I'm surprised that this show hasn't gotten a lot more goon-fanfare.

The writing is exceptional, the characters are nuanced and interesting and the show keeps you on your toes without the use of cheap tricks and cliffhangers. I would've expected something of this quality from HBO, and I definitely get an almost *gasp* Deadwood vibe from the series so far.

Time will tell if the show can maintain it's quality, but I know I'm down for the ride.

In for a penny, in for a pound :)

Interesting I guess but exceptional really? There have been some great shows in the past few years I don't see this standing along side them.
