Westworld Season 1.


HBO has it's new Game of Thrones. Huge cast, huge amount of nudity, 100% amazing production values WESTWORLD is set to be the next big thing on HBO.



Like Netflix, HBO has had for some years the strangle hold on drama and adult comedies. HBO basically created the "Golden Age of Television".

Westworld is yet another sci-fi series based on a 1973 film and with J.J Abrams in the production team this is set to be a big hit. With over 3.3 million US viewers tuning into the first episode this could grow viewership quicker than it's HBO stable mate Game of Thrones.

With Anthony Hopkins, Evan Rachel Wood, James Marsden & Luke Hemsworth (not Thor) leading an all star cast it's hard to imagine this show (if it gets a second series, which no doubt it will) will attract more high profile stars in the future.

TV really is the latest home for a lot of Hollywoods biggest and most notable stars.

Westworld really looks a million bucks and like Game of Thrones the action sequences are delicious.

With a lot of sex thrown in for good measure and nudity galore this will also attract another kind of HBO regular viewers.

I enjoyed the first episode and eagerly await tomorrow's second, as it's a holiday in the USA and Donald Trump looks set to get thumped in the next debate Quantico and Secrets and Lies are off, BOO! Y'all have been back for two weeks and your on a break already. That's why I love cable TV in the USA, holidays or not the shows generally run straight through!

Westworld, the next title in the USA Golden age of TV.
