Introducing 'Must Watch: Netflix Edition'

"Series Regular" host Josh Wigler dives deep into season three episode five of HBO's "Westworld," the genre-bending drama about killer robots in a killer world. Directed by Anna Foerster and written by Karrie Crouse and Jonathan Nolan, "Genre" is as advertised: a genre-bending ride — at least, that's what it strives for. Whether it succeeds is another question, one that's addressed over the course of the podcast. Beyond the promise of its premise, "Genre" delivers some major story movements in the war between Dolores (Evan Rachel Wood) and Engerraund Serac (Vincent Cassell), while raising new questions about Aaron Paul's Caleb. Wigler recaps all these events and more, with the help of this season's Series Regular co-host, The Hollywood Reporter senior producer Marya Gullo.
