When they saved it I was so happy I promised myself I'm not going to complain, I'll just enjoy and keep my fingers crossed that it's great and there will be more. But the waiting, that's a good kind of complaining, the closer to the premiere we get I'm become more impatient, I just want them all back on my screen. I wonder how it's going to be without Rosie and her family and Richmond.
I think the show will only be bettered by the absence of the Larsens and even Richmond and Gwen. When the show was saved and they said there would be no Larsen family, that made perfect sense to me. And for the purposes of this show, their purpose and their story is over. When they said there would be no Richmond, I had to scratch my head at that one because of all the corruption, especially there at the end. But I also felt like without him gone it would only feel like a continuation of the Larsen case in a sense. So I'm pretty stoked about the fact that the only through line we'll be getting in season 3 is Linden, Holder, and possibly their respective families (even though I haven't heard anything about that either.)
I wouldn't be opposed to a tension-filled cameo by either the Larsen or Richmond camp though.
Oh, I absolutely agree with you, the Larsen story is over and it wouldn't make much sense for them to appear in the new season and I'm excited to see new characters and relationships. What I was trying to say is, we got so used to them, they were an integral part of the world the show created (not like in procedurals when case takes one episode and the characters are never mentioned again) and on some level I'm gonna miss them, especially Rosie who was one of my favorite characters even though we got to see so little of her. So I wonder what this new The Killing is going to be, it's a little bit like starting a new show.I'd really like to see more of Richmond. I don't think his story is really over and a guest appearance in two or three eps would be perfect.
I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN ABOUT ROSIE! I had so many feelings about her that I had to write fic AND make a fanmix, lol. Loved her so much. Which is a true testament to how brilliant this show is. How does a show make you love a character who has never been on screen alive? It just BLOWS MY MIND.
