‘Evil’ Creators Robert and Michelle King Break Down the Aftermath of Murder in Season 2 Premiere and Why COVID Wasn’t Written Into the Show
Kate Aurthur editorSPOILER ALERT: Do not read if you have not yet watched the Season 2 premiere of “Evil,” streaming now on Paramount Plus.The Season 1 finale of “Evil” — when it aired all the way back in Jan. 2020 — ended on quite the cliffhanger: It appeared that Kristen Bouchard (Katja Herbers) had murdered serial killer Orson LeRoux (Darren Pettie), who’d been threatening her family and, after a crucifix on a rosary burned her hand, Kristen might actually be possessed? It was a lot.Nearly 17 months later, after “Evil” switched from broadcast network CBS to streamer Paramount Plus, the jury is still out on the possession — but yes, Kristen totally killed LeRoux.
