I like how season 1 was wrapped. It tells a mostly complete story, while setting the stage for season 2.
The music stands out as one of my favorite parts of the show. The player piano plays more modern music in an old timey style and I love it. The Paint it Black song in the first episode was amazing along with Black Hole Sun, Fake Plastic Trees, No Surprises, Motion Picture Soundtrack, House of the Rising Sun, and, the clincher, Exit Music (For a Film). Whoever was in charge must have loved Radiohead.
Freaking awesome show! Finale wrapped up the season well while setting up the next season. Blows that other cable show on at the same time out of the water.
Side note: One of the writers on Westworld (I forget exactly which one) is helping write The Last of Us II. I'm insanely excited.
