Evil (2019–2024)
7/10
This show is whack, but in a good way

This show is all over the place, in an interesting way. I mean the angels and demon background of each episode is sort of standard, but the show first is about the characters who are very interesting. Then secondly there is this non standard bigger connecting mystery that ties all the events of the episodes together and still isnt clear what is exactly going on.

Kristen, the main character is just so interesting. Such a strong and sexy female lead. Yet she also can show this gaping vulnerable weakness which literally puts everyone around her in jeopardy at times. Even the 4 daughters each have a uniqueness that individualizes them. In fact her interactions with her daughters is one of the best parts of the show.

I really was expecting an x files clone or something similar. It is NOT that. There are again some standard episodic elements, but they are basically there to drive the interaction of characters. If the xfiles had focused on the personal lives and interpersonal relationship of scully and mulder, then maybe u could draw some x file comparisons.

3rd season is about to start and I'm going to stick with it. You need a bigger sample size than 1 or 2 episodes to get hooked.
