Lazy exposition is a plague in the industry, and is pretty prevalent in basically every broadcast show. CW and Lifetime shows tend to be the most offensive here. There are a ton of shows that let you discover the show along with the characters though; Breaking Bad, The Wire, Carnivale, etc. Those shows tend to be well regarded, and most people don't realize that it's just the lack of exposition making the people pay attention that they like.
