I used sub-titles
purists may scoff but it removed a lot of ambiguity/confusion from the pretty intense plot.

Oh and the first 4 or so episodes I was very "meh" about, in fact I strongly disliked half the cast. But I perservered to the end of the first season, and it really was a cracking climax. OK so the first couple of episodes were boring, but it is a slow slow buildup which makes the ending so much more worthwhile.

From season 2 in every minute of every episode was a joy.

damn, that's how long I gave it, but I gave up.
I don't think you should have to waste 4 hours on a TV show for it to get good.

You do when it's that good.

It really is worth it
I can quite honestly say that I'll never watch another show that comes close. Can't recommend it highly enough.

These two are talking sense
Besides series one was great also. I loved the first 3 episodes, you get to know the characters.
