Canceled Too Soon #26 - Beyond Westworld (1980)

Before there was HBO's WESTWORLD, and after there was Michael Crichton's WESTWORLD, there was the short-lived television series BEYOND WESTWORLD. Jim McMullan and Connie Selecca star as Delos agents who are tracking down realistic robots that have been unleashed on the world by a mad scientist, played by James Wainwright. Will they be able to foil his nefarious scheme to take over nuclear submarines, football teams and rock bands?

We'll never know, because unlike the HBO series, BEYOND WESTWORLD was canceled after only three episodes. But was it... CANCELED TOO SOON? Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are on the case, reviewing all five BEYOND WESTWORLD installments, including two that were filmed but never shown on television! Listen up and you'll find out if BEYOND WESTWORLD as really weird as it sounds, and whether it holds a candle to the original movie or to the acclaimed HBO series.
