they never show this movie on tv but they show the sequel (futureworld) every couple of months...why is that????

for some odd reason I like the sequel, caught it many times on the tv...why can't they show this one?

Going to be on Turner Classic Movies on September 22, 2015.

Just saw it and it stands the test of time. Really, Yul Brynner, in all his glorious intensity, makes the movie.

Maybe you don't get the channels that show it. 'Westworld' has aired various times in any given year. As the other posted stated it's on 9/22 on TCM, which is today.

[–] libby2130 7 years ago

of course, now that I own the dvd...the movie keeps popping up!

I agree it's rarely, if ever, on TV.

But I did catch it this morning at 3 am CST.

I think it was on SyFy.

Still holds up, great flick.
