In its first season, creators Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson expertly dole out pieces of a puzzle that creates the framework for a dark thriller with a ribbon of macabre humor strung throughout, harkening back to the watercooler show days of "Twin Peaks" and "Lost."

I think that the comedy in the show we've always tried to pull from the darkness, and there's actually a lot of macabre humor in the darkest moments.

And it's suddenly this really macabre humor.
