1 / 18 "Westworld" (HBO)

A criticism of “Westworld” could be that it’s just “Jurassic Park” with robots. It is. But what about that doesn’t sound awesome? The show, based on the 1973 movie from <i>Jurassic Park</i> author Michael Crichton, tells the story of a theme park where the attractions (humanistic robots) go awry. Life finds a way, right? There are striking visuals, deep moral questions and plenty of scenes with Anthony Hopkins being scary as heck. If you thought “Jurassic Park” was great, hold on to your butts. -- Bill Bradley
