This, I'm not sure, there is a lot of story, but you're expected to know the background of the characters and instantly know what's going on in their lives and the story as a whole. I think the pilot perhaps could have been done a little better, but the last 10 minutes more than made up for it and has kept me hooked for the second episode. With any luck this will really set up the season for me to keep watching it.
awesome program, been desperately binge watching this to catch-up
