What Shows Are You Watching?

[mredskins]

I am wondering if the whole series will be about this murder or they will eventually solve this one and move on

[JoeRedskin]

No - It's just about this one murder. 13 episodes - Each representing one day of the investigation (Just looked it up).

Deangelo Vickers... just the name cracks me up. Good episode, the shaving scene had me rollin'.

Yeah should be interesting to see who replaces Michael. Huge shoes to fill.

Haven't heard anything concrete. I've read that he is a possibility, then I read something else just recently that said he's not in the running.

I liked it but I also had a gut feeling there was more to that character in this than the first three eps had shown. Considering the character seemed to have no point within the narrative of the show. The stuff with him making his to the destination at the end of the bus line was great. One story tool they use is to jump back and forth between character arcs to keep the suspense up. It works well because they don't drag it out though. I am really loving this show.

I agree. It's very much like a novel in that respect.

I just hope that they don't throw one red herring after another because I feel like that could get old pretty quickly. Of course that isn't to say I don't want there to be twists and turns, because I DEFINITELY do, but I think if they eliminate one character after another from the lists of suspects each week it might make it too easy to figure out the killer in the end.

[ArtMonkDrillz]

Also, I need to try to avoid AMC's message boards because I was glancing through one last week and a poster very matter-of-factly said who the killer was. Obviously they could have been lying/guessing/bluffing/whatever and I hope the person is wrong but it's still annoying.

I thought I had read that the killer would be identified long before the season is over, that it wouldn't necessarily be a case of waiting until the final episode to find out who the killer is.

Um, maybe, in the article I read today on ew.com the producer didn't say one way or the other when (s)he was asked about that.

I'm fine with it either way if they handle it well. I just don't want to spend all this time learning about the suspects, the political story-line, etc only to find out towards the end it was some random drifter with no motive or something like that. That to me would be lazy writing.
