The Mrs. and I have been watching Killing Eve for a few weeks now, and tonight we finished the fourth and final season.
Overall, the show was pretty good. How could it not be? It features an assassin, a woman who slowly unravels alongside her, MI6, the KGB, and a plot that takes you all over the world.
Eve is working with MI6 to track the assassin and those pulling the strings, but things don’t go quite as planned.
I won’t drop any details or spoilers, but even though the show had a proper ending, unlike so many that get canceled and leave viewers hanging, it still felt rushed and, at times, a bit cheesy. Both my wife and I were disappointed by how it wrapped up. No spoilers here, though.
I’m planning to read the book to see if it offers a different perspective or ending. It will have to be added to the queue since I’m still reading Wrecker by Carl Hiaasen. I usually prefer to read books before watching their movies or series, but sometimes I don’t realize a show is based on a book until much later. By that point I’m already committed, so I read the book afterward.
Still, despite what I consider a less satisfying ending, Killing Eve is a solid series and definitely worth checking out.
