Last year, AMC’s The Killing launched one of the most talked-about and fumed-over mysteries TV has seen in awhile, one which could be summed up in a question: “Who killed Rosie Larsen?” The new season of the acclaimed drama, premiering April 1, promises to reveal who murdered the artsy-dreamy-troubled Seattle teen, whose body was found stuffed in the trunk of a drowned car – plus quite a bit more. That’s the implicit message in the cable network’s new ad campaign for the show.

“When we thought about the second season, we wanted something moody and beautiful and vaguely unsettling,” says Linda Schupack, AMC’s head of marketing. “This is a cop drama unlike other cop dramas, so our approach to the key art was to be as distinctive as the show itself.” The second season will again showcase Detective Sarah Linden (Mireille Enos, who earned an Emmy nomination for her performance last season), whose emotionally-charged quest to get justice for Rosie is aided (and possibly being subverted) by her partner, Detective Stephen Holder (Joel Kinnaman). But the ad suggests there’s still more to learn about Rosie’s grieving parents (Emmy nominee Michelle Forbes as the mother; Brent Sexton as the father) and Seattle city councilman/mayoral candidate Darren Richmond (Billy Campbell), who in the season 1 cliffhanger was arrested (perhaps wrongly) for the titular crime. “All of these characters have secrets,” says Schupack. “The tagline ‘Be careful what you uncover’ speaks to the discovery of those secrets and what unravels from their exposure.”

Some viewers were unhappy that The Killing didn’t wrap up the Rosie Larsen murder mystery during its rookie campaign. For those who want to know the exact timetable for resolution – BEGIN SPOILER ALERT! — exec producer Veena Sud confirms to EW that an answer will come at the end of season 2. END SPOILER ALERT!

Who's excited!?!

WoozyFloozy

This show is a ****ing mess and the date of the premiere could not be more appropriate.

So excited for this. I saw the previews for it during The Walking Dead last night and got so excited

I believe it's premiering the same night as Mad Men. Do you think that will hurt the ratings? I hope they get over 2m at least.

Graduation

The finale for season one was a mess, but I loved the drama of the first season. I hope there's more interesting subplots this season and a lot less fake outs from the writers as to who the killer is, although I'm pretty sure it's Rosie's aunt and her boyfriend's dad who are behind it.

And AMC stays having the best television programs: I can't wait for the new season of Mad Men! And Breaking Bad in the summer!
