Killing Eve maybe outlasted its welcome a bit. The first season was phenomenal. The second one was even good. But I simply didn't find seasons three or four all that interesting. The plot became far too convoluted to follow. Early on though, when Phoebe Waller-Bridge led the writing staff, the show was funny and sharp and exciting and surprising. Villanelle and Eve were two of the best female drama characters on TV. Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer have great chemistry. They're both alluring but what is so subversive is the attraction between the deadly assassin and the obsessive agent. It's a bummer Sandra Oh never won an Emmy, but kooky Jodie Comer did land a victory for season 2. The finale episode did leave me unsatisfied. I felt like there was some explanatory closure missing. But I also didn't really want to watch more because the final season wasn't that enjoyable.
