Small Talk: Hop On The Rollercoaster Ride!

[Meredith Quill]

The Small Talk topic is for:

 

• Introductions
• Off-topic chatter
• Having virtual tea with forum buddies

 

This is NOT a topic for actual show discussion. When you want to talk about the show:

 

1. Figure out the nature of the topic you want to talk about
2. Look for an existing topic that matches or fits
3. If there is NOT an existing topic that fits, CREATE ONE!

 

Examples of topics that populate show forums include (but by no means are limited to):

 

• Character topics
• Episode topics
• Season topics
• Spoiler topics
• Speculation topics
• In the Media topics
• Favourite X topics
• ...you get the idea

 

Happy trails beyond Small Talk!

Not sure if this is the correct thread, but here goes: do any of you also watch the series "Humans"? What are your thoughts comparing the 2 shows? I was ultimately disappointed by Westworld and felt the other show answered more questions with less glitz.

Jeffrey Wright did a cute short film in which he's in an airplane and has a conversation with several versions of himself. This belongs here because it's in the "other episodes" section on HBO's Westworld On-Demand  area on Spectrum cable and probably other companies. So it's an extra...and worth a look.

I think Humans has reached greater levels of pathos than WW has.

The robots in that show also achieve consciousness but their reactions to their awakening are varied whereas in the first season of WW, it was all about revenge for being exploited.

Characters like Mia and Max show their humanity.  The same can't be said about the hosts in WW.
