'Westworld' episode 2 available to stream now — here's how to watch

Culture

HBO has released the second episode of its new series Westworld early — and any viewer with HBO Go, HBO Now or HBO On Demand can watch it now.

The network put the sci-fi Western series' second installment, along with the premieres of Issa Rae's Insecure and the new Sarah Jessica Parker dark comedy Divorce, on their streaming services two days ahead of their actual air date on Sunday. All are available to stream immediately.

Westworld, an adaptation of Jurassic Park writer Michael Chabon's 1973 film of the same name, scored big ratings for HBO for its premiere. Forbes noted the episodes were likely uploaded early because of Sunday's second presidential debate. The last debate scored 80 million viewers — tough competition for even the biggest new hits.
