I don't agree completely. I think the second season was better than the first but the first season had some awesome material too--it was just a little rougher round the edges. I was hooked after Season 1 and felt it was hitting its stride by the end of that season. I think it did suffer from being cut short a little but then they got to develop further in season 2. I don't think you'd find season 1 unbearable. And I do think it is much better to watch all of it (season 1 is very short!) as so much of season 2 builds on the emotional resonances built up over that first season. So I'd say it's more a matter of season 2 being where they could bring it all to fruition.
