Iconic Westworld set burns down in California wildfire
Old West-style buildings used in the production of HBO's Westworld, as well as in other shows and movies, have been destroyed by the fast-moving Woolsey Fire now sweeping through Southern California.
The fire ruined buildings at Paramount Ranch, one of the locations used during seasons 1 and 2 of Westworld.
"Westworld is not currently in production, and as the area has been evacuated, we do not yet know the extent of the damage to any structures remaining there," HBO said in a statement. "Most importantly, our thoughts go out to all those affected by these horrible fires."
The official Twitter account of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area shared a photo of the structures as they looked before the fire, with the message, "We are sorry to share the news that the #WoolseyFire has burned Western Town at #ParamountRanch in Agoura."
Westworld was far from the only production to take advantage of the Old West-style buildings and setting for filming. Dr Quinn, Medicine Woman, the 1990s Western drama starring Jane Seymour filmed there, as well as 1968's Herbie The Love Bug, the acclaimed HBO series Carnivale and more were all filmed there.

No, Ari quite clearly typed "POTIS". And it is Trump that is all up in the racist grill with the "caravan". Pence is still upset about Prop. 8 and the Mormon Mozilla thing.

Many people are saying the big Caravan of People from Honduras is paid for by George Soros. And by the way, if George Soros is so above it all & legit, why did he change his name from Gyorgy Schwartz? He should be proud of his heritage!

We need all the nations in the region to reinforce a VERY SIMPLE message to your people, and it’s a message from the Heart. And that is, the Leaders and the governments should tell your people, don’t put your families at risk by taking the Dangerous Journey north to attempt to enter the United States illegally!!!
