Carnivàle

Just watched episodes 7 and 8 and if I wasn't really hooked before, I'm now.
I think part of what makes this series a cut above the rest is the way it manages to combine a story for the episode, character development and metaplot (Ben's and Brother Justin's backgrounds) into one nice whole. Nothing feels tagged on or superfluous.

Are you mindbogglingly confused yet?

Isn't it GREAT?!

More overwhelmed with information rather than confused but yes.

so not overwhelmed with the multitude of questions that each episode raises and rarely answers yet? ;)

That's what I meant, yes. Too early in the morning...
