When it finally arrived on screens late last year, Westworld was the huge hit HBO hoped it would be. Receiving critical acclaim, sending viewers into a theorising frenzy, and scoring big in the ratings, the dystopian sci-fi epic lived up to its billing as Game of Thrones' heir apparent.

Season 1 created a web of mysteries to untangle, mixed with some great performances and, of course, a whole lot of sex and violence. The stunning finale left things on a knife edge, with the action ready to boil over, the fates of numerous characters in the balance, and potentially new worlds to explore.

Unfortunately, due to the mammoth production work involved in creating the show, it won't be back until 2018. It's a shame not only because of how good it was, but just how much there is left to pick-up on.
