If you want hot robot chicks, watch Dollhouse

A Joss Whedon outing which has a very similar premise: the "dollhouse" is a collection of people whose personalities/memories are wiped and then programmed as clients wish. It sets up all kinds of interesting questions - for example, using the tech it's possible to imprint your own personality and memories on multiple clones of you, meaning you don't really care if one of you dies...the ultimate resolution was a little disappointing if I'm honest but the idea was a good one, and by the sounds of it quite similar to Westworld. Of course some of the clients just want sex but most of them want something more, and there are all kinds of interesting ethical questions to ponder while admiring Eliza Dushku's acting range, as her character has to take on a wide variety of different personalities, usually while not overburdened with too much clothing.
