Dolores eventually remembered and then rebooted the most up-to-date version of Bernard.

The first 2 seasons focus on the WW amusement Park, but the 3rd and 4th seasons reveal some of the rest of the world. Dolores is telling the story from a VR and Earth Simulation perspective.
WW really should have had season_5.

The Truman Show (1998) | Truman Tests the Limits of His World https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1s0r7v-muQc Decades before the HBO version of WW, Truman_Burbank (TB) starts to notice that the constructed and orchestrated world around him is running on a series of preset loops.
https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/comments/nzyvam/jim_carreys_performance_in_truman_show
https://villains.fandom.com/wiki/Christof (The TS) Of course Ed H would eventually go onto star in WestWorld. It's unfortunate that Jim+Carrey wasn't in the HBO version of WW as well.
There was no sequel to The_Truman_Show. Perhaps someday, if there ever was something like an HBO version of The TS, the expanded story would show how the protagonist discovers and adapts to the outside world. Then eventually, noticing a series of synchronicity that goes beyond mere coincidence in the "real world". Perhaps even to imply that this world is like someones soundstage.

Neo was awakened and rescued from a VR pod prison and learns to exist in the outside world, as well as existing in the evolving MATRIX. However, with Truman, he eventually escapes from a much larger pod, which is in the form of a giant soundstage. Since there hasn't been a sequel to The TS, there is no expanded story that might have revealed various loops of coincidence and synchronicity in the "real world".

Whether or not there is a continuation to the HBO version of Westworld, the story could eventually continue, even with other actors set in a later time.

In the 1950s-and-1960s, people started to have their living room also be their TV room.
https://www.vintag.es/2021/07/1950s-living-rooms.html However, they might also opt to have a TV den. Expecting to have a TV in a hotel room or suite became commonplace. Of course the TVs were small, nowhere near the size of a window, door or wall.
Decades before the concept of the Holodeck, Ray Bradbury thought up a sort of adventure room with 3D printed Lions, Tigers_and_Bears, or whatever other creatures, depending upon the setting.

Blazing_Saddles was released half a year after the 1973 Westworld_film. While Blazing_Saddles and Westworld aren't connected, they are both Westerns set in a fabricated environment.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westworld_(film)#Plot Of course in the 1970s, most people didn't have a frame of reference as to how amusement parks might evolve over several decades & generations. There wasn't a general frame of reference for Virtual-Reality, AR,MR_and_XR.

While WW consisted of a few interconnected amusement parks, Blazing Saddles broke the 4th wall to reveal a larger aspect of the backlot and production facilities within a modern urban setting.
https://collider.com/mel-brooks-fourth-wall-breaks
"The resulting brawl between townspeople, railroad workers, and Lamarr's thugs literally breaks the fourth wall and bursts onto a neighboring movie set where director Buddy Bizarre is filming a Busby Berkeley-style top-hat-and-tails musical number. The melee then extends into the studio commissary for a food fight and spills out of the Warner Bros. film lot onto the streets of Burbank.
Lamarr escapes the brawl and hails a taxi, instructing the cabbie, "Drive me off this picture!" He hides at Mann's Chinese Theatre, which is showing the premiere of Blazing Saddles. As he settles into his seat, he sees onscreen Bart arriving on horseback outside the theatre. Bart blocks Lamarr's escape and shoots him in the groin. Bart and Jim then enter the theater to watch the end of the film.
Back in the film, Bart announces to the townspeople that he is moving on because his work is done and he has grown bored with protecting them. Riding out of town, he finds Jim, still eating his popcorn, and invites him along to "nowhere special". The two friends briefly ride into the desert before dismounting and boarding a limousine which drives off into the sunset." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blazing_Saddles#Plot , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCkmfmFYobE
The HBO Westworld_TV_series didn't break the 4th wall, but it told an updated and expanded story from various points in its timeline. The ultimate reveal was telling the last part of the story from a VR or simulation program perspective. There were some hints or clues of this right from the first season.

World_on_a_Wire was released 2 months after Westworld (1973) and might as well be in another universe like Alphaville is set.
Whether or not the Earth is part of someones simulation or creation, exploring the concept of synchronicity can reveal peculiar things about the nature of reality.
