Glad you acted on my behalf to watch Westworld. Loved the flicks, way back, and saw this whole series as a kinda odd exploration in humans having sex with robots(?), or that was the impression i got from peripherally observing. Somehow, without Yul Brynner, it doesnt seem like they should call it that.

I always thought the original (1972?) showed a lot of promise, but ultimately, did not deliver. The first few scenes were nice but then… blah.
