I couldn't get that either. I felt like I kind of got what they were after in season one, which I enjoyed, but I stopped watching mid season 2 when I found myself thinking: Why am I even watching this? Gabriel Byrne was great in his role. I just was frustrated by the story; it felt sort of directionless.
Reading the Couch commentary, I've been wondering if I could skip to season 3 without finishing season 2.
