I really liked it. I thought the first 30 minutes was a snooze-fest, although I will admit I was crawling around on the floor looking for my last Epzicom during most of that part. But That's one bad-ass couple. and I love how they had an FBI agent move in next door.

Do you think they will end up defecting?

Thanks for weighing in.  I actually didn't watch the premiere.  Since I know FX will replay it to death before the next ep, I'll catch the replay.  So, the first portion must be some boring backstory?

You know I found it very hard to follow, seems like they just jump right into it. The backstory is sprinkled throughout the rest of the hour, and is pretty cool.
