I definitely think the cable offerers experience mass exodus of HBO subscribers when a season of GOT ends. RCN threw a whole bunch of deals our way to get us to keep our package when we were going to downgrade post S6.

Crichton wrote and directed the original “Westworld” in 1973. The premise is also a tad different from “Dollhouse” (which I was heartbroken when it was cancelled).
