As a seasoned gamer who has witnessed the rise and fall of countless digital worlds, I can’t help but draw parallels between the gaming universe and the realm of television production. The cancellation of shows like NCIS: Hawai’i, So Help Me Todd, and CSI: Vegas feels akin to losing a beloved game expansion pack that never got released. However, the unique case of Evil is akin to completing a game on my favorite difficulty setting – challenging, but satisfying.
As we gear up for the 2024 TV season’s resumption with autumn shows, there are still many who lament the series that concluded or were axed earlier this year. This includes reflecting upon numerous CBS and Paramount+ productions that have ceased, such as NCIS: Hawai’i, So Help Me Todd, and Evil. Yet, while the finales of the first two series left both viewers and actors distraught, the conclusion of Evil offers a unique viewpoint on the entire situation.
As a dedicated gamer, springtime saw CBS taking some tough decisions, cancelling long-running shows like “NCIS: Hawai’i”, “So Help Me Todd”, “CSI: Vegas”, and even “Evil” – which was previously on CBS but now airs on Paramount+. These cancellations left a significant dent in the gaming community. But here’s a bit of good news: “Evil” got a four-episode extension, allowing the creators to wrap up the series with a planned finale. The show’s creator, Michelle King, shared with Deadline that while they’re saddened by the end, they’re proud of how they chose to conclude their story.
Regarding the emotional aspect, I can relate to Robert’s feelings as they resonate with me too. However, beyond the sadness, I also experienced a sense of pride in our work and gratitude for having the opportunity to produce those final four episodes that brought the series to a conclusion successfully.
The final episode of “Evil” was released for streaming on August 22 for Premium+ subscribers, which marks approximately six months since its cancellation announcement. Consequently, this meant that the cast and crew were aware they were wrapping up production, and that these last four episodes would serve as the show’s conclusion.
As a devoted viewer, I often find myself disappointed when a series is abruptly cut short before it can properly wrap up its storylines. This was the case with both “NCIS: Hawai’i” and “So Help Me Todd.” Usually, they’re axed after a season has been produced and broadcast, or immediately following the end of the season. The showrunner, King, addressed this issue, saying…
Absolutely! It’s refreshing when a series doesn’t abruptly end without resolution, as many do. I appreciate that ours didn’t, and I feel content with how it all turned out.

Although the cancellation undeniably brought sadness, King acknowledged this sentiment. However, it’s uncommon to express gratitude when a series concludes prematurely, especially one that desires to continue.
Upon learning that the show So Help Me Todd was axed, fans swiftly launched a campaign in protest, with feelings of anger and sorrow dominating. Conversely, for the series NCIS: Hawai’i, its lead actress Vanessa Lachey was taken aback to hear that her show had been terminated. The news left both viewers and cast members disheartened as the series finale left many questions unanswered and a frustrating cliffhanger.
As a gamer, I’d put it this way: Even though ‘Evil’ didn’t choose to wrap up its story, Michelle King ensured that it did so with dignity. She was content because they managed to provide a “satisfying conclusion” for the series.
It was important for us to provide a satisfying conclusion to the story, one that honored both the characters and the audience. This didn’t mean we wanted tragic endings or character deaths, but rather a fitting resolution without the permanence of death as an endpoint.
Though the creator of the series intended the ending to be melancholic and poignant, there’s still cause for celebration because they had the chance to conclude the show on their own terms. Of course, it would have been wonderful if the series continued with another season, but given the circumstances, the way they wrapped up was impressive.
Regardless of the situation, it’s always disappointing when something gets canceled. However, the impact can be softened if there’s time to prepare for it and shape the conclusion as desired. In this case, the creators managed to do just that, ensuring their show ended on a note they were satisfied with. That’s why the cancellation of their series is being viewed differently compared to other shows canceled by CBS or Paramount+.
