Killing Eve

I know IBU for coming on here, and won’t post a spoiler for anyone who’s yet to watch, but I am absolutely furious at the ending. Such a disappointment in every way possible. I invested years of my life into this show and no other show has touched me in this way.

Anyone else feel the same?

To add, I was a youngster in the days of Boyzone, Take That and the Spice Girls and never felt anything when other girls were hysterically crying at their demise, but I’m really quite distraught at this flipping show! Absolutely mad and truly a first world problem.

Killing Eve was great because it was all about strong female characters like Eve, Villanelle and Carolyn. The men were the "extras".

I loved series 1. Then it was downhill from there. Yes the ending was disappointing.

Husband was singing his heart out to it, love Cameo! Yes op lots of swearing at the TV from our household at the ending.

I haven't seen it yet but the ending of Season 3, and the ballroom scene, were utterly beautiful. I'll literally never forget those. I'd have left it there.

I wonder if it was like Elementary - they thought season 6 was the last and then got season 7. So the real ending is season 6!

NellesVilla · 14/04/2022 23:53

I agree, @CharityShopChic, it was all about strong female role models and characters. Carolyn’s daughter was a bit weedy and wish washy, though. Pam seemed like the daughter she really wanted!

What happened to Carolyn's daughter? She just disappeared. I thought she was a brilliant contrast to her mum.

hopeful777 · 15/04/2022 00:04

Totally agree- fell in love with season 1 and dumbfounded with the final episode 😡

honestly felt it deserved better after hooking me in for so long! Similar to game of thrones final season too-wasn’t expecting a fairytale but even I could’ve thought of at least 10 ways it could have ended better! C’mon!!!

Oh I found her too annoying to watch! 😂
Padderbadger · 15/04/2022 02:20

Oh no! I haven't seen it yet but had the same issue with the end of game of thrones, totally ruined the whole series for me!

LegMeChicken · 15/04/2022 02:23

YANBU i feel exactly the same.
Last season was a bit of shambles tbh all loose ends wrapped up in a hurried, disjointed manner.

FelicityFlops · 15/04/2022 06:06

I started watching in lockdown and did not really understand what was going on. Then I read the books & understood even less, except that a lot of the explicit content was not tranferred to the small screen.
I am quite enjoying this last series, but am not overly engaged, hence 3 episodes recorded to watch at my leisure.
I do like the Fiona Shaw character, though, and echo a PP comments on the use of music.

I think it went downhill when PWB left

veronicagoldberg · 15/04/2022 06:53

Well, I mean, the title of the show sort of gives it away...

NellesVilla · 15/04/2022 07:08

@veronicagoldberg, you’d think wouldn’t you? But no.

She's still listed as Executive Producer.
EBearhug · 15/04/2022 10:02

It wasn't as good as series 1, but it did get better through the series. I was very disappointed and confused by the ending until I realised I still had another episode to go, so it did seem a better finish after that...

Dita73 · 15/04/2022 10:08

Main thing that pissed me off is that “Candy” has now been stuck in my head for 4 days!!!!

SoupDragon · 15/04/2022 10:11

I thought it was a h I've hep of crap.

My understanding of what the hell was going on got less and less as each series went on!

CharityShopChic · 15/04/2022 10:25

The best bit in the last season was Jodie Comer as Jesus. She is such a brilliant actress - I love her facial expressions.

Jellybean27 · 15/04/2022 11:11

I was pissed at the ending!

Carolyn is getting her own spin off.

EmmaH2022 · 15/04/2022 11:13

Carolyn and her face cream that smells like arse 😂

garlicandsapphires · 15/04/2022 11:15

@CharityShopChic oh I HATED her as Jesus! Something about that episode really irritated me and I actually gave up at the point.
Have just binged the rest though and it grew on me. I love that there are so many wonderful strong female characters.
