Westworld TV Show

You don't advertise on spare rooms.com do you?
Haha, no. There are just too many series that follow the same formula every week, like that Blacklist I had to stop watching - each episode some different bad guy comes along and the agents save the day whilst hardly any of the actual main plot moves along.

You didnt stick with the Blacklist then, I agree, it was very much as you described, I was about to give up on it as well but then there was much more of an over reaching story arc, whilst still having various people brought to justice, within that story.

Think I gave it at least 2 seasons! Too many series nowadays, a lot of them good, so no time to waste on sub-par ones.
 
So they have introduced two human characters similar to the film
I think the man in black is a robot. In the second episode, before he shoots that guys wife, one of the robots nearly shoots him and one attacks him from behind and grabs him. If he was a human they wouldn't be able to do that would they?
Show is aired now, i think they mentioned that a customer has just shot up an entire town just after he did that so it does point to the fact he is Human,also didn't he say he had been coming back for years?
 
It'd make a lot more sense if the guests were not killing robots willynilly. Imagine you're in a storyline and someone kills a key robot, there would be constant fisticuffs between guests.

The second episode IMO made the already loose logic more silly. Essentially, the violence is ruining it for me.

I'll watch the 3rd episode but I hope it tries to make it more "believable" as far as how Westworld is supposed to normally operate.

You did better than me, I don't think I finished the first season!!

Even Luther, which i'm binging on right now, although done very well is practically the same each week, although to be fair an over arching story has built up which is catching up with him now. (3rd season)

There's so many ways Westworld could go, but and the end of the day its up to the viewer weather they like it or not.

Me, I love it but then I would do because fantasy/sci fi/drama is right up my street. I love GoT, Lost etc

Yeah, i was thinking the same. I reckon id be the prick just walking around shooting robots just before they reach the big finale of a storyline, ruining it for everyone
 
You'd end up stabbed ... and not by a robot.

I have to believe in the essence (lack of holes) of a story and I have to believe it's going somewhere. And I like to have some humour baked in. StrangerThings is a good example. Or GOT. But I fear this could be a Lost.

Lost was everything I hate... over-dramatic soppy shit, over-dramatic absurd situations and essentially a fraud in that it pretended to go somewhere when in reality it was paper thin. Just as TWD seems to be going.

Thank God for City.

I've gave up on GoT when it first came out in season 1 because I couldn't stand Geoffrey. I know, they've done brilliantly to cast someone that can make you hate a character so much, but I really fucking couldn't stand watching him. Then when everyone started banging on about it again I thought, right I must've missed something and might've been too eager to quit. Watched it all through up to date now and hated every minute - apart from the Khaleesi side of the world, the Unsullied are cool (apart from the whole eunuch thing). The reason I probably liked the Unsullied side of the world is because I'm more into Mafia, Action, Thriller type stuff. I do like fantasy but I was disappointed a lot in the Westeros side of the world - the red wedding could have been done a lot better, it wasn't as gruesome or shocking as it should have been, it was quite comical how they did it. The guy who wrote it/those that produce it are clearly randy bastards and include way too much from a productive point of view - kind of like overusing the "sex sells" thing to the point of losing some momentum in the storyline or where they could have used the time to include more depth. Also that woman knight (forgot her name) with the squire is so boring and ineffectual to the story. Also Lost, I started watching when it came out, I was still quite young but don't remember liking it with it being drawn out - probably stopped after S1. I do like fantasy type worlds, but it has to be done well and not be a tame family friendly, dungeons and dragons bore - I like gritty productive work that supports the ambience of the scene (a lot of Italian productions do this extremely well - e.g. Gomorra).

So to summarise, if your drawing parallels to GoT and Lost I probably won't like this too much!
 
Is it possible the bullets are only effective on robots? The man in black has been shot twice now and the bullets just disintegrate. Firstly in the first episode by the guy from X-Men and then by shotgun by Thandie Newton in her flashback.

It would make sense as how else would you stop humans accidentally shooting each other? this would point to the man in black being a human. It also gives credance to the gun the girl found. If its real she can shoot back!
