Notes -
I enjoyed it more than you (though it seems unlikely to ascend to previous Vince Gilligan heights, and the lag time between seasons is a bit of a killer).
It doesn't break new philosophical ground but it really landed 'overly efficient logistics = the death of all that is human' in an emotional way, for instance in that opening scene to the finale with the singing tribespeople, who fall tragically silent. I haven't seen that before. I also found the choreography of people moving as one throughout really cool to watch. And I think it's really funny in places.
Sure, Carol is very flawed, but also, her wife suddenly died, and then humanity was replaced before her eyes, and it seems like the whole construction of the show requires her to be antisocial in counterpoint to the extremely socially motivated Others ...
