Exactly. I remember watching misfits for the first time. I didn't really like it at all until episode 4 or 5. After that I really really enjoyed the slow.

I've had a similar experience with books as well. The first time I started reading the Dresden Files, I though book one was kind of stupid, put it down and didn't come back to it for a while. Later on I went back and decided to give it another try, I thought it was OK and read on a bit. Once I hit book three, I was hooked. I binge read right though book 12 in the series (the latest one at the time) in about two weeks.

The Wire is the same way. Most I've talked to who lost interest never made it more than three or four episodes in which you generally need to the 5th or 6th episodes to really get a feel for the characters.

Then there's shows like Arrow where you spend almost half the first season not giving a fuck for the pay off to really start hitting in the last half to third of the season and just solid after that mostly.

Or Agents of Shield where it didn't really go off until it synced the Captain America 2 towards the latter half of the season.
