Before I complain I want to say I mostly liked this episode, I think the shortcomings of the overall season made this episode less impactful than it would have been in other seasons. I liked the Caleb backstory, I kind of feel like it should have happened earlier because not much was a surprise to us once we had learned about the reeducation centers.  I also liked the cool battles; however, I think there was something missing from this season that was there in other season to make the climatic confrontations really feel like a payoff.  Before the journey into night or the mesa HQ massacre train explosion there was an entire season of lead up of story from beginning, to middle to end that led to season ender. <\/p>\n<p>In this season it feels like there wasn&#8217;t enough time to tell the main story, even though they had some really, really good character episodes for 2 for Caleb, 2 for William and 2 for Charlores and 1 for Serac.   Usually for a season this story is involved with those episodes and the journey develops as the season goes on.  Here its like we missed most of the journey and weren&#8217;t involved except for a couple places so the penultimate episode just doesn&#8217;t hit us as strongly as season 1 or 2.   That and some main character that really should have been more active in the season don&#8217;t really do much Bernard, Stubs and Meave.  I love them, but honestly they could have used a body double for Bernard and wouldn&#8217;t have made much difference to the character. <\/p>\n<p>For episode I give it a 6 2\/3 stars out of 10<\/p>\n<p>For season barring great ending. 7 our of 10, usually I give the season 10 out of 10. <\/p>\n<p>Past excellent season have spoiled for pretty good tv.<\/p>\n<p>Scott P <p><strong>Subscribe Now<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Android:\u00a0<a title=\"Android\" href=\"https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-android<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Apple\/iTunes:\u00a0<\/em><a title=\"iTunes\" href=\"https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-itunes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>https:\/\/shatpod.com\/tv\/westworld-itunes<\/em><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong><u>Help Support the Podcast<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><em>Contact Us: <a href=\"\/contact\/\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/contact<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Commission Movie: <a href=\"\/support\/\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/support<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Support with Paypal: <a href=\"\/paypal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/paypal<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Support With Venmo: <a href=\"\/venmo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/venmo<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Shop Merchandise: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/shop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.shatpod.com\/shop<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Shop Amazon With Our Affiliate Link &#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/?tag=shatmovies-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/?tag=shatmovies-20<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Theme Song &#8211;\u00a0<a title=\"The Ecstasy Of Gold\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/album\/hip-hop-feat.-western-fistful\/id383104544\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">&#8220;The Ecstasy Of Gold&#8221; (Hip Hop Instrumental Version)<\/a> \u00a0by\u00a0<a title=\"Dj 2 Bad\" href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/artist\/dj-2-bad\/id380839995\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dj 2 Bad<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<li><em>Outro Music &#8211; By <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/simonsteric\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Simon Eric Haywood<\/a><\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I am a little earlier this time for the penultimate episode of Westworld season7.
