Most shows follow a pattern: They start out slightly shaky, then get better and better, reach their peak during the second or third season and then start to decline step by step until they are not watchable anymore, unless someone pulls the plug in time.
With this show, the start is weak. Really, really weak. And then suddenly it's like someone flipped a switch and it feels like all those annoying episodes one had to sit through actually had a point. Boring characters become suddenly interesting, the puzzle pieces fit together and you ask yourself what will the show do next.
Since the show needed to long to hit its stride, fans tend to be more critical of it than they would if they had gotten hooked from the get go. But I can honestly say that it just gets better and better.
So, give it a chance and try to keep an open mind.
It's definitly worth it
