Wow, the scene where Caleb looks at Delores while she's using the "machine gun" and they played the theme from "Love Story" made me smile.

Surely the Serac brothers did not need Daddy dempseys money. They could have just turned whatever they had themselves into whatever money they needed with their computer. Might have took a bit longer but they would have retained their independence.

Wonderful review as always! I love seeing your passionate takes on the show. Even tho I do not feel this way, I still love Westworld and what it's doing, and you obviously do too, I wanted to get your take on some people reacting that Westworld has lost something in this season. I've seen a lot of people say that. I know, not everything is meant for everyone and some people just don't get that this show was never really about the Westworld theme park (despite its the name of the show) but there are also some people saying that the writing isn't as good. I think the writing is as good as ever, just changed. This season does seem to be less complex and not quite as philosophical as the first 2 seasons. They seem to have gone a little more mainstream but they are still doing an exceptional job at doing what they are doing. What do you think about the people who think that way? I just tell them that some people weren't meant for the Great Valley beyond season 2!

My copy of Old Testament has Rehobo'am the spelling, so maybe that suggests pronouncing the "am" last syllable. He is son of Solomon, in 2 Chronicles.

Hey D, do you watch Better Call Saul? This season has been amazing.
