This is a fair take. I remember watching it and being mostly confused until I got past the halfway point or so. That being said, if the first half's plot threads that it waves at you aren't piquing your interest, then the payoff when things get explained later probably isn't going to be terribly satisfying.

I always think it's like episodes 8 when things "get real" in the show, which would still be a long time, but I looked it up and it is ep 12. It definitely does not meet the 3 episode rule for watching.
