The Killing-New AMC Show

[J epworth]

Leaps and bounds this is the best season of the Killing. Completely rebooted the series IMO, last episode showed they aren't afraid to take risks either this season. Been my go to series this summer.

This season has been much better than the first two (although almost impossible to be as bad or worse than the first season).

They still go back to the red herrings a bit too much in my view and have a lot of what was the point of that? There is no way that happens moments but much better season.

A decently entertaining show to watch while the good shows are off.

I liked the first season a lot, except that the finale kind of did ruin the whole point of the season. The second season was a mess. This third season is very good and did a nice job of completely breaking the mold of the first couple seasons. I hope this show continues.

When Holder and Linden almost kissed in that scene my wife screamed at the TV 'NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO' - crisis averted.

Just finished the past episode. Gut churning stuff in the final ten minutes.

Great work by Saarsgard. He was the highlight of this season for me.

That might have been the most powerful episode of a show I've ever seen. Up there with a certain cops death in The Shield.

[Machiavelli]

That final scene sucked me in completely.

Season finale escalated quickly.

I have to watch this whole season again, without the week long breaks in between episodes. It's too bad the first and second seasons probably hurt the ratings for this year, because this deserves to be watched. Incredible show.

Strange ending - they crammed a whole season into one episode it seems.

No doubt, that final episode packed a lot of crap in a short period of time.

Overall was a better effort than season 1 and 2.

"No, no, no, no . . . . . ."

Loved that ending.

Did anyone watch that online footage that would sync with the episodes?

Can you follow season 3 without having see a second of season 2?

I completely bailed on the series after season 1.

Yes. It'll take you about ten minutes to figure out what happened in season 2 that's important for season three, which is basically nothing. Just watch a YouTube video of season 2 recap if you want, I didn't and I was fine, I stopped season 2 after 5 episodes.

[Canada 02]

just started watching season 1 because I heard Hugh Dillon is in it eventually. How is he and his character?

And it's canceled again

AMC said in a statement: "We have made the difficult decision not to move forward with a fourth season of The Killing. We want to thank our great partners at Fox Television Studios, creator Veena Sud, an extraordinary cast and the dedicated fans who watched."

Boooo. I rather liked the last season. Guess they couldn't win back the audience they lost when they decided to stretch the Rosie Larson Plot over two seasons.

[KTrain]

I enjoyed the last season the most as well. I think the ending to season one and subsequently, season two lost them a lot of viewers that just didn't come back for the 3rd.

Also, both actors are starting to show up in more stuff, so it could also be that they were due for a pay bump and the viewer numbers weren't there to justify it.

God dammit.
