I think most people, if you watch them enough, will have some sympathetic conduct or history, to varying degrees. The show might try to hard to express it, but I don't think the lack of one-dimensional characters is much of a criticism. I just read an excellent blog article about this sort of thing on the subject of Fruitvale Station (which I have to see as well).

I haven't seen the show yet, but I've heard generally good things. It's on my list of things to watch.
