I saw you tagged killing eve in the 'worst series finale' poll - how *does* it end? I watched the first two seasons and then lost interest. (also I hope you're having a good day!)
first of all thank you i am and i hope you are too!!
but alright here we go ⚠️⚠️ MAJOR SPOILER WARNING MAJOR SPOILER WARNING ⚠️⚠️ for anyone who does want to watch for themselves bc tbh the first few seasons are excellent but i honestly don't know if i can recommend them anymore in good faith after knowing where it all ends up
so okay. you know how the whole crux of the show is this intense psychosexual relationship between eve and villanelle. and how there's an obvious romantic tension between them. well from what i remember (cause it's been a while) they started actually working together in season 3, but then because they realized they make each other worse they had this whole dramatic moment where they walked away from each other on a bridge and weren't supposed to look back but of course they both did turn around at the last second and then the season ends.
flash forward to season 4 and you can tell time has passed and they aren't working together and it's implied there was some big falling out and we have no idea what it is. eve is just annoyed and done with villanelle and villanelle is like trying to prove she's not a bad person and goes to church and stuff and actually that plot was extremely hilarious and she imagined up a drag jesus version of herself for advice and they were acting like exes and it was playing into the whole comedic surrealism aspect of the show really well. but after the first few episodes it just kinda fell apart like i just remember feeling lost all season and not understanding where we were going and this is definitely due to the changing showrunners (they should have just kept pwb for the whole thing!!!!) but they kept adding new characters out of nowhere, some of which were really well done but then we were following plots that were thrown in randomly and it was just a bit of a mess.
but eventually by the LITERAL SERIES FINALE eve and villanelle have both given in to the fact that they enjoy being in each other's company as the worst versions of themselves (which is honestly such a fun direction to go that i really enjoyed especially for a sapphic pairing). and after they've been apart for a vast majority of the season finally they have this good banter going and it's all domestic and then there's a scene where they're walking down an empty road together and this romantic music comes in. and they finally literally actually have The Moment. like they had kissed before in the previous season but not in an explicitly romantic way, they were physically fighting each other on a public bus and eve kissed villanelle to throw her off before headbutting her (SO GRIDDLEHARK OF THEM THAT SCENE IS ACTUALLY SO GOOD) anyways. villanelle kisses eve on the cheek and then eve stares at her and grabs her and they make out for a solid FORTY-FIVE SECONDS. it was so intense and they're kissing as they're stumbling down the road and they run back to the camper van they were travelling in and it's for sure implied that they have sex in there. so everyone was like oh my fucking god they actually did it. like this is where the show was always going, it's a whole I Can Make You Worse thing where both people were like "fuck it i'll be worse then" and gave in to the tension that had been building for years not just within the plot but FOR VIEWERS SINCE 2018.
so i don't exactly remember what happens next but the whole season they've been trying to kill The Twelve which was the assassin group in charge of villanelle, and we find out carolyn was a founding member actually, and i will be honest that plot was always confusing to me but iirc she wasn't with them anymore. so eve and villanelle infiltrate this wedding party boat that's a cover for a meeting of The Twelve (this is like the last 10 minutes of the show now) and they kiss again and there's a scene where it's like they're indirectly talking to each other through the wedding speech that eve somehow ends up giving and that's so romantic too and then villanelle slinks off, finds the meeting, and murders everyone. so yay the protagonists are together finally and villanelle killed her abusers and they are finally in happy gay love. then out of fucking nowhere as they're standing outside on the boat villanelle starts to get shot at. (this is literally the last five minutes of the entire show now) and she falls into the river or maybe jumps in to get away i don't remember and she's still getting shot and eve is swimming to try to catch her. and it's all this dramatic slow-mo beautifully shot stuff that's like horrible in context cause the blood is blooming in the water and eve can't reach villanelle and they do a whole creation of adam hand reach before villanelle slips into the depths.
so literally eve had just thrown away any chance at a normal life to embrace the side of her that loves violence and loves villanelle so they could spend the rest of their life together and that was such a slay. and then she loses villanelle which like, if they wanted a tragic ending it would have been kinder to kill them both, it's so much fucking worse to leave eve spending the rest of her life mourning the one person who understood her and let her give in to her carnal desires. and it is directly after letting the two queer characters finally achieve happiness that one of them is killed off which is the DEFINITION of the bury your gays/dead lesbian syndrome tropes, there have been literal academic papers written on how the phenomenon is like a punishment for queer joy etc etc. this shit has been in the discourse for decades and they fell dead center into the trope which is just so disappointing because at the start ke was such a unique story and one of the first mainstream shows that embraced morally gray queer characters in a way that wasn't homophobic.
oh! and guess who shot villanelle? carolyn!!!! and it was still NEVER CLEAR WHY! she worked for MI6 now so it being in revenge of The Twelve didn't really add up, some people thought she wanted to kill villanelle as like a prize for MI6, it was kind of implied that konstantin told her in this note he spent his last breaths writing (yeah he also died which was the saddest tbh) that villanelle had killed carolyn's son kenny (this was a major plot point of season 3 and carolyn was trying to get revenge, he fell off a building under mysterious circumstances) but that made no sense because it was implied to be konstantin since he was on the roof with kenny and also villanelle was literally in fucking spain or something the episode when it happened.
like i get it. this is a tragic show. people die every episode. but from a writing standpoint it makes absolutely zero fucking sense to kill off one of the two main characters of your show, in the last five minutes of the show, after finally cashing in on your flagship queer romance between them, and leaving the motivation for killing her completely ambiguous.
anyways i'm so sorry that ended up this long jesus christ but tldr: killing eve ends in the worst bury your gays i have ever seen after a season that didn't even have good plot or pacing

frothing at the mouth actually. still can’t believe she said eve can go back to a “normal” life now where, iirc, she can get married again, live a domestic life. because the obsession with villanelle was just a phase. now she can go back to normal. like do you get it. do you get the biphobic allegory??? and then killing the lesbian the second she became actually happy?? in such a brutal way??? then saying the lesbian’s bisexual partner can finally move on and be normal. okay.

I have roughly 9,563 questions about season 4. Here are 20 in no particular order…
1. What the hell happened on that bridge?
2. Why does Eve seem indifferent to Villanelle’s very existence?
3. Why did they make V “kill” a cat?
4. How did V’s almost death not wake Eve up to a single thing about her feelings after all that screaming no no no?
5. Why does Eve give one single fuck about the 12?
6. Why no murder wives season? They didn’t have to be *together* the whole time, but they should’ve been together.
7. How come eps 7 & 8 were completely different to the whole season?
8. Who are the main characters of this show?
9. What was the point of any of the new characters?
10. Why the slap?
11. How does V even know where Eve is staying?
12. Who wrote this stupid ass double meaning dialogue?
13. Why the mean ass stripping in 403?
14. Who cut the CGI budget to $11?
15. How come a sniper couldn’t get a decent hit when V was standing out in the open but managed multiple underwater shots from an unknown vantage point in dirty water AT NIGHT??
16. How come it seemed like V was an annoying kid sister to Eve instead of a formidable assassin / whole series love interest?
17. Why have V & E hooking up with other people till the last minute?
18. Why Pam if not to save V?
19. Why does Hugo exist?
20. Why “I owe you a dare”?

This is just me rambling but I'm rewatching Killing Eve and I feel like there was so much potential for symbolism- they could've done something with lots of characters being good at languages/language in general because it gets brought up a lot- but they just never really do anything (at least from what I remember, I've only just finished s1). Don't get me wrong, s1 is absolutely amazing, but I think it would've really elevated the story as a whole (and maybe made it easier to tie up?)

You seriously need to read this thread on Twitter, because it sums up the main issue with Killing Eve seasons 3 and 4 perfectly.
Tumblr media
Season 1 was a masterpiece. Season 2 was definitely not as good, but it still understood the characters. Seasons 3 and 4 undermined the whole purpose of Killing Eve, Eve, and Villanelle. They showed a fundamental misunderstanding of the characters and the story itself. They took a morally subversive story and bent and twisted it to fit a moral binary it was never supposed to exist in – one it was supposed to rebel against.
Eve and Villanelle were meant to be a defiance of that moral binary, to exist all along a spectrum of right and wrong and morally gray areas, because they don't confine to traditional concepts of right and wrong to begin with.
Anyway, the showrunners of seasons 3 and 4 didn't understand the characters, nor the point of the story they inherited, and it showed.

So late to the party but I finally finished Killing Eve and I join the rest of the world in saying what the literal fuck was that finale ending...worst writing choice I have witnessed...why could they not stop this choice from happening. Absolutely atrocious it felt both insulting and cruel...I've previously heard about the online fury around the ending and I knew the finale ending was going to be bad before I watched it but the extent to how bad the last scene was gonna be... seriously what the fuck

Killing Eve: The Beginning
Season 5: Limited Series
So.... it's no surprise that a vast number of KE fans were less than thrilled with the way Season 4 ended - myself included.
So, rather than merely stewing over it and wallow in what could have been's, I figured the ending was ripe for an epilogue of sorts to tie up some loose ends and thought what the hell - bloody good writing exercise if nowt else!
I've previously shared my thoughts on possible outcomes following the closing moments of the show finale but if you're planning on reading the script (so far...), I'd recommend saving that post for afterwards to avoid possible spoilers in my script.
It's just a first draft and very rough around the edges but it gives you an idea where my head's at.
Thoughts and feedback is more than welcome, good or bad!
Either way, I hope you enjoy it!
(Disclaimer: This is only a spec script and is in NO way connected to the writing team, programme makers or anyone connected to the Killing Eve TV series or books.)

So.... should I continue or no? 🤔

in general i do think killing eve has so much that would appeal to tlt fans: morally gray toxic codependent relationships between women, women who are the only two people in the world that could understand each other, women who end up together after trying to kill each other for years, scenes that seem incredibly romantic but end in people stabbing each other, kissing while fighting, villanelle's fashion which fluctuates between hyper feminine and traditionally masculine sometimes in the same episode, women who love to make each other worse, women who realize they like killing and violence, women murdering asshole men in very satisfying ways, a lot of being sexy while killing people, milfs, milfs making out, women getting turned on watching their ex kill people while making eye contact with them, blood and guts and gross stuff and women who retain their visible injuries across episodes instead of looking facetuned 24/7, women who work in morgues cause they love being around dead people, the list goes on

the "it would be depressing for eve to die" remark irks me. eve had been blindly chasing after certain death for 4 seasons & made numerous mentions of not caring if she dies or hoping she dies yet killing her would be depressing? but it's not depressing to kill a character who is trying to be better and expresses wanting MORE out of life from the very beginning of the show only for her to just barely graze happiness and be killed shortly after. THAT is what pisses me off the most
