The Killing seems to be the luckiest TV show around.
Months after AMC cancelled the crime drama for a second time, Netflix has come to the rescue and picked The Killing up for a fourth and final season of six episodes. Stars Mireille Enos and Joel Kinnaman are on board, as is showrunner Veena Sud. AMC is not connected with the new deal.
In a statement, Cindy Holland, vice president of original content for Netflix said, “The rich, serialized storytelling in The Killing thrives on Netflix, and we believe that it is only fitting to give Sarah Linden and Stephen Holder a proper send off… We are looking forward to offering fans — both existing and new — a series that we know is perfectly suited for on-demand viewing.”
What do you think? Are you glad to hear that The Killing has been revived for a second time or were you fine with it being cancelled? Will you be watching season four?

you should bring the killing back for another season good show how about a season five
Excellent move by Netflix great show, great cast and I look forward to watching
Some of the best TV I have seen. Wife & I loved the show and characters we will miss it!
This series started out so dark and twisted and it kept it up, week after week; so much so that I was not sure I wanted to continue watching it. But, I ultimately got pulled into the lives, good and bad habits of the characters and the family interactions; that I ended up being hooked on it. I want it to go on and develop more scrips and themes, after the earlier ones get solved. I love all the characters and their lives a lot.
I will get netflix just soI can see the last episodes of this very gritty true to life crime drama, sucks that AMC wont get in on the deal, They have made it neccessary for me to get netflix and now I have no reason to watch AMC anymore.
I was so happy to see that there were more episodes added even if on Netflix. I love the show! I may watch the entire 4 season again. I have 3 more episodes to go, I dread the end to come.
Thanks Netflix for taking over!

I REALLY GOT INTO THESE TWO CHARACTERS SARAH AND HOLDER-VERY UNIQUE -THE SUSPENSE WAS SOMETIMES UNBEARABLE UNTIL THE NEXT EPISODE AIRED-I AM SO ECSTATIC IT IS BACK ON-THE FACT THAT THE NETWORK IS CONTINUING THE PROGRAM EVEN THOUGH THEY SAY FOR A FINALE-TELLS ME IT HAS A GREAT NUMBER OF FANS
It’s usually odd for a different outlet to take over a network’s established show for just one final season. I think FX did the same thing with the comedy series “Wilfred”, moving its fourth and final season to FXX.
excellent series. Well-written, well-acted, and well -directed. Not well-advertised! Wish it were renewed for a fifth season. So much better than these sappy reality shows.
cant wait wish it was a full season great show
I love this series and am excited to see 6 episodes but would love it if we could have this series for a couple of years. It’s fantastic. I love it!!!

I’m just thrilled The Killing will be aired ANYWHERE!!! As a matter of fact, I’m keeping my Netflix subscription so I can watch it (along w/House of Cards – which debuted in Feb. & Hemlock Grove – that I hope is back on SOON!)
Good on ya’ Netflix. You’re the future:))) AMC’s loss is your gain!!!
Thank you
Annie
FANTASTIC! Suggestion: fire the canceler; give a raise to the uncanceler. Linden an Holder are the best team I’ve seen on tv in ages. Thanks Net Flix, you’re becoming my favorite source of entertainment!
Thank you thank you thank you. I absolutely love this series
Thank god! The way they ended season 3 made me crazy. I could not believe AMC was just going to leave the fans hanging like that…
