The story of two women with brutal pasts, addicted to each other but now trying desperately to live their lives without their drug of choice. For Villanelle, the assassin without a job, Eve is dead. For Eve, the ex-MI6 operative hiding in plain sight, Villanelle will never find her. All seems fine until a shocking and personal death sets them on a collision course yet again. The journey back to each other will cost both of them friends, family, and allegiances…and perhaps a share of their souls.

Heartbreaking season!
I don't understand why some fans don't like this season. It's different from 1 & 2 which is why I think it's great! Why would anyone want the same thing over & over (I'm looking at you Walking Dead)!Season 1 was fresh, clever, brilliant! Season 2 was hilarious, disturbing, and shocking! This one is more emotional, I cried a few times. Season 1 Villanelle was cocky & scary, in season 2 she is more confident & determined than ever & displays some very unsettling behavior (watching Eve & Niko, throwing the woman in the path of a truck, killing Gemma, enjoying watching Eve kill Raymond & of course "you're mine"). This season it appears that Villanelle is falling apart but in fact she is growing & allowing herself to feel & face her past & her pain. It is heartbreaking to watch especially episode 5, Are you from Pinner, when Villanelle goes to Russia to find her family. I've never seen anything more haunting than the last seconds of that episode. So tough to watch & it originally aired on Mother's Day!Not enough Eve & Villanelle scenes but as usual the ones we do get are wonderful. The bus scene reunion & their tea dance scene are perfect!The finale is so beautiful, I sometimes wish it had been the series finale.

Not down the drain yet, but definitely circling it.
With its third season concluded and a pandemic-delayed fourth season waiting for the green light, Eve (Sandra Oh) is still alive and no longer working with MI6. She's making dumplings in a Korean restaurant and trying to patch together a semblance of a life. Meanwhile, her ex-obsession, Villanelle (Emmy-winner Jodie Comer) is in Spain and about to celebrate "her special day" by marrying another woman until the party is crashed by her mentor, Dasha (Harriet Walter) who has shown up to offer the angry assassin a deal to return to kill for The Twelve, the shadowy criminal organization that employs them both.Under the guidance of Suzanne Heathcote, the new (and third) head writer/showrunner, the third season is a jumbled and overstuffed hot mess of new characters, unfilled plot holes, weird time jumps, unexplained events and simply bad episodes. The laws of time and space are shredded, characters wander in and out to deliver expository dialogue, and worst of all Eve and Villanelle spend less time together than in any other season until the finale.Coming off her unexpected Emmy win, Jodie Comer does well despite some drab and bizarre clothing and extremely unimaginative and illogical kills (death by tuning fork, anyone?). She doesn't seem entirely present in some scenes. Fiona Shaw as Carolyn Martens, the dodgy MI6 spymaster, is given more opportunity to show her emotional range as family matters and job pressures leave her more vulnerable than ever. Sandra Oh is supposedly the lead character (though she loses top billing on the DVD release to Comer), but Heathcote reduces Eve to supporting character status as she initiates nothing in the season and instead is put in positions where she is constantly reacting to what Villanelle and others are doing.Oh and the rest of the cast are sidelined entirely for a solo Villanelle episode that stops the show's limited momentum dead in its tracks and in its aftermath, the Russian assassin loses all interest in her work (and Eve as well) while Eve becomes laser focused upon finding her again. Most of Eve's dialogue for the final episodes can be summed up in three words: "Where is she?'I am a huge fan of Killing Eve, but the bloom is all but off this rose as the women at the heart of the story are mired in a lackluster rut of poorly executed plots (the resolution of the season's biggest mystery is eye-rolling in its badness) and a general sense of "Haven't we done this already?"Yeah, we have and it was better in Season One and Two than the dreary Season Three. This is a plate of cold and lumpy mashed potatoes and more than a bit disappointing when it isn't simply dull.

I like seasons 1 & 2 better
This show is really different. I guess it's some sort of offbeat dark romantic comedy. I enjoyed seasons one and two more than season 3 but it was still okay

Dam Man i Love Her. in a good Way.
For the love of my brain and my heart I don’t think there’s anyone who can play Villanelle (Jodie Comer):like she does., nada no way at all period. the clothes they give her to wear to make her stand out is incredible.and the look of what the hell are you trying to prove that I’m normal. no sorry I’m not. I’m laughing right now.that writing this entry of my happiness that I concluded this third season of “Killing Eve”but that’s just her. now Eve c’mon now give her some light please. stop making her wear those frumpy clothesthat look like she has no substance to the cause of her work. after all she did work for MI6.you know that intelligence agency that know their stuff of catching bad guys. please do it for me,cause if the fourth season is like this I don’t think I’ll watch the fifth if there is any. oh Jodie Comer you’re good.Runtime 5 Hrs 36 Min. on two discs.1.78:1English with some English Subtitles from Russian. 5.1 DTS.

Good series
Not as entertaining as season one and two. They have veered off the original concept and spent this season on the the personal life / back ground of the two main characters. Hopefully season 4 will return to the series main theme.

Continued maturation of an enjoyable series
The show has evolved with each season, but the acting and plots still keep us interested. I don't think anything will top s1 but now we get backstories and backgrounds on many of the characters so it evens out.

Excellent series!
IMO, season 3 is not quite up to the standard of 1 & 2, but still well worth watching.
