It really does. The ending wraps everything up perfectly. The seasons after are basically just “and then they went to theme park B and did it again”. There’s nothing lost by only watching the original season.
I mostly disagree on the “they went to park b and did it again” bit, but only mostly. Shogunworld was just a detour and it’s unclear if any of their Hosts achieved sentience. Season 2 mostly focused on the rebellion happening in the first park. The third and fourth seasons are absolutely going to another park and doing it again, but with the twist that the new park is the real world and reversing the roles of hosts and humans, comparing the hosts’ loops to human behavior (which they undermined with Rehoboam, in my opinion).
Westworld should have just been an amazing miniseries.
Enterprise needed one more season.
Yeah!! If anyone interested just watch the first season, it doesnt need continuing it was great!

I give you props for watching it all. I stopped when the shogun stuff started happening. It is nice to know what else happened after, thanks
I loved the show and wanted to see where the story went, but I also completely agree that we didn’t need anything after the first season, really.
It’s all so perfectly self-contained. I’d love to be able to watch it again if MAX wasn’t a steaming pile of crappy content.

You’re welcome.

There’s a reason that it’s one of the few shows to be referred to as True Detective (Season One) when people talk about it
