Bill Simmons Hate-Watches The Killing Finale
Back in June, Bill Simmons got out his frustration with The Killing‘s er, controversial finale. Give it a read before the show returns with its (generally better-reviewed) Season 2 premiere on Sunday and relive the outrage:
If I invited you to my house for dinner tonight, you would come over and expect me to serve you food. Right?
Well, imagine we were having drinks in my living room for two hours. You’re looking at your watch. It’s 8:30. You don’t smell any food. You don’t say anything. Another half hour passes. You’re on your third drink. You’re getting legitimately hungry. You still don’t say anything. And then, a half hour later, I stand up as if I’m ready for you to leave. We have this exchange.
