HBO has ordered a second season of the sci-fi robopocalypse thriller Westworld– along with renewing fellow fall freshman series Divorce and Insecure. All three will have another 10 episodes.
There’s just one catch: Given its epic scope, Westworld probably won’t return until 2018, says HBO’s programming president Casey Bloys. The Westworld pick-up was expected as the show has delivered a mix of critical praise, pop culture buzz, and strong ratings (the series is averaging 11.7 million viewers across all the network’s platforms – more than even Game of Thrones racked up during its first season).
