    Tn its third season, this former CBS show retains the fundamental forward momentum of a network procedural, even when it merrily throws the formula out the window. ... So many horrible things keep happening on Evil, yet everyone always seems to be having fun. Joy this nasty is positively blasphemous.

    I'm firmly convinced that no other show out there is doing it exactly like Evil, and three seasons in, that still remains true.

    Excellent. ... This is one of the smartest programs on TV, a show that’s constantly surprising viewers in a way that's like nothing else on the air right now.

    Without losing the show’s main thread, “Evil” can dip into spy thriller, disaster story, headline response, or, yes, horror tale with an ease that gets more impressive with each passing episode.

    Despite a lack of answers (at least in the first trio of installments), several unfinished storylines return in promising form. The cast is top-notch, and there’s never a dull moment thanks to smorgasbord of horny demons.

    In its third season, Paramount+’s Evil (formerly of CBS) remains one of the most clever, witty, and cerebral horror television series, period.

    Evil continues its smart combination of weekly cases with strong character arcs, all with the Kings’ dry sense of humor intact throughout the first episode of Season 3.

If you have a strong negative reaction to the portrayal of evil in the form of greedy, insidious, immoral beings organizing to promote their own prosperity over the wellbeing of everyone else, you may want to take a closer look at your own belief system and those of the people and organizations you align yourself with.… Full Review »
