Just finished S1 and enjoyed it, although it feels like these themes have been explored in plenty of other SF.  I dislike Leo though, he always feels like a spoilt child sulking or throwing a tantrum. 

The biggest flaw in the story is the use of lifelike androids.  Once we make robots look and act similar to humans, it opens the door for empathy, attachment and creepier emotions.  I would hope that in reality we keep robots distinct from humans in appearance.  They early eps did a good job of exploring the social outcomes of lifelike androids even before consciousness is a possibility.

Still need to watch season 2. Too much TV around as it was on my watchlist yet wound up buried. First season finished in a good place for me and there's always the fear the second series of these shows are aimless. Third season suggests this wasn't the case
