Tagged: Westworld Season 3
Hey from lockdown in New Zealand, I wrote in during True Detective Season 3 which made your pod at the time so happy days! For Westworld I was planning on waiting until the end of the season to write in, (as a kind of show/podcast review) but the “Unknown Caller”...
Hi Shat, Throughout this season, we’ve watched Westworld transform from an intellectual mind-bending show packed full of philosophy and existential concepts to a full-on sci-fi tech fest.
