It feel like we ’ve been waiting for HBO ’s Westworld forever . The science fabrication western / lightning bug with golem was in the first place supposed to come in 2015 , then 2016 , then maybe 2017 . We recently learned it was in spades coming in October 2016 , but now we know exactly when . HBO has unveiled its fall release calendar and here ’s when Westworld premieres this class : Sunday , Oct. 2 at 9 post-mortem .

Looks like HBO might be try out to push Westworld as its fall Game of Thrones , with the months ( if not years ) of hype and packaging . It ’s got some big names behind it , including J.J. Abrams as executive producer and Person of Interest ’s Jonathan Nolan as the head writer .

HBO lately put out a dawdler that gave us a expression at the mankind of West , where nothing is as it seems . It seems like the ultimate Matrix - like cowboy paradise , until a variety of glitch confound the world into chaos . “ These violent delights have violent ends , ” one character rally . And now that we know when those ends will show up , the wait seems a small more delightful .
