The first in this episodic series, The Original aired October 2, 2016. The episode takes place at a remote park, guests pay to share wild west adventures with android hosts; a programmer warns the park founder about the behavior of some recently re-coded hosts; in the Westworld town of Sweetwater, a rancher’s daughter encounters a gunslinger.
Switch off awareness of your surroundings and focus your attention exclusively on this EW recap. We’re booting up our Analysis Mode of HBO’s Westworld, and there is a lot of data to process. Titled “The Original,” the first episode is the most dense packing of characters, story lines, and mysteries that I’ve seen on TV since the Game of Thrones pilot five years ago. There are no dragons, sure, but there is a Dolores — and I suspect she’s going to wreak more havoc on this show than Drogon in Westeros.
