I'm the opposite - I did two episodes and I'm loving it. Probably helps that I've read it, though. Kovacs and Miriam Bancroft don't fit my mental image, but that will happen. They've done a pretty decent job staying true to the source material so far, even with the subtle changes they've made. [Reply]
After the first episode my wife and I looked at each other and said, "That was weird." Then we decided to watch the next episode to see if we could start making sense of it. I'm liking it more and more now. [Reply]
I am about 4 1/2 episodes in and absolutely love it. The world building is excellent. The story is A+. I also think the acting has been great, and that comes from a guy that wasn't thrilled about the main character actor. He has sucked in just about everything I have seen him in but this role fits his acting. [Reply]
Through 8, really like it so far. I wasn't sure how it could possibly be translated from page to screen, but they've done about as good a job as I could imagine worldbuilding it. I've heard 9 and 10 were really good, so we'll see. [Reply]

Wife and I finished it last night. I think they pretty much nailed the casting all around. Each actor really fit the role they played. Some pretty big holes in the story, but I enjoyed it pretty damn well overall. Gonna go find the books now and read them. Have read other things by Morgan, so expected some odd shit to go down.
