and humans are still doing human things to make them lose the battle...like taking at trip to a dangerous warehouse for a box of teddy bears for children. Pretty hopeless story.

and it was also good as a chase movie.
I've found a lot of the episodes have underlying commentary on many things - that's part of what I like most about the series. It's thought-provoking if you go beyond just the stories. You can see how easily technology can go off-the-rails in the near future.
