Sadly, this is one of only a few Killing Eve episodes where I didn't feel the need to rewatch any of the scenes. My expectations were low after all the screeners reviews, but still can't believe they wasted penultimate episode on nothing. Also, this is not supposed to be L Word, but they keep kissing everyone but each other and it feels like cheap fan service. I'm a lesbian just like everyone else, mind you, but it's like writers have no idea what to do with their main characters so they keep adding new, insignificant ones. Total lack of creativity in this episode.
Also, sick and tired of all the 'foreshadowing'. You can call it foreshadowing if you do it randomly once or twice a season, but if you do it in every single episode it's called spoiling, dumbing down or lazy writing, you pick.
Also too many parallels with previous seasons and between characters, so it's no longer subtle, but again, lazy. It is like Laura just rewatched seasons 1 to 3 and decided to jumble in fables, Renaissance tragedies, myths, past seasons' memorable scenes. This show was always original and deserved more than copy/paste final season. There's no other way to describe it than lazy writing.
