"The Killing" Gets a Second Season from AMC
by Maureen Ryan
posted Jun 13th 2011

AMC has renewed "The Killing", which is something of a surprise.

The Deadline post that broke the news takes note of the critical acclaim the drama has received, but in recent weeks that initially positive critical reception has largely drained away as the show has squandered its momentum and meandered through a series of hit-or-miss subplots.

However "The Killing" had one thing going for it that the late, lamented "Rubicon" did not -- a fairly steady audience that stuck with the show.

I've confirmed that executive producer and showrunner Veena Sud will be back for the show's second season, and as for season 2's setting and cast, those details have yet to be worked out at this point.

That's good to hear. I really like Linden & Holder as a team.
