Top 20 New Shows of 2011: #18

#18: The Killing
I never loved this show as much as others do, finding the finale frustrating but hardly the most objectionable part of this show. I did like the tone and wanted to see it get better, and it did towards the end of the season. I think a second year will give it a chance to redefine itself and become top-notch AMC programming.
