The thing is with really well thought out high quality hour long dramas (think the wire).. the entire body makes up an amazing story. We are so used to watching sitcoms on tv, so we are trained to expect a complete standalone something out of 30 minutes or 1hr.
Most people that I've talked to said that they almost gave up on the wire after the first few episodes. I didn't have this issue, but I can understand it. You just have to be patient with these epic hour long dramas that strive to be more than a high production value themed soap opera (think true blood.)
