Bad news: Westworld, the futuristic show about lifelike robots finding their humanity, is no longer available to stream on Max, despite that service encompassing HBO, where Westworld originally aired. There’s good news too, though: You can currently grab Westworld: The Complete Series on Blu-ray from Amazon at a deep discount.
The box set includes all four seasons of Westworld, comprising 36 episodes. It’s currently available for $57, which is half off from the list price of $113. Alternatively, if you have a 4K TV and device that can play it–such as an Xbox Series X or PS5–you can grab the 4K Blu-ray box set for $71. This particular edition is an import from the UK, but it is region free, so US media players can still read the discs.
Westworld begins in a theme park created for rich people to live out their fantasies as cowboys, playing both heroes and villains. The park is populated by lifelike robots who play the roles of bandits, damsels, and everything in between, and since they’re not alive, the human guests who frequent the park can do whatever they want to them–including some pretty horrific stuff. Of course, things get intense from there in the sci-fi series. It’s based on the 1973 movie of the same name, written and directed by Jurassic Park author Michael Crichton.
While Westworld was a phenomenon in its own right when it started airing in 2016 and throughout its run, it might be notable now because of what its creators went on to do. Westworld was created by Lisa Joy and Jonathan Nolan, who are also the creators of Amazon Prime Video’s recently released Fallout series.
For DVD preferrers, Amazon has you covered as well. You can find Westworld Season 1 on DVD for $10 (normally $30), Westworld Season 2 for $15 (normally $30), Westworld Season 3 for $15 (normally $30), and Westworld Season 4 for $13. And if you want to check out the movie that inspired the series, you can get the 1973 Westworld on Blu-ray for $8.80, down from $15.
