Hell on Wheels

So what happens? Do you turn the TV off after Walking Dead or do you keep it on and watch Hell on Wheels like I do?
I was really excited about Hell on Wheels when they first announced it mainly because I love Civil War shit, I love westerns, and the story of the American railroad is cool. I was hoping for another Deadwood, but with that AMC Mad Men level of awesome period presentation. I was excited for Victorian fashion with a generous helping of mud mixed with history and blood which is pretty much exactly what I got.
So the show is gorgeous to watch right down to the little details. I can't get enough. I want to walk around on the set and touch everything.
I'm not sure about the story though. All of the characters are thoroughly unlovable.
Anyone else watching it for anything but the preview part of the next episode of Walking Dead?
