It is brilliant. Really really high quality.

Acting is fantastic, writing is fantastic, the plot is perfectly paced.

And I've only seen the first four episodes.

It doesn't take any prisoners though, if you're not paying attention, you going to miss stuff. And a lot of the dialog is delivered under a very heavy accent, I find I rewind it quite a bit to catch bits that I didn't quite hear properly first time.
