Although I can not say it is bad; it is definitely not quite so good.
{sic: as season no.1 was}

Is it missing A.Hop' that dang bad? Could be...
As this season seems meandering. Itinerant as the
true strategic plot goes. Or just downright, confused.

Like the Benard Bot' himself.
And what/who is he?
Still a Ford drone?
Or not?

The William guy finding his daughter was okay.
She does have some blueblood game.

Ditto the "shot" of nitroglycerine.

Though the Injuns taking her captive seemed
more in tune with this messed up show.
That did not, materialize, per se.
That was a courage test?
LOL...

Then the blonde wannabe Earp girl was basically
absent from ep.no.4. And where exactly is this thing heading???

As just an old-school Crackerjack box little silver compass
would seem most strategically useful here to me.

Ed Harris is b-side/supporting epic.
Though he's not quite a true leading man.
Ditto the guy who plays Bernard. And pretty much the rest.

As WestWorld needs a real star to emerge.
Stars, shine. Or say: "nighty nite".

you=???
