I haven't seen Westworld. I'll have to watch it.
It's probably one of the best modern sci-fi works in terms of its futurism. The production clearly had conflicts behind the scenes with HBO which ends up alluded to within it with characters who want to focus on the existential in what they are writing but are forced into writing about violence - but the end product in spite of that is very clever.
The first season especially is fantastic imo. The others are great, but could've been even greater if they went a bit closer to the original theme. The deviation isn't that jarring though. It's a really good show.
