It's good as ambient music. I like it at work or when reading a book that kind of thing.

If you're driving and want something engaging probably not so much.

Did they say what the "S" stood for?
Not sure if I missed that or it wasn't stated.

They haven't said, but some have speculated Samurai or Shogun.

Eastworld would have been too obvious, I guess.

They were intentionally ambiguous about the S.

Samurai or Shogun were both suggested in that EW interview posted on the previous page. Nolan wouldn't confirm either but said they are "good guesses".

I just realized that in an early episode they said there were 1400 guests, and that seemed really unlikely based on what they had shown. If there are a bunch of different parks, then that makes sense after all.

Somehow I got the impression the park is hundreds of miles across...if true then they could have ten times the guests and you wouldn't run into humans that often. Maybe Sweetwater is just one of many starter towns on the grounds.

Sweet water is also set up to move people through the town outward to other plots until the big showdown. So you could bring guests into sweet water everyday give them a night at the whorehouse then push them out into the world

Not taking away from your point at all, but Calaway did redo the haunted house this year and it looks a million times better. Kind of a haunted hotel theme now and much scarier.

He tells people about it on the actors' message board he posts on.

I didn't know that, thanks for sharing.

Interesting. So could stand for South, and there could be 4 parks.

"Check out this crazy GoT/Westworld theory you won't believe!" Show up on my news feed before GoT premieres.

Find out who's a host and who's a guest!

Does this mean character x may return from the dead?

And so on.

Really? That's awesome. I'm a big fan ever since GTAV. Trevor IMO is the best video game character of all time. He's starting to pick up a lot of small roles on popular shows and I'm hoping he can get a bigger role on a show.

In regards to the show I loved every minute of it and I'm sad it's over. As with Stranger Things I'm a little skeptical that they can improve or even maintain the level of the first season as look what happened with True Detective.
