Westworld is really starting to intrigue.

Anyone else watching?
Have not seen this. Is it based on the original early 70's film with Yul Brynner and James Brolin as guests of a high end amusement park?
Railton

Yes.  But the twist here is..it's mostly from the point of view of the androids and the staff at the park instead of the visitors like in the movie.
How fast is my 911?  Supras sh*t on on me all the time...in reverse..with blown turbos  :( ...

Yep.  Totally hooked.
Wokeism is nothing more than the recognition and opposition of bigotry in all its forms.  Bigots are predictably triggered.

They've taken many ideas/themes from the movie, but as noted, turned it around so we're seeing the synthetic human's view points much more than the guests.

I am hoping it doesn't go all cuckoo-bananas like "Lost".  Because JJ Abrams.

BTW..did anybody notice that when the 2 guys came (and the one guy chose the white hat) that the "Westworld" symbol was different?  Like this part of the story was happening in a different time?

I didn't notice that but there is speculation that William and the Man in Black are the same person.

Netflix has a canadian police show called "under arrest".

The show is both sad and hilarious.  Sometimes hilariously sad.

Seems its mostly from RCMP and edmonton police, circa 90s or early 2000s

Driving thrills makes my wallet lighter.. and therefore makes me faster because i'm shedding weight... :D

Season 3 of Black Mirror is up on Netflix Canada!  Fascinating (and sometimes uncomfortable) dive into life with social media and technology as we know it.

Presently watching "American Horror Story- Coven".   
Some good actors in it having fun with their characters.

Lovin' the new Charger on Agents of Shield.

The first arrest in the first episode is one of those hilarious/sad ones.  It's a simple drunk driving tag, and the guy is oblivious to the fact that he's wasted, to the fact that he's been arrested, and then acts like he's being tortured when all the officer does is handcuff him.  He's got to be one of the whinest little btches ever.

How did I miss this show. Check Netflix and no S1. Lucky for me it's on Shomi. Watched the first two episodes and love it.

Thx.

Considering I had no idea what this show was about, it really set the bar high. Talk about a season opener.

I don't know how I've managed to miss this show. Just watched an episode of season 3 and now I'll have to go back to the beginning and watch all of them. Very interesting premise.
