The ...Hmmm, I disagree with most of these posters. The fact that their was not a reconciliation at the end of the first season, just made me ancy in anticipation. From research, I know the storyline is not a complete duplicate of the origianl Danish series, Forbrydelsen, and also realize that it can't be an exact duplicate in order to match it up to an American audience. I like the fact that it gives a 360 degree view of the effects of one murder, seeing it through the thoughts and actions of the victim, parents, family, friends, aquaintances, and detectives. It is character driven, like a good book, which makes it compelling to watch.<br /><br />I will watch the Danish version when I am finished with this one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-68793507630929279382011-06-21T10:27:59.971-04:002011-06-21T10:27:59.971-04:00I agree with the others.

I can't help but wonder if the show hadn't been renewed for season if the murderer would have been more definitive. Would the show would have ended prior to her getting the phone call on the plane? Did they film two different endings? I for one would have liked for the next season to have been about a new murder. I certainly hope this doesn't turn into another "Twin Peaks." While I enjoyed "Twin Peaks" when it was on I got a little tired of the continual question "Who Killed Laura Palmer?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-62876532368029211612011-06-21T08:16:02.428-04:002011-06-21T08:16:02.428-04:00I was really, really PO'd at the ending!

The thing that "hooked" me about "The Killing" was the idea that we'd see a murder investigation through to the end and find out who killed the victim at the conclusion of the season. Even when I knew the series had been renewed, I assumed we'd start with a new case. The ending of this season felt like a cheat to me, and in fact I thought "this is turning into 'Twin Peaks'!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-88795843936378752242011-06-20T19:55:55.236-04:002011-06-20T19:55:55.236-04:00In the beginning I thought the idea of a multi epi...In the beginning I thought the idea of a multi episode one story mystery was a different idea but I never expected to be stuck with a cliff hanger finale- I was expecting to see things wrapped up and over. I will have lost interest by the time they decide to come back. Just a bad idea to treat the audience in this way. I'm done and especially so now that I know who really did it. It was all a slick manipulation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285327832119375741.post-83234967062981016102011-06-20T09:31:44.251-04:002011-06-20T09:31:44.251-04:00I'm not a big fan of cliff-hanger season final...I'm not a big fan of cliff-hanger season finales. They seem like a ploy to get viewers back for the next season and I wish they would go away. I think one season was long enough to resolve this case and I don't see the point of dragging it out. The thing with Holder was interesting but you gotta wonder how he thought he would get away with it. And the thing with Richmond and Belko all too predictable. I was really, really annoyed by the endingMackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05555318160638307655noreply@blogger.com
