This show is not only watchable, it has the potential to be addictive. It revolves around basic human desires, values and complexities. The plot is good and expanding. The script is well-written, as expected from HBO. Whether it will evolve to be a great show remains to be seen. To those who were disappointed by the first impression they got from the show, remember that until season 4 of The Wire it was widely considered a flop. Look what evolved to be today. Give it a shot and be patient.
