This is a smart show. It has nice personalities, but doesn't get lost in the personality conflicts. It allows the outside stories of personal failing, corruption, miscommunication, parenting and politics to form an important part of the story.
The story is about humans being humans in a complex world with conflicting interests. The dialog is smart, the politics of the stories interesting and current, the personalities interesting, the dialog fills the time and is smart. The show does not devolve to shouting and missed And, the continuing story limps along behind the episodes just enough to keep people interested.
Most shows like this do not make it past the first season. It is a pleasant surprise that this one is still going.
