Wendy Brandes Jewelry, The Killing and Entertainment Weekly

March 24, 2012 by WendyB

Luckily for me, the AMC show The Killing infuriated fans by ending its first season without resolving its central murder mystery. (The network said it regretted that it didn’t better manage viewer expectations.) Critics and viewers are looking for the second season — which starts on April 1 — to make up for the disappointment. Entertainment Weekly even devoted four pages to the show and the controversy in its March 30, 2012, issue. And … it looks like the magazine used a photo from a shoot done for the Dec. 16, 2011, issue, in which The Killing star Mireille Enos wore my Cleves swan ring.

Here’s the December photo with the Cleves ring …

… and here’s the March issue.

The only thing I don’t have? The answer to who murdered Rosie Larsen on The Killing!

      If you hadn’t seen this the first time around, I doubt I would have been so alert to it!

    Wow that show pissed me off big time! Misery porn and stupid red herrings spoiled what should have been an awesome series. I bet I still watch series 2. Love the Cleeves ring.

    I loved being angry at The Killing all the time, so I’ll watch again. Your ring is too gorgeous!

    Not familiar with the show but familiar with your Cleves Ring, my favorite is the 18k gold ring.
    BTW hope your little boy Henry is okay… these little four legged fur balls are our children afterall.

    I’ve heard so much online chatter, I’ve got to check out this show.

    Your rings are amazing. Although the rebel in me wants that skull pendant 😀
