Coined as an American dystopian science fiction Western series by creators Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, Westworld first graced our screens on HBO in October 2016. It is inspired by Michael Crichton's 1973 film bearing the same title. The narrative unfolds in a high-tech Wild-West-themed amusement park teeming with android 'hosts.' This park caters to high-paying guests who are encouraged to live out their wildest fantasies without fear of retaliation from hosts – all programmed not to harm humans.
As we delve deeper into this enthralling series, we are taken beyond the confines of Westworld into the real world of mid-21st century. Here, lives are dictated by a powerful artificial intelligence named Rehoboam. As it stands today, Westworld has released four gripping seasons that have kept viewers on edge since its debut.
