Cigarette Company funded?

Sometimes it is hard to see what is happening with all of the cigarettes being waved in front of the camera - and the packets with a certain design.

I've managed through four episodes and have to say I don't care what happens to any of the characters and, other than 'Hector', nobody seems to realise that they are meant to be acting.

I won't ask if you think the show is good or bad. Please just tell me if the rest of the episodes are much the same. If so, I'll just skip it - or should i say, put it out.
