Who's watching "The Killing" on AMC tonight?

Wait, it's one murder? One? The whole season? It's gonna take me a whole season to find out who killed this chick? A whole season to solve one murder? AMC grossly overestimates my attention span. I'm cut from the cloth where it takes one episode, maybe a two-parter to solve a murder.

Sorry AMC, I'm gonna take a pass. Call me when you sort out your Mad Men B.S.

So you'd rather have a cop show like the other 50 that are out there? Sigh, this is why one of the most popular shows on TV is Jersey Shore.

I hope your post was sarcastic.

Be careful what you say, both Miami and NY are cancelled. So that means Des Moines is on the way.

Not sarcastic. I'd just rather not watch a cop show at all. The hour long episodes bore me to tears. The prospect of a 13-hour long episode makes me want to lay my head on the railroad tracks Inception style.

Yes, I know, I'm clearly not in the key demo for the show, then. But I'm a fan of almost everything else AMC produces, so this is less my commentary on The Killing as a cop show and more of is as an AMC-produced show.

~edit~

p.s. Accuse me of being any way indicative of the generation that watches Jersey Shore and I will castrate you with a car key.

i'm in the same boat... hate EVERYTHING cop/crime-scene/law & order related that's on TV, but gave this a shot because it's an AMC show. i'm banking on the character development that AMC is known for trumping the fact that it's a cop show. it's working out so far... the pilot was interesting

There was this show I watched, where I thought "one case the whole season? no way", and well, that show ended up being "The Wire" which I believe is the best cop show EVER (and many others do). It worked out well for 5 seasons on HBO. Give this time, I think it'll be good.

So I finally got around to watching the premier of this and the second episode on DVR this weekend... solid show. Could be very interesting... I'm wondering how they are going to keep it running with just this one crime and keep it interesting. AMC is definitely on a roll.
