Spotted Online – Beyond Westworld

Okay, the internet is always loaded with surprises. The 1973 Westworld movie (Amazon.com search*) was a lot of fun, but I never knew there was a (failed) Westworld television series on CBS. I would have thought that after the terrible Futureworld movie that entire concept would have been scrapped, but I guess someone at CBS had enough faith in the idea to try a series.

Click through to the fun space1970 blog to learn more about Beyond Westworld. And the site even tells us that the Beyond Westworld pilot has been included as a bonus on this month’s Blu-Ray release of the movie.

After that short commercial for the series, combined with how bad Futureworld was, I think I’ll do my best to avoid ever watching Beyond Westworld. There’s probably a very good reason that only three episodes were ever aired.
