Yeah, as others have said it really becomes the show it ends up being around episodes 5/6. The writing team is comprised of a lot of British sitcom writers so it’s kind of the same thing of how most sitcoms take a bit to find their groove.

They reshaped and expanded a lot of characters based on what the actors were bringing to them. For example, Roman is way more sadistic and cruel in the pilot than he is later in the show. He’s still a complicated person but seasons 2/3 Roman would never rip up a million dollar check in front of a Latino boy and his working class parents.
