I watched the first episode and was frankly disappointed, I'm not giving up but I do hope it gets better. The youtube video put up by Marcus looks good so fingers crossed.

I hear ya. I am NOT a fan of shows or movies trying to be obnoxiously complex with story lines. I don't mind a twist or two. But I don't want to rack my brains or have to search WTF was happening.

I absolutely am loving it. I think the multiple timelines opens the door to tons of speculation/theories/what ifs. So much to think about.

Big fan of the first season, but was really trying to hang on at the start of this season. Luckily the last two episodes shown as of this week are keeping my interest to watch more.

I will admit... The jumping all over timelines and plot twists are somewhat taking away from the general premise. I don't mind some plot twists in a show/movie, but when it becomes overly complicated just because, is a turn off.

OK, so I stuck it out and it's definitely getting better although it's a bit tough to follow at times and Im not even drinking while I watch it. Marcus, clearly you like Evan Rachel Wood but I'm more down with....Talulah Riley

The need to axe Mave's storyline completely. If you remember in the first season each host is given a cornerstone memory... in this case Mave's daughter and their time on the farm. I think it's a filler sub plot that is finally coming together after so many episodes. Even Sizemore acknowledged that and I think he's just riding it out to save his own ass. He's the one that wrote all the narratives and know exactly how it all played out now finally he's given his chance to escape.

I'm hoping that there is some huge merging point of Mave and the rest of the hosts because so far her plot is a complete waste of time other than showing us Samurai World. But again Sizemore wrote the narratives for all of them so Mave seeing Akane going through the same thing is kind of a moot point, IMO, even though the show writers want to probably show that other hosts are going through the same thing. But Sizemore copied and pasted the narratives and Akane is just simply the Japanese version of Mave just without the "upgrades" and that's why she chose to stay in the park. Sizemore knows what is going on the entire time.

We'll see how things play out with the Ghost Nation and Mave this weekend but obviously there's a conflict now as Mave's daughter has a new mother and they are content with living in the park. Should be interesting to see if Mave's sentience causes her to realize that she is being selfish to strip away a child from her mother and that Sizemore will have known the the whole time the child has a new mother in play. This could be the possible turning point but I'm not holding my breath and usually use her story to get up and piss.


Now crazy Teddy is by far the best Teddy The tech upped his cruelty and awareness to 100%. I think he's going to come unhinged and Delores has created a monster that she will no longer be able to control. The way she looked at him after he shot that Delos employee in the head was the look of "OH FUCK....what have I done". Could also be why we saw him floating dead in the lake in the second episode... Delores just couldnt handle him. Since they are headed back into the Mesa it should be interesting how crazy Teddy handles all of the Delos staff inside.
