Beyond Westworld

Largely forgotten TV series spun-off from the two successful films "Westworld" and "Futureworld" is a total dud unfortunately. Premise of rogue scientist Simon Quaid(James Wainwright) hijacking the androids of Delos to infiltrate and conquer the world, and the attempts of it's security chief John Moore(Jim McMullan) to stop him makes little sense, either within the continuity of the two films, or even within the constraints of logic, since Moore always seems to go it alone(with the help of fellow agent Pam Williams, played by Connie Selleca) when a threat of this magnitude should be handled by the FBI or other agencies right? Apparently not... Plots of the 5 episodes are dismayingly trite and mundane, failing to involve the viewer in any way, and it all ends inconclusively, making this series a waste of time.

Now on DVD from Warner Archive, so people can judge for themselves.
