I fell behind on Season 2, but I do enjoy reading your comments and thoughts on the series. I really love it.

I loved season 1, I haven't really started on s2, I guess I better get on that. Season 1 really tested a lot of boundaries in defining consciousness, I'm guessing that s2 does the same?

Quite enjoying the twists and turns. Was actually surprised by the Thandie Newton interview with Trevor Noah on TDS before the 2nd season had begun where she kept insisting, "They're just things!" It was almost like a spoiler as the 1st season seemed to establish them as having some human-like self-awareness.

It reminds me a bit of the thematic differences between Philip K. Dick's "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" versus the first "Bladerunner" movie. In the book, no matter how hard the replicants tried, they were lacking that basic essence of what it means to be human. In the movie, that was pretty much flipped. The replicants were on their way to gaining that spark of humanity that humans were progressively losing (as evidenced by Rutger Hauer's "tears in the rain" monologue).

I saw season one and was definitely drawn into the story line. I would enjoy cathing subsequent seaskns, but cannot find on Netflix. I remember the original movie with Yul Brenner. Drew me in then, I haven't left since.

Did you like the Blade Runner mivies? If so there is a Netflix series calked," Altered Carbon" which is roughly based upon the Blade Runner world. I highly recommend.

I loved the original film, although I love Michael Crighton's novels, I never read WW. I really love this show because it is so much deeper than the film ever tried to be. In Season 1, I had trouble keeping up with the "Android" perspective as has been mentioned; mainly because the androids (or Hosts), relive their memories in real time and this was shown to us (without explanation) in season 1. I believe that was intentional because we were also tracking the stories of Human characters through the Hosts (Ed Harris, most notably). S2 is excellent as well, IMO, and this aspect of it is not as used, but they are using flashback to help fill the backstory (particularly with the character you mentioned).

I think that people find it a bit disjointed because it keeps switching back and forth between the android outlook and the human outlook which at first glance appear to be the same but really aren't so it can be a bit confusing. I loved the original movie back in the 70's with Yule Brenner as the gun fighter, basically reprising his roll from The Magnificent Seven.

The concept of the first season was kind of interesting so I watched the entire season.....the second season doesn't seem to have much coherence and I'm finding it hard to understand the plot lines. ????? This might be one of those shows better to binge watch - seeing the episodes a week apart makes it hard to follow, for me anyway.

I started watching, saw maybe 4 episodes, but lost interest.

Hi are you talking about the 2nd season?

So often feels disjointed, that I feel as confused as Arnold. Was surprised to read a piece from Sam Harris on the show, regarding the ethics of its material. [samharris.org]westworld-whats-wrong-cruelty-robots/

I get frustrated sometimes because I'm not always sure ''when'' it is. BUT...it reminds me of "Lost"...an all-time favorite. And I really want to see where this will end. (Anyone else a fan of Jeffrey Wright?)

I love it. Such a brilliant reimagining of the book and film by the writers at HBO.

Now we need HBO to pick up and run with Stephen Kings Dark Tower series.

It has been a very good show cannot wait for the next episode

Is this the Yul Bryner film or has it been remade? Not familiar with the name Zahn McClarnon.

One of my faves

He also played the character Hanzee on the
third season of Fargo . The best thing about Westworld is that you can't immediately tell if something is actually happening or if it's a flashback or simulation. I really like it too .

I LOVE WW!. No spoilers though. I will have to wait for tomorrow's finale until we're back from vacation.

The way Season 2 is going right now is a great parallel between man and religion and how we found religion, etc. Acting it out with these AI beings is fascinating. Everyone has a purpose or wants a purpose. Many beings have feelings of things happening before. This is very much how we really are.

I love Westworld. Have not as yet watched season two. Life just seem to get in the way or I really have to get of this site to watch it instead.

I was feeling baffled for the first few shows of the new season. Now I'm enjoying it again!
