Westworld Episode 2: Chesnut Photos Released

HBO's latest hit, Westworld, has taken the world by storm. The concept alone is so unique, that audiences showed out for the debut just to try and understand what was going on. No matter your reason for watching, many have been enthralled by the new series, and are anxiously awaiting next week's episode.

Lukcy for us, a week isn't all that long.

The reason audiences are so captivated by Westworld, is because it is a story that creates a genre all its own. There's really nothing else like it on television.

The series follows Dr. Robert Ford, the creator of Westworld. Essentially, he has dreamed up an entire world, or theme park, that users can pay to enter. Westworld isn't like most theme parks, as it resembles real life, just in the old west.

When you go into this world, you are greeted by robots, called hosts.

Hosts my look, act, sound, and feel just like humans, but they are definitely not. This creates the fun for the user, as they can do whatever they want in Westworld with absolutely zero consequence. No matter what trouble they caused, the world would reset at the end of each day.

Eventually, a group of the hosts begin to understand that they aren't real, and leads a rebellion against the creators.

The series is based on a 1973 film of the same name, and was written by Jurassic Park creator, Michael Crichton.
