We got plenty of that crap in the season finale thread last year. And frankly, I was sick of it. If your going to watch this season and want to chime in and add some constructive comments/criticism, then that's cool. I have no qualms with that. If your not going to watch and have nothing worthwhile to say, watch something else. Mad Men and Game of Thrones are also on. ** It's a new season and I'm looking forward to seeing how it all plays out. |

Preview with the cast and creators about what to expect in season 2. |
Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
Looking forward to this.

Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
This will be my first episode of the show. Based on the way the internet was whining like little bitches about the season one finale, I'm assuming that the mystery hasn't been solved yet, so I can easily jump into this show with a clean slate.

Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
That's brave. I wouldn't personally watch this without seeing Season 1 first. Maybe DVR it until you're caught up and go run out and rent the DVD's or something?

Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
I'll give it a shot. I loved the pilot (and hated the ending of last season) so I guess I want to watch it and see if the payout is worth all the bullshit from the end of season 1.
|
Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
I'm watching. Didn't think the ending of season 1 was bad at all. Would have been nice to have it all wrapped up, but it didn't, so what? bring on season 2.

Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
I liked the first season, it had some very tense moments. Looking forward to seeing what happens with Holder this season (who is one of the better, more interesting characters in any TV show, in my opinion).

Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
How appropriate that this show is returning on April Fool's Day...
With that out of the way, I am going to try and have an open mind about the second season. I enjoyed most of the first season; I thought the production value was good and the acting was usually top-notch, but I tired of the repetitive "gotcha moments" and thought the finale was a HUGE letdown. That said, I still want to know who killed Rosie and while I think they ruined the Holder character (my favorite on the show), I want to see where they take him this season. |
Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
I never watched the show but is the reason people didn't like the season finale was because the case was not solved? I find that an odd reason to hate on it. It seems more realistic as real life cases don't get solved quickly like other shows tend to wrap things up in one episode like Law and Order.

I personally don't care, but I can see where people were pissed off about it. |

Who the fuck are you to tell people what to post? Sorry, but fanbois make me want to puke. Nothing is perfect and we are here to discuss both the good and the bad. I am sure the Disney forums would appreciate your rainbow.

Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
I'm all in for Season 2. I don't give a shit that they didn't solve it in Season 1.
Still a good show. Enjoy the journey. |

If you see a post you don't like contact a moderator. The show sucks, Veena Sud sucks, I hated the season finale and I don't plan on watching. I don't give a shit about the show anymore. AMC and the producers are liars. That is the type of shit I'm talking about that annoys the fuck out of me and IMO would be regarded is useless commentary and derails interesting thoughts/theories etc. I never said anything about not being able to discuss the episode intelligently and pointing out shit that you thought didn't work, or sucked. I'm no Disney rainbows with sprinkles on top fan boy and everything is wonderful as you say. :lol: I mean shit, this is a dark ass show and I know it's not going to please everybody. |

They wasted alot of time focusing on a character named Bennett as the primary suspect last season and that turned out to be a dead end. And then with the finale, fingers went to another character named Darren Richmond (Billy Campbell), and that was yet another Red Herring after Sarah discovered the fake photos from Holder. People were really frustrated and annoyed. Alan Sepinwall on the entertainment blog Hitfix.com hated the finale and vowed to never watch the show again. But, he has since calmed down and reviewed the 2 episodes and gave it a C+. He said it's improved and the acting is still good, but the show is still flawed. |
Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
Sepinwall ravaged the finale last year on his and Daniel fienberg's podcast, very entertaining listen

Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
Will give this a second shot.
My issue wasn't so much the lack of an ending but the contrived twist and cliffhanger at the end. You expect some sort of cliffhanger and some twists, but the last show was weak and poorly setup and didn't fit in logically... Maybe they'll straighten it out in the first few shows of this season? Hopefully the show doesn't continue in the mode of red herring.... detectives clear that person after a show or two... end of show = new red herring.... rinse... repeat.... EDIT: Oh and the endless need for "grief porn"... while I get they are trying to be realistic, when they do too much of it, it loses it's effect. |
Re: The Killing -- 2 Hour Season Premiere -- "Reflections/My Lucky Day" -- 4/01/12
Not sure if this is spoiler territory or not, but Entertainment Weekly (and a few other media outlets) have already confirmed that the killer
Spoiler:
Which I think is probably a horrible idea considering the backlash this show is already getting. |
