Michael Emerson thoughts.

Watching Lost: Punch him, punch him, punch him harder.

Watching Evil: Punch him, stab him, shoot him, set him on fire.

Watching Person of Interest: Protect the precious little man at all costs.

Nobody, I repeat, nobody hurt Harold.

If there's one thing the TV show Evil does incredibly well (and they do a lot of things pretty great) it's making Leland Townsend the least likable motherfucker (ha) on Earth

I've only seen through season one but already he has, in no particular order,

Stolen a woman's therapy notes and used sensitive information to torment her in court and in private

Targeted that woman's mom and kids, giving the kids notebooks with satanic symbols and stealing her mom's housekey

Trolled incel forums to find a kid to goad into shooting up a woman's prayer group (and almost succeeded, the kid just messed up the day of and accidentally shot himself in the head)

Coached an influencer to make a 94 minute long "challenge video" encouraging kids to watch, and hid subliminal messaging in it saying "across for attention, down for results"

Thrived in the court as a psychologist letting serial killers run free and imprisoning innocent people

Send an innocent kid to jail, got called out on it, and said "after his second prison rape he won't be"

Played the tuba in marching band, and he wasn't even that good at it (jk jk I'm a mellophone don't kill me)

I mean, if the goal is to make the devil unlikable, they sure as hell succeeded. He's such a well written character I want to strangle him everytime he's on screen.

BROOOOOOO

I just finished s2 ep7 of Evil, “S is for Silence”, and omg it’s gotta be my all time FAVORITE episode like

The concept?

An almost completely silent episode?

The mysteries?

Fenna??

Ben’s “wtf” moments??

The mild horror??

Kristen trying not to burst a blood vessel from the monks’ misogyny??

David attempting to quiet his mind??? (and failing at it which is so damn relatable but seriously the subtitles killed me 💀💀💀)

Fenna and Kristen having so much fun??? They have like a best friend bond but also mother and daughter bond which is soooooo sweet 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

David x Kristen build up (???)

Kristen being the one to set off the climax by spiting a skeleton??? (she’s had it up to here ^ with this shit lmao)

And the actual explanation for the mysteries????

But also the stuff that was left unexplained?????

11/10 one of the best episodes of Evil yet

Evil TV show, C for COP episode, racial inequality, show don't tell writing, storytelling techniques, police bias, impactful TV episodes, African American representation, writing lessons from TV, media portrayal of racism

Learn more about the show: https://www.paramountplus.com/shows/evil/ Transcript So I am watching this show evil. And, and I was talking to my husband about this last episode that we saw, and that it does a great job of showing the theme that it wants to focus on during the episode. And I think I took that as a great writing lesson. Because oftentimes, as authors, we are asked to show and not…

I have watched 3 seasons of the show (Now I finished episode 9 Of season 3).

I don’t know what to say, it is good but there is a problem with the characters, for example you have the character kristen, I can’t understand how after everything that happened with her for a year, she is still in a state of denial of demons and God. It was quite clear that she was possessed, she lived the experience literally, after she recovered, she ignored everything as if it had not happened, and then she still said that there were no demons.

Do we want to talk about how Grace told her that Laura would recover from heart disease because God said this, after this actually happened, after the doctor didn’t know how to describe this and said it was a miracle. Kristen didn’t admit that God did this!

She’s not digging behind anything, she’s got more than one piece of proof and she’s still in denial, the character doesn’t have any plot development. They wrote Kurt’s character much better, he didn’t get all the proofs that Kristen got, he only got one proof, then he started digging to find answers, to understand the other side of the world, he didn't rest until he could understand, I'm talking about a psychiatrist who has been working for 30 years, providing answers to people with mental illness. This doctor only needed one piece of proof to start the search, while Kristen has had more than one and is still in denial.

When I started watching the show, it was logical that Kristen was not convinced that there were demons or a god, as for her thoughts, I thought that she needed time to be able to get to know this world of demons and behind, that she would start to be convinced after she lived through these cases, or after she got proof… But this disappointing thing was that she hadn’t changed at all, there was nothing new about her character.

Michael Emerson plays the creepy guy so well lol.

I remember enjoying Evil on CBS and being excited about season 2. But learned later it would only be available through CBS streaming so was disappointed that I wouldn't get to watch it anymore.

Until now. CBS streaming is now Paramount and I was gifted a subscription. Rewatching Season 1 is like watching it for the first time again. I remember why I was so disappointed that season 2 would only be available on streaming. I remember how I liked that even when a case was closed it didn't mean a happy ending.

Im watching Evil for the first time because of Michael Emerson it looked cool, and omg there are other people from POI on here!!
