HBO has pulled the plug on its long-running sci-fi series "Westworld." The announcement comes just three months after its season four finale aired on August 14th. Longtime viewers of the dystopian drama were transported to a future in which consciousness, both human and artificial, can be harnessed and moved to other planes of existence where reality is more vivid, more realistic, and deadlier than ever imagined. For several people, HBO's decision to end the series abruptly, particularly after cliffhangers in season four left the plot line open for a final season. "I'm gonna miss all the badass women of Westworld." "Westworld deserved a good ending to this show," one Twitter user wrote, while another Twitter user said, "westworld deserved a fifth and final season."
