Westworld (SPOILERS) is the best HBO since The Wire
It was frankly dragging for me until the key reveal happens in episode 6, I think (trying to avoid any spoilers for those who have not binged it yet) ... but, frankly, IMO, it isn't a pimple on Prop Joe's ass.
I'll keep watching, though.
Obscenity is the last refuge of an inarticulate motherfucker.
500 internet fights, that's the number I figured when I first joined igglephans. 500 internet fights and you could consider yourself a legitimate internet-tough guy. You need them for experience, to develop leather skin. So I got started. Of course along the way you stop thinking about being tough and all that. It stops being the point. You get past the silliness of it all. But then...after...you realize that's what you are.

The show is another take on the man's attempt to create life goes haywire theme ... Jewish folklore about the "golem" (no, not from Lord of the Rings) ... and later in Frankenstein, Hal in 2001, I Robot, etc. etc.
Like I wrote above, it was dragging early and then the big reveal happens and it got much better ... I'll keep watching, but it's not a new idea.
