Stephen King is continuing to campaign for the Paramount+ series Evil to make its return from the dead.
After recently giving the show his overwhelming seal of approval, the literary icon demanded the streaming platform renew the supernatural procedural that recently ended after four seasons.
“Dear Paramount+: More Evil, please,” King wrote Sunday on X, to which star Katja Herbers responded, “From the bottom of our Evil hearts, thank you!!!”
The online exchange comes after Herbers previously shared a video this week of King praising the show in a PBS News interview. “There’s a show called Evil on Paramount+ that I like,” he said in the clip. “It’s great. It’s funny and it’s witty and it’s very, very sharp.”
“Okay Can We Do The Pick Up Now? thank you @StephenKing,” wrote Herbers with the video, which King shared in a quote post, adding that the show is “smart,...

This article contains spoilers for Evil.
A priest, a psychologist, and a scientist... It may sound like the start of a joke, but it’s the unstoppable trio at the heart of Michelle and Robert King's Evil. Originally debuting on CBS in 2019 before transitioning to Paramount+ for subsequent seasons, the show has delivered one of the most gripping horror thrillers of recent years. When the decision was made to cancel the series, the creators crafted an additional four episodes, ensuring that fans received the finale they deserved—and what a finale it was!
Season 4 proved just as absorbing, intense, and twisted as its predecessors. The creators didn’t ease off the gas; instead, they treated viewers to one of the best seasons yet, delivering justice not just to the lead characters but to the supporting ensemble as well. In just four episodes, we watched as the characters prepared to make life-altering decisions,...

Hell hath no fury like fans who lose a brilliant show before its time. Such is the case with Evil, the supernatural series unlike anything else on screens. When word came down from on high that Evil would end with the conclusion of its fourth season, fans rallied online to save the show from cancelation, with the show’s brilliant star, Katja Herbers, leading the charge. Herber’s enthusiasm for the series is inspiring, with the actress championing the show’s continuation at every turn, signaling to networks and streamers that Team Evil is ready and willing to continue the show’s unique spin on the all but extinct and nostalgic monster-of-the-week formula. Helping to add fuel to Herbers’ fire is the Master of Horror himself, Stephen King, who recently sang Evil’s praises during a PBS News interview. With such a ringing endorsement from one of entertainment’s most sought-after creators,...

Katja Herbers is renewing hope that Evil will get picked up for another season on Paramount+.
The star of the supernatural series reignited the campaign to save the show after Stephen King expressed his approval on social media.
“There’s a show called Evil on Paramount+ that I like,” King said in an interview on PBS News. “It’s great. It’s funny and it’s witty and it’s very, very sharp.
Herbers shared the clip of King’s interview, adding, “Okay, can we do the pick up now? Thank you, Stephen King.”
King then quoted Herbers post, adding, “Smart, thought-provoking, occasionally Very scary. Plus, the chemistry between the three evil-hunters is strong and…to quote Kamala…joyful.”
You're making us blush.

Irrepressible Evil star Katja Herbers let loose with a “Holy S–T!!!!” reaction after Stephen King, Master of Horror, elaborated on his affection for the “very scary” and “joyful” — but alas cancelled — Paramount+ drama.
Earlier this week, an interview clip circulated of King naming Evil as a TV show that he likes. “It’s great,” he said. “It’s funny and it’s witty and it’s very, very sharp.”

Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s names have been bouncing around social media a lot lately — and not just because South Park warned everybody about that whole “Disney being pure evil” business. Multiple X/Twitter accounts have been generating thousands of likes with an old clip of the duo sharing the “greatest lesson in storytelling ever.”
Back in 2011, the duo were guest lecturers in Professor Ken Liotti’s “Story-Telling Strategies” class at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts. Why? Well, it was all part of the show Stand In, which aired on mtvU, the MTV-owned channel for college students.
Each episode of Stand In found real, totally unsuspecting students being taught lessons by celebrity guests, such as Cameron Diaz, Seth MacFarlane and even Larry David, presumably because UCLA has an “Advanced Misanthropy” course. More regrettably, Ye guested in one episode, back when he was known as Kanye West.

Spoiler Alert: This article contains details about the Evil series finale “Fear of the End,” which dropped this morning on Paramount+
In the end, Evil truly brought evil to the heart of the Catholic church with a potential Antichrist baby now being wheeled around the sunny Vatican by its mother Dr. Kristen Bouchard (Katja Herbers) and its priestly guardian of sorts David Acosta (Mike Colter).
Talk about going dark.
“The punchline at the end, is this kid possibly, or probably, is the Antichrist, and Lexis (Maddy Crocco), the second youngest, is probably going to be this evil protector to him,” says Evil co-creator and finale director Robert King of the fanged and white-eyed baby staring up at his mother. “Then it comes down to Kristen, who’s always mother first to protect those two, and actually probably to the detriment of humankind, but to the benefit of her family, which is just comic to us.

There was no hiding the fact that Kristen’s words were spoken on behalf of everyone who has brought Evil to life and those of us who have watched it. It’s not just sad; it’s mean.

[This story contains major spoilers from the tenth episode of Evil season four, “How to Survive a Storm.”]
There are few mother-daughter relationships in recent TV history as complicated as that the one played out between Christine Lahti and Katja Herbers during the last four seasons of Evil.
Lahti’s Sheryl, originally comic relief in the supernatural drama as the dippy babysitter to her grandchildren, became increasingly at odds with Herbers’ Kristen — on account of Sheryl’s personal and professional relationship with the series’ de facto villain: Leland Townsend (Michael Emerson). The shit really hit the fan when Kristen found out her mom was involved in a demonic IVF scheme, one in which Kristen’s stolen egg was fertilized with Leland’s sperm to bring forth the antichrist. (Ugh, moms!)
It would have been a lot to come back from, so, naturally, they never did. Sheryl died during the July 25 episode “How to Survive a Storm,” potentially earning some redemption...

In the immediate aftermath of the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, Michelle and Robert King were informed that Paramount+ would not be moving forward with a fifth season of their supernatural drama, Evil. They were given four additional episodes to wrap up the series, which were announced in February. But a funny thing happened just two months later. The first two seasons of Evil dropped on Netflix and were, like so many overlooked library titles that dropped before, a hit.
Evil ranked behind only Bridgerton as the top streaming original as recently as June, a fact that is not lost on the veteran writers and producers who are now officially closing the book on their show at the peak of its popularity.

Joe Biden has made his decision, and will not seek a second term. The announcement on a sleepy July Sunday morning rocked social media.
After a Saturday that saw both Donald Trump and his running mate Sen J.D. Vance (R-oh) campaigning, as was Vice President Kamala Harris, the one-page correspondence from Biden, who has been at his Delaware home recovering from Covid, also noted that Potus intends to “speak to the nation later this week.
Biden’s decision and announcement came after weeks of revolt among party donors, supporters and congressional members that the president’s electoral chances and already shaky polls were dimming following a disastrous debate performance that raised new concerns about his age.

When TV Insider asked Carrie Preston for her dream guest star in Elsbeth Season 2, she told us with a laugh, “You know I have to say Michael Emerson.” Preston and Emerson are married and have worked together onscreen before, including on Person of Interest. Executive producer Robert King, noting that past collaboration, told us ahead of the CBS drama’s premiere that having them back together “would be so much fun.” And so when we caught up with Emerson recently—he’s currently starring on another Robert and Michelle King show, Evil (now airing its final season)—we had to ask him what kind of role he’d want to play if that came to fruition. “Gee, I honestly don’t know. It would be too obvious if I were the killer of the week or something like that. As soon as my face comes on, everybody will know, which...

Even though CBS' Elsbeth just hit the small screen in 2024, Elsbeth Tascioni's title character is by no means new to television. Thousands who followed The Good Wife and then The Good Fight were already familiar with Carrie Preston's quirky attorney. However, an entire show revolving around her has long been nothing more than a distant dream for years.
Fortunately, the year 2024 changed the game, introducing a show that felt both refreshing and nostalgic, filling a niche that had been empty for far too long. Now that the show has been renewed for another season, Carrie Preston has revealed how the character came to life in the first place.
Is Elsbeth a Columbo Rip-Off?
As a spinoff of the 2009 TV hit The Good Wife, Elsbeth has been 14 years in the making. Indeed, as Preston jokes in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she's been 'off' most of the time in...

“I love to play characters who are ironically interesting and challenging in terms of the way they navigate through life,” shares Linda Lavin about how she chooses roles, including the one she recently portrayed on “Elsbeth.” Her guest appearance on the new CBS drama series was indeed challenging as she stepped into the shoes of the sharp-tongued Gloria, the president of a luxury New York City co-op who is murdered by a real estate agent with a vendetta (Jane Krakowski) and her fed-up tenants. The legendary actress appears in the second episode, “A Classic New York Character,” and calls Gloria “provocative” because of the “evil and dangerous and malicious” things she says. Watch our exclusive video interview above.
Lavin has made many guest appearances in her over 60 years on television, including on “The Good Wife,” which is the series on which Carrie Preston’s character Elsbeth was first introduced. The...

X and Instagram turned into celebratory water coolers for the likes of Lynda Carter, Rob Reiner, Mark Hamill, Michael Rapaport, Henry Winkler and more Thursday after a New York City found former President Donald Trump guilty on all 34 counts of falsifying business records.
“God Bless New York City,” posted Ellen Barkin — who, like so many other celebrities, were eager to weigh in on the verdict that came in shortly after 5 p.m. Et. Trump sat motionless between his attorneys, Todd Blanche and Emil Bove, as the jury was polled.
All affirmed their guilty verdicts.
“The Republican candidate for president is a convicted felon,” wrote Stephen King.

I watch a lot of horror films, but movies and television shows about possessions are what really scare and intrigue me. Evil, a series by Michelle and Robert King, not only discusses the topic of possessions, but also explores the matters of grief and corruption. After three successful seasons, the creators return with season 4, which is just as solid and absorbing as the chapters before. The new installment continues to explore the sins of humanity while giving the characters new paths to venture to.
Season 3 [Spoiler Warning] ended with a shocking revelation: Leeland (Michael Emerson) is having Kristen's biological baby with a surrogate, who’s supposed to be a new Antichrist. As the new season commences, Kristen (Katja Herbers) tries to process the news, David (Mike Colter) continues to secretly work for the Vatican, and Ben (Aasif Mandvi) unexpectedly encounters apparitions that he seeks to approach scientifically. Meanwhile, Leeland is still manipulating...

A Cujo-core droid that’s just as adorable as it is terrifying? Sounds like someone we know. We’re looking at you, Kristen! But I’d cut her some slack considering episode 2 of the final season of Evil chucks her life into a tornado of problems. Ben and David have got troubles of their own brewing. And none of the three are bringing it to the table. What could go wrong in such a scenario?
Spoiler Alert
So, what mystery are we half-solving this week?
Kristen’s right. A werewolf that scares easy isn’t the type that’d chase the parish priest and the congregants away. I don’t know how Michelle and Robert King do it, but something as ridiculous as a pair of very fake glowing eyes in the darkness of the graveyard looks absolutely terrifying to us as well as to the investigator trio.

As Evil‘s Season 4 premiere pointed out earlier this week, Leland Townsend has been so focused on his goal of bringing about the birth of the Antichrist that he glossed over a few crucial details — like the emotionally and physically taxing work of raising a child, even one that’s supposed to bring about the end of humanity.

We’re going to need every minute of the next 13 weeks to prepare to say goodbye to Evil, the chilling psychological thriller that follows forensic psychologist Kristen (Katja Herbers), priest David (Mike Colter), and contractor/tech expert Ben (Aasif Mandvi) as they investigate unexplained cases for the Catholic church … and, this season, prepare for the birth of the antichrist. But sadly, it is the final season. The good news? They got four bonus episodes to wrap up the story, but how much will be resolved, and how much will be left open-ended? “Hopefully everything is going to be resolved, but sometimes resolution adds more questions,” co-creator Michelle King tells TV Insider. Adds co-creator Robert King, “The resolution can point forward. I don’t think anything will be tied up in the most perfect bow, but there will be a bow. It just might have a little bit of leaving something open to the audience imagination.

How do you define Evil — not the concept, but the TV show? When it debuted on CBS back in 2019, Evil was pitched as an offbeat procedural, following a team of paranormal investigators hired by the Catholic Church to confirm or debunk reports of demonic activity. It was set up initially as a monster-of-the-week series, spiked with the sharp wit and social commentary familiar to fans of writer/producers Michelle and Robert King’s The Good Wife and The Good Fight.
As it rolls into its fourth and final season (which will include four “bonus episodes” to close everything out), Evil remains a procedural… sort of. Ever since it moved to Paramount+ for Season 2, the show has gotten darker, crazier, and more complex, while retaining a basic episodic structure. The heroes still chase a new demon nearly each week — but now they’re also dealing with much more.

Paramount+’s philosophical horror drama begins its fourth and final season—ending far too soon for its many fans. What can we expect? To start, the psychopathic devil-worshiping Leland (Michael Emerson) is not enjoying raising Timothy, the puking, pooping infant, born via surrogate from a purloined egg from Kristen (Katja Herbers) that he self-fertilized and whom he believes to be the Antichrist. He’s not the only one with issues, however. All three of the Catholic Church’s exorcist assessors are going through a lot. Confirmed atheist Ben (Aasif Mandvi) “has a real crisis of faith—in science and medicine, after suffering from migraines and visions,” says Evil executive producer Robert King. “His arc is moving from a true belief in science and medicine to how much of life is a mystery beyond that.” “David [Mike Colter] is clearly struggling with his attraction to Kristen,” King continues. “But even more...

You don’t want to eat too much, you just want to have just the right amount,” declares “Elsbeth” showrunner Jonathan Tolins about giving the audience the best of Elsbeth’s quirky traits without overdoing it or wearing out the audience. “Carrie is such an honest actress. She knows how to play everything real for Elsbeth, so it never feels like we’re just doing silly schtick.” For our recent webchat he adds, “A lot of the fun things we do with her is that she’s in the background, back of the frame, doing her thing,” he says, noting with a wry smile that “tone is the hardest thing to describe, but it’s like the old Supreme Court definition of pornography: you know it when you see it.” We talked with Tolins as part of Gold...

Makeup design doesn’t always mean prosthetics or extremes — that’s why the Emmy Awards smartly single out contemporary makeup design as its own category.

Elsbeth Tascioni has been around for three series now. Carrie Preston introduced the most upbeat litigator of all time with the finesse of a drunken master on “The Good Wife” (winning an Emmy Award for her guest appearance) and reprised the role on the spinoff series “The Good Fight.” Now, the character gets her own CBS series with “Elsbeth,” from “The Good Wife” and “The Good Fight” creators Michelle King and Robert King, in which her defense attorney acts as an oddball crime solver while acting as a legal observer for an NYPD consent decree.

Writing duo Michelle and Robert King have had a long winning streak. Back in 2009, the married couple debuted their first show together, the CBS legal drama The Good Wife. Over the course of its consistently excellent 7 seasons, the show was nominated for 43 Emmy Awards and 14 Golden Globes. Rolling Stone called it 'Network TV's Last Great Drama'.
The Good Wife went on to spawn The Good Fight and Elspeth, two spin-offs also written and created by Michelle and Robert King.
But the duo wanted to stretch out beyond the confines of the courtroom, so in 2019 they hit the airwaves with something totally different: a psychological mystery series about Catholicism, faith, the supernatural, and evil.

For a long time, shows with a goofy main character were received perfectly by the audience. Easy storylines, lighthearted characters and a lot of dumb situations that seemed deeper when you had a better look at them.
So the writers Michelle King and Robert King decided to reuse the formula and create something of that sort in 2024. That’s how Elsbeth was born. The series revolves around a woman named Elsbeth Tascioni, brilliantly played by Carrie Preston. She is this typical offbeat weirdo of a person who always finds herself out of sync with other people.
The thing is she is also an astute attorney, who despite being very unconventional still managed to find a way to bring the world to justice. Because of her methods of work her colleagues always find her annoying and don’t trust her. But she still puts her heart out there every day.

CBS has renewed the critically acclaimed drama Elsbeth for the 2024-2025 season. Elsbeth is the #2 most-watched new series of the season and currently has a Rotten Tomatoes score of 92%.
"Elsbeth has charmed audiences with its singular blend of delightful humor, distinctive ‘how-done-it’ storytelling, and the inventive, brilliant quirkiness of Elsbeth Tascioni,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment.
Reisenbach continued: “Executive producers Robert and Michelle King have a stellar track record for creating critically acclaimed series full of unforgettable characters and, alongside showrunner Jonathan Tolins and his writing team, have developed an incredibly entertaining and engrossing New York City-centric world for the show to explore.
“We are grateful to the uniquely talented cast, led by Carrie Preston, Wendell Pierce, and Carra Patterson, for bringing these wonderful characters to life in the company of a world-class roster of weekly guest stars.”

CBS has renewed the freshman series Elsbeth for the 2024-2025 season.
In Deadline’s latest Renewal Status Report released on Wednesday, Co-Editor-in-Chief Nellie Andreeva projected Elsbeth would be renewed for a second season. This leaves The Equalizer, NCIS: Hawai’i, So Help Me Todd and CSI: Vegas pending renewal/cancellation news.
Across broadcast and streaming, Elsbeth is netting nearly 11M viewers after 35 days of viewing. That’s up 52% from CSI: Vegas’ performance in that time slot last year.

CBS is adding to its already extensive list of series renewals for the 2024-25 season.
The latest pickup for the network is Elsbeth, the Columbo-esque Good Wife offshoot starring Carrie Preston as the title character, lawyer-turned-investigator Elsbeth Tascioni. The series has performed well over its first few episodes, ranking as the second most watched newcomer on the broadcast networks this season (behind fellow CBS show Tracker). It averages about 11 million viewers over five weeks of viewing on all platforms (CBS, Paramount+ and CBS TV apps).

Third in a series on broadcast network series renewals. CBS will have some painful cancellation decisions to make this spring. With three new drama series, NCIS: Origins, Matlock and Watson, on tap for next season, S.W.A.T. surprisingly uncanceled and the Australian NCIS: Sydney, originally only intended as a temporary replacement during the strike, also renewed for 2024-25, the network will have to do some slate purging to make room for the additions.
That will likely impact more than one of the remaining CBS drama series whose fate has not been determined, The Equalizer, NCIS: Hawai’i, Elsbeth, So Help Me Todd and CSI: Vegas, a group that includes the network’s current dramas with a female lead. It features series that would not be canceled under normal circumstances. CBS’ schedule this season has been performing well, led by new breakout hit Tracker, and all five dramas in...

Elsbeth: Pictured: Carrie Preston as Elsbeth Tascioni Photo: Michael Parmelee/CBS ©2024 CBS Broadcasting, Inc. All Rights Reserved. The Good Wife continues to live on through a second spinoff series: Elsbeth, featuring the recurring character played by Carrie Preston on both The Good Wife and its first spinoff, The Good Fight. The new series is certainly more lighthearted than The Good Wife, playing heavily on the Elsbeth character’s quirky personality and unconventional ways of solving cases. Robert King, who — with his wife, Michelle — created both The Good Wife and Elsbeth, talked about how they were envisioning an Elsbeth series, they kept coming back to one classic character: Peter Falk’s legendary detective from Columbo. (Click on the media bar below to hear Robert King) https://www.hollywoodoutbreak.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/RObert_King_Elisbeth_Columbo_.mp3 Elsbeth airs Thursday nights on CBS, and episodes start streaming the following day on Paramount+.

The first episode of the new CBS series Elsbeth aired back in late February and now the network is finally airing the second episode!
Back-to-back new episodes of the Carrie Preston-led series will air Tonight (April 4) beginning at 9/8c on CBS.
For those who don’t know, Elsbeth follows Carrie‘s beloved recurring character Elsbeth Tascioni from The Good Wife, though the new series is not billed as a spin-off.
“For me, a spinoff means a continuation of the world in some way,” creator Robert King told the Los Angeles Times. “I did think of The Good Fight as being a spinoff of The Good Wife. This feels like a really different show. It’s a different genre, a different tone.”
So, why the long wait?

Exclusive: CBS’ Elsbeth will count on three additional guest stars for its Season 1 cast: Elizabeth Lail (Five Nights At Freddy’s), Arian Moayed (Succession) and Laura Benanti (The Gilded Age). Following a brief hiatus, the show returns April 4 with two episodes.
Elsbeth follows the titular Elsbeth Tascioni (Carrie Preston), an astute but unconventional attorney who utilizes her singular point of view to make unique observations and corner brilliant criminals alongside the NYPD following her successful career in Chicago. The character first appeared in The Good Wife and later in The Good Fight spinoff.
In addition to Preston, Wendell Pierce and Carra Patterson round out the series regular cast as Captain Wagner and Kaya Blanke, respectively. Gloria Reuben recurs as Wagner’s wife, Claudia Payne. The cast is small as the police procedural dramedy depends on a healthy supply of guest stars like Stephen Moyer, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Linda Lavin and Blair Underwood,...

CBS’s new midseason drama Elsbeth returns to the network’s primetime lineup with an episode that features guest stars Linda Lavin and Jane Krakowski. Season one episode two, “A Classic New York Character,” will air on Thursday, April 4, 2024 at 9pm Et/Pt. Episode three, “Reality Shock,” follows at 10pm Et/Pt.
The new primetime drama kicked off with an episode that featured a friend of Carrie Preston’s, Stephen Moyer. During a press conference prior to the premiere, Preston talked about reuniting with her True Blood co-star.
“You know, True Blood, I mean, it holds a special special place in my heart. My career sort of took off in a way that it hadn’t before that show, and so we all bonded. We made True Blood kind of in a vacuum, and then it aired. […] We weren’t even together. So, we all like bonded over that show,...

CBS audiences first met Carrie Preston’s alter ego Elsbeth Tascioni in a first-season episode of their prestige legal drama “The Good Wife.” The character would go on to appear in almost every season of that series and quickly leapfrogged to its even-better sequel “The Good Fight,” where she dropped in on three of its six years. Clearly a favorite of fans as well as series creators Robert King and Michelle King, Preston’s Elsbeth, a daffy and disorganized but utterly unassuming and brilliant lawyer, now has her own series, which debuted its premiere episode on Feb. 29 — a leap year, how fitting.
Relocated from Chicago to New York City (where all of the “Good” series shoot), Elsbeth now works for the New York Police Department as an observer, making sure the force’s officers follow the letter of the law. The series introduces two new regulars: Wendell Pierce as the...
