For those who are going to get into the show for the first time remember to be patient. The show, as many people have said over the years, is like a novel. It keeps building but it takes time before it really grabs you. Don't get frustrated if things feel too slow at first or if you are not exactly sure who all the characters are or what their purposes are. In the end it will all come together and make sense but you have to stick with it through those first few episodes even if you don't initially find them to your liking.
