Temporal is right, Amos is really hard to appreciate without the background in the books. He is actually my favorite character by far,and I think the actor is doing a fantastic job at portraying him, but that's only beacsuse I "know" what's going on in his head.

It's a shame, and a bit of a failure on the part of the show runners, that you'd have to be a fan of the books to be a fan of the show.

honestly i love him in the show (possibly my favorite character) and i haven't read the books yet. i see a rich (not random) portrayal of someone who just doesn't have an intuitive sense of right and wrong but is struggling to do the right thing anyway. i found the dialog between him and the psychopathic scientist very telling.
Wow - not the sense I got from the series. I'll attempt the books, thanks :)
