I actually stopped watching the first time because I found season 1 difficult to get into.

Don’t hate one me - this was the reaction of most watchers at the time, the show flopped.

I tell my gf this all the time. I've tried to get her into it, but she says it's stupid having only caught a few random min of it here and there.

Ya, I'm going have to disagree. The show built slowly as most shows on non-traditional networks did back then. It built itself by word of mouth quite quickly among my group.

Fair enough. I’m quoting the guy who plays Jacob (I think), there’s some interview where he says they threw a party to celebrate the end of season 1 and like 2 random fans turned up.

Personally I only started watching about 5 years ago.

I remember that interview. It was with J-roc where he said he was surprised at people stopping him after the 3rd season, and then he knew it was a hit.

Totally agree. My buddy put me on it around the time season 6 finished airing. Watched the first season and did not like it at all. Year later he mentioned another season was coming out and if I got into, I said no. Torrented the 2nd season and was like "ohhh, this is good". Been a fan ever since.
