    The Killing (AMC)

    anyone else watch this last night? i forgot it was even going to be on, gf saw it on the guide about an hour before saying "didn't you want to see this?" and half asleep i watched it. in my opinion it was awesome, and feels like something great to use up time while i wait for the walking dead season 2. i'm interested in seeing how they're going to stretch it to 13 episodes, because if they do it well i think it'll be great. anyone catch the original Danish version?

    I watched it and enjoyed it. Set my DVR for a season pass, planning on continuing to watch it. I enjoy season long story arcs for plots or mysteries, so the premise of this show caught my attention. I liked all the references to places I'm familiar with in Seattle; it's too bad it's not actually filmed there.

    The constant rain during a murder investigation reminded me of Heavy Rain, which is a very good thing to be reminiscent of.

    Is there any other channel worth watching more than AMC? I think not. I enjoyed it tremendously.

    haha Byrd, the exact with me. i kept thinking about Heavy Rain and then saying to myself, that's not exactly a bad thing.

    i'm glad a few other people liked it, not a single one of my friends saw the premiere but i'm telling them all they need to.

    HBO?

    And also lol @ AMC shows being dark all of a sudden.

    AMC shows have been pretty grim from Mad Men onwards, its just gotten less and less subtle?

    Just checked metacritic and it has an 85 which is pretty damn good so hopefully I like it.

    Rubicon was good, Prisoner remake was a bit uneven.

    I think he means, this + Walking Dead really.

    In all honesty the next AMC show looks best tbh.

    Period drama set in the Old West.

    What the fuck. Rubicon was good. It's so Three Days of the Condor. I'm completely hooked on it and can't wait to see what happens in season 2.

    The Prisoner remake was doomed to fail simply for the fact that you can't recreate the awesomeness of the original.

    You're going to be waiting forever as it got cancelled right as Walking Dead was renewed

    What the hell, lol. I admire you for having 4 solid seasons of Mad Men to watch all at once.
