I watched the premiere of The Killing on Sunday. It was spectacularly good. I had watched the original Killing on a UK download, and then tried to follow the US version but gave up. It got way too muddled and went on too long (Rosie Larson). It seems they got back on track this season. Acting is wonderful and plotline seems very interesting. Seattle is as gloomy as ever. I think I read it will be 10 episodes which is just about perfect. And they WILL solve the murders. Edited by weaver, Jun 4 2013, 06:44 AM.

Now I really am going crazy - I know my post's here weren't poof'd. I could have sworn I bumped up the thread on Sunday. There was just a comment by me and CCC - I was reminding folks the premier was on. Where'd it go? I'm so confused. Weaver - i had a hard choice, no DVR in the hotel room and AMC hasn't repeated the killing yet. I haven't seen it yet. |

I loved it too- I watched it twice on Sunday. I'm glad you guys liked it, too, because most of my friends hated it ad don't want to watch it any more. Love "Mad Men" and "The Killing"- great night of TV for me. This episode was for me exactly what I was hoping Season 1 would be. |

I wasn't going to watch it, especially with the two hour premiere. I figured if it seemed it was getting all muddled I'd turn it off. But instead, it kept me riveted to the screen. Both Holden and Linden (are those the names?) are so good. And the prisoner is excellent, he scares you through the screen. Holden is a much better actor than he appeared before (and he looks great too). In the UK version, they killed off the Holden character........and the Linden character was partially responsible. Glad they didn't do that here. |

I don't know if I would have watched if Holden was killed off. I thought he was the best part of last year too. He's terrific. Well to me. Can someone remind me about the other cop and Sarah and the picture? For some reason I remember the picture but don't know why. |

It's about a few cops who get seriously involved in cases and feel the pain of the victim and can't give up. They pursue the case which will take place throughout the season to solve the crime. Takes place in Seattle. Definitely worth a watch. Last time they took 2 seasons to solve the crime which was really annoying and there was too much background on the family. It's a dark mystery show. Start watching. Do you have in demand? If not do a search. I'm sure they'll be repeating the first 2 episodes which were shown simultaneously. Then you are caught up. |

If it is available, watch the very original Danish version, Forbrydelsen. There are three seasons. I only watched the first because of downloading problems. The first season is 20 episodes I think and the murder is solved. Acting is spectacular. Cinematography is wonderful, story gets a bit overwrought but it is saved by performances and ambience. The US version was based on the first season of Forbrydelsen. But US version changed a lot of stuff, including the killer. And US stretched it out over two seasons, and they introduced way too many red herrings. Danish version did as well, but they did it in a sleeker way. I only watched first year of US version, and it just was dragging way too much. Matter of fact, I might search for Forbrydelsen II and III. Edited by weaver, Jun 8 2013, 10:27 AM.

So what was the big reveal at the end of the season premiere. Linden found the location - but what? I had a hard time following. I think b/c my feed was fuzzy. No direct tv for the next week, so was running it off of AMC website plugged into my flat screen....had a hard time following the tail end. |

Yes she found the body dump from the picture the boy drew. He drew another picture like the first but with more detail. God we have two killing threads. I couldn't find this one. The other is under tv drama |

Me too, CCC. I wish they'd lighten up the scenes just a bit. Sometimes I can't tell what is happening it is so dark. All those working girls are good actresses. |
