Season 1 was masterful. A clear 10 for me. The story, despite going into a pretty common direction (robots apocalypse), is written really well, with great dialogue(especially in the scenes involving dr. Ford), great action scenes as well as very intriguing moments. Anthony Hopkins delivers one of his best performances as dr. Ford who was my favorite character (big nonsense he didn't win the Emmy for the role). Season finale is awesome for many reasons, the only issue I find is that the series could've easily ended with that episode, saving us from the quality drop of the next 2 seasons.
Season 2 was good too, a 9 for me. I've enjoyed the introspection moments and the backstory of MIB. One of the obvious cons is the transformation of Dolores who becomes a soulless killing machine. Also, the decision of the writers to kill Ford at the end of season 1 affects the quality of the next season which lack the engaging dialogue S1 had. Actually, in my opinion, Westworld died when Bernard removed Ford from his code.
Season 3 has a sophisticated apparence but a dull core. A 6.5 for me. If you're big action movies fan, you'll probably enjoy it, there are many fight scenes, explosions and so on, but there's a great lack of relevant dialogue and great psychological moments. Sérac is a joke of a villain compared to Ford who always had things under control. William/Man in Black character is totally wasted this season, basically doing nothing besides being the prisoner of Dolores, health center and then Bernard. More than that he's stupidly killed in the post credits scene which takes out of the show the second most complex character after Ford and making sure Season 4 will be a disappointment as well. Between the pros I'd mention the great cinematography and the return to Dolores' fundamental values in the last episode, even though that motivation seemed pretty forced too.
