It is one of my top 5 shows of all time. The first season is really depressing (as you may imagine). It really gets excellent around Ep 3 or 4 (the one that follows the Pastor around). Season 2 goes in a slightly different direction (that a lot of people liked more - a bit more humor involved). Season 1 covered the entire book fwiw, and the book did not have a lot of humor in it.

For what it's worth, I consider the 8th episode of Season 2 (International Assassin) the second greatest episode in TV history (after Ozymandius from Breaking Bad).
