I still love the show, but this season ahsn't connected with me nearly as much. I think the above is the reason for that.
I am with you. I don't care about the robots other than how are they executing Ford's plan. Like when Akane's daughter "died", why didn't Maeve just turn her back on. Heck, they had two body guys with them who's full time job is to patch up "dead" robots.
