I've only seen the first two eps but it hasn't been as good as I hoped. I feel they haven't quite recaptured the original atmosphere yet, although there were signs of it in Ep2.
The other issue is that the short run of only 6 episodes means everything is rushed. But even if they get a proper season this could still be a problem because these days a "full" season tends to be only 12 episodes, not 24 or so like they used to. The build up of the conspiracy mythology works best when done gradually, and then you can forgive the occasional silly episode (I'm aware of the title of Ep 3 so I can imagine what you're taking about!)
I can only hope that these 6 episodes are an attempt to gauge whether there's sufficient interest for a proper return. I'm not sure though, and of course both actors are tied to other shows for the time being.
I want to believe!
