The Final Assessment

Be not afraid, indeed. After a season spent wrestling with the reality of horns-and-pitchfork demons, the trio explores the flip side--Biblical angels. Here, the show decides not to indulge the representational aspect--wheels in the sky made of wings and eyes--to the same extent that it does for the demonic, instead spending the time to explore what an angel acting exactly as represented in the Bible would look like in current society. The result is terrifying, even as the weakness of pure venality as a motivating force becomes more obvious in Leland's weakness.#Evil #Season2 #AisforAngel #Pillarofsalt

The series seemed to hit its stride at the end of Season 1, when the tone finally seemed to set. Happily, there is no loss of momentum going into the second season. The Pop-up Book of Terrifying Things appears, and feels like it was always there. And we began to get a sharper picture of how Leland's profound weakness co-exists with the real dangers that he presents.

Time for some new kids.
