None of the characters are likable or have any/many redeeming qualities, which is... different. I haven't decided if it's different-good, or different-bad. The main storyline of the show is interesting and unique, although all the cancer stuff is depressing. There is occasional excitement, but a lot of overly-long scenes that just sort of linger on the characters' awkwardness.
I do like how the opening scenes of each episode are usually bizarre. Favorite so far was the ominous Heisenberg drug ballad with the cheesy video effects:
