Beyond Westworld is a short-lived 1980 television series that carried on the stories of the two feature films, Westworld and Futureworld. It features Jim McMullan as Security Chief John Moore of the Delos Corporation. The story revolves around John Moore having to stop the evil scientist, Quaid, as he plans to use the robots in Delos to try to take over the world. Despite being nominated for two Emmys (Outstanding Achievement In Makeup, and Outstanding Art Direction For A Series), only five episodes were produced, and only three of them were aired before cancellation.
Judith Chapman only appeared in the pilot for the series. Her character of Laura Garvey was supposed to be John Moore's companion for the series. But she was replaced by Connie Sellecca with the second episode. Sellecca had just come off a successful run as an airline stewardess in the TV series "Flying High".
