Why did they remake the Danish mini series The Killing?

And why is everyone so significantly younger than in the original? Incidentally, Prime Suspect fans should check the original (there is a version with English subtitles that the BBC just finished broadcasting floating around in the corners of the “torrential” internet). There hasn’t been a leading female detective as interesting on TV since Hellen Mirren’s character.


For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you.  Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
