Official The Killing Thread (Warning: Potential Spoilers)

[JoeRedskin]

Well, the show has never been just about solving the crime. It billed itself as showing how the crime effected those involved with it. To that extent, substantial backstory on the detectives involved was to be expected.

But otherwise I agree, the first few episodes were absolutely gripping. These last couple have been okay to good. It has only two left and we don't have a real lead. Am wondering how they will handle it. I hope they wrap it up and don't try to stretch it out into another season - pretty sure that is the plan.

At this point is the political subplot even relevant?

Seems to me there are a lot things just floating around (Are we done with Regi and the boyfriend? Does Stan rot in jail? What about the skater tweeks from early on are they done and done?). A lot of characters seem to just get tossed aside and forgotten.

Two more episodes - I am betting it is the Richards campaign assistant (I think his name is James - the short guy).
