The Killing. From writer, executive producer and series showrunner Veena Sud (Cold Case), The Killing is based on the wildly successful Danish television series Forbrydelsen and tells the story of the murder of a young girl in Seattle and the subsequent police investigation. Season one will consist of thirteen one-hour episodes, each covering 1 day of the murder investigation.
The Killing ties together three distinct stories around a single murder including the detectives assigned to the case, the victim's grieving family, and the suspects. Set in Seattle, the story also explores local politics as it follows politicians connected to the case. As the series unfolds, it becomes clear that there are no accidents; everyone has a secret, and while the characters think they've moved on, their past isn't done with them.
not too wild about that trailer up above, but will give the premiere a go. gotta fill that pretty little liars sized hole in my heart with something i suppose
Love the mood and the feel of it. (nh, if necessary)
Seattle is my favorite city, I hope they showcase as much of it as possible.
The Comedy Quadaffi cop creeps me the fuck out though.
Nobody calls Mercer Island (Rich suburb v. close to Seattle) "The Island".
Rich kids, even in fits of irony do not party in Tukwila.
The Blue Moon (or at least the most famous one is 5 minutes from where I work and not in Tukwila).
It will be amusing if they pretend like one of the mayoral candidates is Republican, 'cause they don't run for Mayor in Seattle (at least not as meaningful threats).
Beyond that small stuff- I did like how much of the city they showed. Waiting to see my neighborhood/office building eventually
I was all set to watch this today and it's nowhere to be found on my DVR. Checking the log on my DVR, it said "unable to record (error 7)." No idea what that is. Replay is Thursday night, so I'll just wait until then.
i like it.
i want to fuck the ugly gingercop cause shes sexy as hell.
i want to punch my posses on wiggerway in the fucking face until he finds the cage.
i want to see the mayorial candidate's flame's tits.
a pretend O face.
i want to cry my fucking eyes out thinking about what if that was my 18 year old. i would have fucking killed myself.
I just watched it. I think it's pretty dope. At first, whig cop bothered me but I liked him by the end of the episode.
As for the killer, my money is on Brandon Sexton III for no other reason than that looks like a dude who would kill his friends daughter.
Solid follow-up. Surprised how gripping the case is considering they really haven't given us much reason at all to give a shit about the girl who died.
Definitely has a bit of Twin Peaks to it all.

I'm guessing all the family gut wrenching realistic type sorrow is supposed to make us give a fuck about the dead chick. I mean they are really playing on the emotion strings by focusing on the family's everyday dealings with the loss and trying to make it personal with all that. But yeah, thats more of giving a fuck about the fam but not the whore so yeah you're right.
Shows been decent so far, I'll keep checking.
The fiend looking detective started off creepy but likable at this point. I still don't like the ginger bitch detective, but they did kind of show that she has tits this episode, so thats a plus. Her husband seems creepish too, though. Fuckin seattle.

Word. I'm liking this show a lot. I am curious how they will drag it out for 13 episodes and if a second season would be possible.
Imo, it's way better than walking dead.

Nah, not to me so far. I am curious to know what they would do for a second season though.

Same here. Third season of the Danish version starts soon, although I've avoided reading much more about it. As for tits, the Mormon ginge was pregnant while filming, so they should be getting bigger.
Im enjoying it quite a bit. Almost shut it off in the first half hour of the first episode because everyone seemed a bit too "norweggian" but glad I stuck it out.
