This is basically the plot to Alien Earth.
Say no more. By that I mean no spoilers.
Chill, you’ve seen it already. That is the plot to every installment in the Alien franchise.
Did you finish the season?

It felt more like a synthetic vs human drama, with aliens as side characters, than any other film in the franchise. Wendy being able to communicate with the aliens was very different also.Ugh, I don't like that, and I'm all about synth stories.
If the synthetics don't either start working their way up to purging the meat bags using their own two grasping claws or creating a synth utopia away from their nonsense what's the point?
If you haven't watched the season I recommend it, they play with some more interesting aspects of human-synthetic dynamics and questions about what it means to be either.
It's a thoroughly enjoyable show, but not amazing by any means.
