What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the CBS television network, Evil stars Katja Herbers, Mike Colter, Aasif Mandvi, Michael Emerson, Christine Lahti, Kurt Fuller, Brooklyn Shuck, Skylar Gray, Maddy Crocco, and Dalya Knapp. A forensic psychologist, Kristen Bouchard accepts a job offer from David Acosta (Colter), a former adventure-seeking journalist. He’s now studying to be a Catholic priest and has been tasked by the Church to assess unexplained phenomena. Acosta also recruits Ben Shakir (Mandvi), an even-tempered realist with carpentry skills. He uses those abilities to uncover practical rationales behind “hauntings.” Kristen is certain that science can provide answers to every incident that the trio encounters — until she meets Leland Townsend (Emerson). He’s a sinister man who oozes menace and threatens Kristen and her four young daughters (Shuck, Gray, Crocco, and Knapp). Undeterred, Kristen, David, and Ben set out to assess inexplicable events to see if there’s a logical explanation or if something truly supernatural is at work.

Telly’s Take
Will CBS cancel or renew Evil for season two? The ratings haven’t been very good but I suspect CBS really wants this show to succeed and will give it time to prove itself worthy of renewal.

Please bring the show Evil back!
Please bring this show back. I am so upset that Season 2 has no release date. Definitely my favorite show so far.
I really enjoyed the show EVIL I thought the suspense was awesome. The leading star was very beautiful
Waiting patiently for the next Evil episode
I love this show!!! Please don’t cancel!!!
Captivating addictive tv series. Interesting characters, plots, themes. Nothing else like it. Must have more!
Great Show! Please make season 2
Great Show !
Waiting for second season
I thought this show was AWESOME It shows the Love of a Mother and how strong a bond can be with a child (even an android) Jo loves Piper unconditionally. Way cool show!!
Ok. I hadn’t seen the last episode now I have and I’m not sure I can keep watching. This show literally gives me true panic. I know my brain should know these are all actors it’s not real. The guy that plays Liland had been in tons of other stuff some where he’s not bad and I’m not even sure it’s him as much as Kristens mom that is pissing me off. The team needs to deal with him. I want her mom to be no more. She makes me too nervous because she’s SO blind and she will bring… Read more »
I was totally into this show. I need to see it finished!!!!! I go to watch it and it’s no longer there!!!! I SO hope they put it back on very soon there’s nothing on Thursdays and that’s the only show like it on TV. Nothing else has been that good and creepy.
I can’t agree more! It seems that CBS renewed it for Season 2, but not word on when. Since it’s March, if it’s going to be a mid-season replacement, it should be starting soon! TO CBS: (everyone chant) BRING EVIL BACK! BRING EVIL BACK!
I’m so happy they renewed this show! It’s got so many crazy things going on! I was disappointed to see “Tommy” in its place, so I got worried.
Enjoyed this show very much & so glad it is coming back!!
I love this show! It is refreshingly different from all the hospital/crime dramas out there. And I am always just a little scared of what will happen next! It keeps you guessing and intrigued. I hope it’s here to stay.
