Seward my nikka, I hate it had to be him. I kept waiting for that phone to ring once last time...

This show is so fukkin good man. The acting, dialogue, story, scenery....beautiful. I wish it was more mainstream.

 

[Da Jungles]

Damn, that hanging

 

[Jermio]

It's Skinner or Reddikk.

 

[TheDarceKnight]

Damn, that hanging

That was brutal. Felt very very real. Capital Punishment is crazy man. He has saying that it wasn't that hard to act scared because they used a real gallows so he just got in the mind set that "if someone fukks up on this set I could die."

Really powerful scene.

He did a great job

In the moments before Seward connects with his son Adrian, I read where you said you actually blacked out filming the scene walking down the hall to Seward’s execution.

That does not mean I was being a good actor. I think it actually means I was being a bad actor. [Laughs] Yeah, I didn’t breathe. I just forgot to breathe. If you put yourself in the given circumstance of what’s happening — and it doesn’t take a lot to be able to do that, you just have to allow yourself — things happen that you wouldn’t have predicted. You can find a sense of humor some of the time, a way of flirting. It was interesting, I felt like [as Seward,] I wanted to touch every part of my psyche to say goodbye to it, including my sexuality.

And yet his final words were distinctly Seward. Were there any alternative lines? Did you talk with Veena about that line?
When it came up, I told her I loved it. We had been on the same website, Veena and I. She just told me this the other day because I said, “I go on this website,” which has a bunch of last words from people on death row. You see all the different things that people talk about. There was a quote on there that had inspired her, where somebody had talked about something not romantic and not accusatory. There are lots of different things that people typically do in films and TV at that moment, and I think what she gave me in that moment was the way that Ray would try to connect with Linden, by throwing out this thing that only the two of them knew. It was a way of connecting through this bureaucratic space of death.

They best not be thinking about not giving us a 4th season after the Se7en ending. Third season was how the show should've been from the start.

I don't like how it ended though, i wanted to see reddikks reaction to it being skinner,, his wifes reaction. fukk waiting til next season to see what happens to linden. it ended like a cliff hanger

 

[STAN JONES]

It's Skinner or Reddikk.

for some reason i been getting these two mixed up all season

I thought Lindens old partner was Reddikk and he was the one Holder beat up

I don't like how it ended though, i wanted to see reddikks reaction to it being skinner,, his wifes reaction. fukk waiting til next season to see what happens to linden. it ended like a cliff hanger

yea we didnt get any type of closure.

What happened to Cally and where is her body?

Did Callys mom jump off the bridge?

We didnt get to see Sewards named get cleared and everyone realizing they killed a innocent man

we didnt get to see his wifes,daughters,and other police officers reaction

Was he lying when he said its was more girls buried at the lakehouse and other places they wouldnt find?

Why did he break there ring fingers?

what happened to Liden? was she arrested? did her and Holder cover it up and try and plant a gun on him?

Overall the season was good but that was a terrible ending...the fact that the show most likely wont be back makes the ending even worse

 

[FlyRy]

AMC Cancels ‘The Killing’ (Again); Season 4 Not Happening

The Killing is going to be one of those head-scratcher cases (no pun) in pantheon of TV series. The murder-mysery procedural was a good draw for AMC’s budding lineup of critically-acclaimed TV lineup, but it left the fanbase in a very strange place by ending things on a season 1 finale cliffhanger, after a late-game decision to extend the series into a second season. That second season turned out to be quality viewing – but the sacrifice was a considerable portion of the audience, who didn’t re-invest in the mystery of “Who killed Rosie Larsen?” (4.7 million viewers for the season 1 premiere; 2.5 million for the season 2 premiere).

AMC then promptly canceled the The Killing – that is, until a joint deal with Netflix saved the show. With season 3 offering a brand new mystery, The Killing saw a slight uptick in interest (1.8 million for the season 3 premiere – up from the 1.4 million season 2 finale numbers), but clearly it never reclaimed the clout it initially had, and is now being put out to pasture for good.


Deadline dropped the exclusive that The Killing has been killed again (these jokes are going to keep coming), pointing to the fact that, overall, season 3 held consistent with the season 2 ratings lows. Reportedly, Fox TV Studios might shop the show around to another network, but there is little leverage or incentive for anyone else to give it yet another extension on its warranty. There’s also the fact that stars Mireille Enos (World War Z) and Joel Kinnaman (Robocop) are seeing career bumps right now, so the need (or pull) for them to return to a flailing show is not strong.
