I think, because of the heritage, people are more likely to stick around and give the show a chance later on, particularly when the second season (or whatever it is) gets announced. I expect a good number of folk to marathon the first season at that time. That probably won't help that much in the week-to-week discussion for now, though.
And yes, I honestly do expect the discussion to pick up a little bit once the nagging by game players calms down a bit. It is a bit of a deterrent to me as well.
