Ok gang ...dive in.
What did you think?
We've just bought a NOW TV box, having realised that (1) we're never going back to Sky, and (2) that Sky will never let Virgin Media show Sky Atlantic. One of the series we got it for is Westworld, and we're currently at episode 5. I haven't read any of the posts on this thread so far, save for Bill's initial one and a quick glance at Rory's rant.
So far, we like it, and while it isn't right up there with the best we're finding it to be interesting and thought-provoking. It helps that we like the main actors, and although the intro to the main title music is sort of sub-Game of Thrones, the rest of it is fine and the score choices generally are really enjoyable.
Will definitely finish it before Christmas, whereupon I'll read the rest of this thread and perhaps (if you're lucky!) comment accordingly.

Talk about a mixed bag!!!!!!
STart with the acting. You have wonderful performances by Hopkins, Wood, Newton, Wright contrasted with ridiculous overacting by other actors whose names I do not know (the lab tech, the script writer, the yuppie investor etc). And that chick who was trying to oust Ford > Wasn't she a bit young to be a corporate honcho?
The series was really dull and uninvolving for the first few eps.
It ended pretty strong.
ANother great soundtrack by Rwadhi!!!
How can they cast Lili Taylor as a prostitute and not get her nekkid (she has the best derriere in cinema!) 
The ending was pretty confusing and how could they kill off Anthony???
Very provocative themes explored with intelligence
THe "western" scenes did nothing for me..
Check it out!
brm

" How has the park avoided multiple fatalities and severe injuries throughout the 30 odd years?
While the hosts can't shoot the guests, there are plenty of other ways a guest could get killed or maimed."
Yeah, that was the big plot hole in the thing

ANone else notice this:
the Hopkins character in WESTWORLD closely resembles the creator of JURRASIC PARK in the novel (not the film version)

I hate apples, McGann! I hate 'em!
I do like citrus fruit, though. Your lemons, your oranges, your grapefruits.
And i was never a thing. That was just a rumour started by the other lads.
