I would watch from the beginning.

You have to get to know the characters.

It's much more character driven than case driven (since it's a law show).

I got drawn in because of my media and political science background because the first season partially deals with the fallout from a scandal involving a public official.

I stayed because I fell in love with the writing and dynamics of the somewhat intricate plotting.

You can see where CBS tinkered with the show a bit in Season 3 - but the writing still shines.
