It's pretty Trippy from what I saw. I saw the ending first and then when it came on a couple of houts later, I tried to watch it from the beginning, but it was late, so I fell asleep. Everyone seemed to be mumbling, so I kept jacking up the volume. Lots of nudity, which is never a bad thing.
What sucks is that it looks like it's going to come on the same time as Ash vs Evil Dead!

Who are the ones doing the nudity bits? I don't want to tune in and then suddenly get an eyeful of Anthony Hopkins' nakkid ass.

anthony hopkins has his jacket off sometimes, but that's as nude as he's gotten so far. no full monty. he's kind of a damn tease
one of the stars (but he hasn't shown up yet) is one of the pervert guys from 'always sunny in philadelphia', who sometimes played 'lyle the intern' on letterman, so who knows what will happen

I'm watching it. I'm hooked. Who knew a McPhoyle would turn out to be such a nice chap?
Love all the nice little details they put into it, like No Surprises being used in the bar, or how Anthony Hopkins comes off as God to the hosts. And Ed Harris, the guy manages to be likeable and creepy at the same time. It's a shame we already know that the hosts can't hurt him, otherwise he'd look real badass taking down dozens of people by his lonesome.

Well, if he's a bot like Yul Brynner was in the original, maybe he found a way to make himself come off as humans to the bots and to the guns. Otherwise he'd have been dead already.
He is likeable, but in an evil way! Not like that Lee storyline designer guy who's just a plain jackshit.

Isn't that guy who's playing the storyline designer the same guy who played Stephen Hawkings and will be in the new JK Rowlings movie?

I'm not familiar enough with him. I thought he was Luke Evans at first, kinda looked like him. I watched one of his films, the one with the exorcism found footage thing but didn't register enough. He's apparently a priest in that.

this westworld thing is scratching me right where I itch! how i'd love to live in a world full of these soulless metallic bastards strutting around. interestingly, yul brenner's last film role was in 1976's futureworld, an inferior sequel to westworld. but he only appeared in a fantasy sequence where he banged gwyneth paltrow's mom. and strangely enough, it's mostly remembered for the "eyes wide open kiss". creepy!
yul brenner was an interesting guy. the sob was scaring 60 when he did futureworld, sporting that well-shaped chrome dome of his. why can so few guys pull that off? actually i mean, why can so few white guys pull that off?

You've got to have a badass guy face like Vin Diesel, The Rock, or even Bruce Willis for it to work. If I tried to shave my head I'd look like Wooly Willy in his unwooly state.
That's why I'm going the opposite route and just letting the hair grow. I might let my beard grow out, too. The sad thing is, I'll be going for a Lebowski look but I'll end up being shadowed by kids at the mall who think I'm Santa.

McPhoyle did come of as likeable in this. He sort of had a Christien Slater vibe. It's sad, though. They said you discover yourself there, but all he discovered was he was too uptight to have a good time. The ladies there were walking, talking fleshlights for crying out loud. WHo was that host he had at the beginning. She was smoking hot! There's no way I would have made it out of that dressing room in under an hour.

I just remembered where I saw her before. She was Miss Evangelista, the first one to get eaten by the Vashti Nerata in "The Library" episode of Doctor Who!

She's also married to Elon Musk.
There's this theory going around that McPhoyle is actually Ed Harris:
- His scenes with his asshole friend are a flashback and that he's going to fall in love with Delores.
- the company added Teddy as a standin for McPhoyle, in order to distract Delores.
- Then his scenes as the man in black is him looking for a way for Delores to start remembering.
- some even say the scene where he dragged Delores into a barn is not a rape scene, and that he was trying to make her remember.
Pretty damn good theory but who knows. Either way, just goes to show how good the series is as people are already picking at it just two episodes in.
