A great way to go deeper into The Killing is to check out AMCtv.com's exclusive interviews with members of the cast. This week, a look back at interviews with cast members who played members of the Larsen family. Below is a sampling of what the actors had to say about the challenges involved with playing their characters on the show -- click on their names to read the full interview.

"Is there anything not strange about playing a deceased character? It's interesting when you only have so much time that's in your hands to tell your part of the story. Working with the space that I had was really challenging." - Katie Findlay (Rosie Larsen, the murder victim)

"[To play Stan,] I consider the conflict and how do I humanize the conflict... That's what acting is, bringing in the unscripted part." - Brent Sexton (Stan Larsen, Rosie's father)

"Playing Mitch, having to be immersed in this grief on a mortal level, has been devastating... Some days it's about coming home and going over the next day's work and there is no break, and that's just a part of the job and you have to buckle up and cope with it." - Michelle Forbes (Mitch Larsen, Rosie's mother)

"There are some scenes that were definitely hard for me to shake after they said, "Cut." I had a few times where I needed a few seconds to gather myself before going in and starting again." - Jamie Anne Allman (Terry Marek, Rosie's aunt)

"The hardest part was the tears, which they had to put on after every take. They had a little bottle of fake makeup tears which they put near my eyes, and I'd have to keep them from dripping off before the take started." - Seth Isaac Johnson (Denny Larsen, Rosie's little brother)
