles — an acclaimed mystery-box drama that racked up 54 Emmy nominations (including a supporting actress win for Thandiwe Newton).

Last month, co-creator Jonathan Nolan said in an interview that he hoped HBO would give the series a fifth season to wrap up the show’s ambitious story, which has chronicled a robot uprising that changed the fate of humanity. “We always planned for a fifth and final season,” Nolan said. “We are still in conversations with the network. We very much hope to make them.” Co-creator Lisa Joy likewise said the series has always been working toward a specific ending: “Jonah and I have always had an ending in mind that we hope to reach. We have not quite reached it yet.”

I could see the ratings sliding further and further with each season so this isn't too surprising, but I had hoped they would give it that final season (even if it was shorter than usual).

Season 4 was a modest improvement over the deeply flawed third season, but still nowhere near the brilliance of season 1.

I need to finish off Season 4, it's hard going and still a mess for me, lacking well thought through ideas or maybe it's the presentation of those ideas, I don't really know.

Season 1 was definitely brilliant, but season 2 I found a crazy bundle of confusion. I actually enjoyed season 3 a lot more, but it's a very rare show that peaks in it's first season but is still worth watching.
