I certainly understand that Life Happens. I had the full series run on DVD for a couple years (mega-sale at Best Buy, similar to your purchase at Costco) before cracking the shrinkwrap on 'em (though that was for re-watching, not first-time viewing). And my "to read" pile of books always gets bigger, never smaller.
But really, you MUST figure out some way to extract the time in your busy lives to sit down and watch it. It's that good, really it is. (Season 1 has its slow moments and false starts; bear with it, and you start getting your reward when groundwork laid in Season 1 starts bearing fruit in Season 2.)
Do you have the pilot movie "The Gathering"? It contains some important backstory/mystery stuff which gets reviewed via flashbacks and suchlike during Season 1 eps, but I think it makes more sense in its original context.
