      You're both so right. The whole idea that the Wild West brothel is the foundational human fantasy is itself fantasy.

      a park for a larger moneyed audience — i.e. analogous to HBO subscribers, which is why it feels so overtly meta.

      I honestly think that’s the central subject of the show. An anxiety dream about making prestige exploitainment.

          I see it also as baked into the tradition of TV Westerns — Miss Kitty — but it def reflects GoT & Sopranos.

          Mine would be "Restworld," with tea and books and long walks on the downs. Doesn't make for very good TV tho probly
