I liked watching the characters and storyline evolve over the years when it took place, but a lot of what they were talking about in the office went over my head because of the jargon they use. Also, if you're looking for suspense, don't hold you're breath. There's barely any, so it doesn't leave the viewer in anticipation of what's going to happen on the next episode. It is a cerebral show, however so that part I give it credit for.
