Two years ago Sandra Oh followed in Tyne Daly’s footsteps by becoming the second woman to be recognized three times each in the Best Drama Actress and Best Drama Supporting Actress Emmy categories. She first racked up five supporting bids for ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy” between 2005 and 2009 and then received a trio of consecutive lead nominations for BBC America’s “Killing Eve” from 2018 to 2020. After a dozen total losses across five categories, she could now prevail on her 13th bid, which she has earned for her work on the fourth and final season of “Killing Eve.”

[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for Killing Eve Season 4, Episode 2 “Don’t Get Eaten.”] When the final season of Killing Eve began, Villanelle (Jodie Comer) was determined to prove she’d changed. She was baptized, and she even stopped herself from killing the vicar’s daughter in the premiere. By the end of Episode 2, well, we’re seeing a Villanelle we’re more used to. After a camping trip with the church group doesn’t go as planned, Villanelle killed the vicar, whom she hadn’t been able to turn everyone against, and his daughter, who had warmed up to her after the near-murder only to decide she was the devil. “[Villanelle] thinks it’s a blip that she can recover from,” head writer and executive producer Laura Neal tells TV Insider of that brutal act. Meanwhile, Eve (Sandra Oh) tracks down a member of the Twelve, Helene (Camille Cottin), and despite Yusuf’s (Robert Gilbert) strong...

During the “Killing Eve” Season 4 premiere, Villanelle (Jodie Comer) and Eve (Sandra Oh) find themselves face-to-face once more. Eve, a former MI6 desk jockey who moved into active duty while pursuing the assassin presently staring her down, is now working in private security. Villanelle, a killer for hire who grew bored with the gig before losing her taste for blood completely, is struggling to find joy in her evolving identity. Still at odds after their acrimonious split in 2020’s Season 3 finale, the testy couple’s reunion isn’t pretty, and they challenge each other’s progress (or lack thereof) in a curious pitch and catch: “If you really changed, you wouldn’t have come here,” Eve says, to which Villanelle replies, “If you’d really changed, you wouldn’t have let me.”
Regrettably, they’re both right. It’s indisputable how much both women have changed since they met, yet...
