Too many "what got cancelled too soon" questions, what's a show that went on too long?

It really does. The ending wraps everything up perfectly. The seasons after are basically just "and then they went to theme park B and did it again". There's nothing lost by only watching the original season.

I mostly disagree on the "they went to park b and did it again" bit, but only mostly. Shogunworld was just a detour and it's unclear if any of their Hosts achieved sentience. Season 2 mostly focused on the rebellion happening in the first park. The third and fourth seasons are absolutely going to another park and doing it again, but with the twist that the new park is the real world and reversing the roles of hosts and humans, comparing the hosts' loops to human behavior (which they undermined with Rehoboam, in my opinion).

I give you props for watching it all. I stopped when the shogun stuff started happening. It is nice to know what else happened after, thanks

I loved the show and wanted to see where the story went, but I also completely agree that we didn't need anything after the first season, really.

It's all so perfectly self-contained. I'd love to be able to watch it again if MAX wasn't a steaming pile of crappy content.

Yeah man someone else on here turned me on to it and it's most of my viewing now. I've had a few hiccups with it pulling up something wrong or not finding a video, but I'd say 80% of the time it pulls up what I'm looking for within seconds in a solid quality
