The first episode, to me, showed a lot of room for growth. It started strong but there was room for improvement that I felt the show would find with each new episode.
However... Episode 2 went for the ridiculous. The cast is the only saving grace, and while I so much wanted to like the episode, the plot lines, lack of inventiveness and subtly helped to highlight the truly sub par writing. The dialogue works but oh, the ideas... Watching, it felt like the writers were like, "we have this great premise... uh oh, where do we go with it... oh well, this will do..."
Hopefully this was just a kink... Although an episode kink this early, I find worrisome.
