Yeah, I think that might be why it was kind of slept on by many average HBO viewers. Me, I'm Irish Roman Catholic, so it was like watching House of Cards to me. I loved it.
I also loved the musical choices. The Recondite song that was used as Lenny's "theme" was picked by someone who knows exactly how to balance out a score, and pick a song with the perfect amount of bite and tension to accompany that character. I can't imagine the music supervisor for that show not being an extreme badass.
