    It's an interesting concept but 70 minutes is too long plus too much exposition.

    I kinda love that "every series wants to be the first season of lost". More shows should strive for it.

    ...Beats the h--- out of the saturated generic cop/hospital dramas trying to pass itself off as something unique.

    Most excited about this show rn

    I had to play back the first 10 mins a couple times tbh...then it just clicks and you're in for a nice ride for a pilot.

    I made that comment under there assumption that J.J. had more to do with the show than Nolan. I was wrong.

    I do agree with you on the cop and medical comments as those shows are oversaturated and this is a breath of fresh air but this was overly long and didn't justify it's running time. It was slow and it was like if they overdid lost. As in focus too much on the characters and less on the story. The story is what draws people, not the exposition.

    Seems like I might be the only person to dislike westworld... We'll see...

    Was so good I watched the pilot twice yesterday. The fly symbolism and swatting at the end really showed that Dolores has transcended AI.
