Four seasons for this piece of crap and Deadwood only gets 3???

What's the over/under on red herring suspects in 6 espisodes?

My guess is because it is the last season they will try and cram 3 or 4 in each episode and then it will turn out that Rosie Larsen is the killer!

I like it. 6 episodes is respectable and a nice way to finish off the series.

How on earth would Linden be allowed to remain a cop after how the last season ended?!?

Last season actually was pretty decent, so nice to give this a proper ending.

I think it improved over the last season. I liked the characters. I am happy to hear that it's getting a proper end. Not sure how I'd like it to see or what would be fitting, but I will be watching.

The vast majority of people who watched the show panned it ... because it's a piece of crap.

The only thing going for this show is Holder - Linden is about the worse actress in the world. The ending of last season was bogus, Linden unbelievable and there was a problem with the time space continuum given the distance to the cabin. She should have turned the gun on the audience.

It really sucks that great shows like Boss get cancelled, while this piece of crap gets resurrected not once, but twice!

I think it's actually a really good show. Yes, Mireille Enos is a pretty one-dimensional actress, but the dimension fits the mood of the show - and mood is what this show is all about. The red herrings do get pretty ridiculous at times, almost like the plot is trying to outsmart itself and gets lost in the process, but at the end of the day it is entertaining TV that is more interesting than suspenseful or gripping. I have watched every season and will be glad to see it come back for a proper ending.

As long as Holder is on it - the show is good enough to watch.

I agree, just got into this show and watched the first 2 seasons in a couple of weeks. I love it.

The Killing has once again been revived, this time by Netflix.

Edit - whoops. My bad, I see that was already discussed. *shame*

If you aren't watching the final season, you are missing out. I'm on episode 5 of 6. Just awesome television.

Began the first season this week, on about episode 6 or 7.

The scenes where the family is grieving are pretty well done. Having been through something like that, I don't think there's ever been a TV show that got it so right, and I think that's what hooked me. Otherwise it seems like just another cop drama and they've never really been my cup of tea.

On the first season? Do yourself a favour and stop now. Absolute garbage season.

I thought the last 6 episodes were very well done. I love the final 'wrap up' between Holden and Linden. I thought that Netflix ended it well- f-bombs and all. I will just miss hottie holden in the future
