The episode "Itchy & Scratchy Land" of the animated series The Simpsons in which a horde of Itchy and Scratchy robots go on a murderous rampage is largely inspired by the plotof Westworld. Another episode of The Simpsons, "The Boy Who Knew Too Much" also features a parody of Westworld with Principal Skinner chasing Bart endlessly as in the film
