Get your holy water ready: ‘Evil’ is back for its fourth and final season

Here’s A BUNCH OF TV News

Tracker was your favorite network show last season (which, admittedly, was a really weird season) (but this also tracks).

The most-watched SNL sketch really shouldn’t be a surprise. (Honestly, this list of the top five is pretty good.)

AFTER NEARLY TWO YEARS, IT’S FINALLY BACK: Evil’s fourth and (~sob~) final season has begun streaming on Paramount+ today, and I cannot wait to sink my teeth into it.

Since it has been a minute since we last hung out with Kristen, David, Ben, and Leland, here’s what you need to remember from the first three seasons.
Collider argues that episode 4 of season 1 is the moment that the series really shows its teeth — and I have to agree. It’s the episode that made me buy all the way in.
This is a tribute to the wonderful Michael Emerson, TV’s most unsettling actor.
And here, the Evil actors discuss David and Kristen’s relationship and Ben’s struggle with faith. It’s spoilery for the first episode of season four, so proceed accordingly.

Reminder: you can watch the first two seasons of Evil on Netflix; seasons 1-3 are all available on Paramount+ and new episodes of season 4 will be available on Paramount+ every Thursday.

This is really uncool, Wheel of Fortune. BOOOOO.

HIRE QUINTA BRUNSON TO WRITE A HALLMARK CHRISTMAS MOVIE, YOU COWARDS.

They’re going to put ads in your movies. Not the movies in the movie theater (although that’s coming, I’m sure), but the movies on your streamers.

Taylor Sheridan is moving production of Yellowstone spinoff 1923 from Montana to Texas because he didn’t spend all that money on that 6666 Ranch for nothing.

Speaking of Yellowstone, it’s finally filming its final episodes. And Kevin Costner would like to tell his version of the story of how it all fell apart

Bring back David and DJ and DJ’s entire missing family.

Stop claiming The Simpsons predicted literally everything — it makes it less fun when they actually do predict something. Quit ruining things.

Give Valerie Bertinelli some space, guys.

Michael Richards would like you to know that he’s really not racist and he’s tried to learn from that whole incident 18 years ago. And to his credit: he neither tried to make a comeback nor did he cry that he was being “canceled.”
