It's one of the key differences between England and US TV shows that MG and I have talked about, that US shows tend to do an information dump in the first episode hence first episodes here being universally bad. English shows are much more likely to get the story under way and then fill you in as you go along.
I was about to give you an example using Touching Evil but I don't know if you've ever seen the show so I won't.
