Evil moving from CBS to Paramount+

Variety

The supernatural drama starring Mike Colter and Katja Herbers is expected to be one of three series on the move from CBS to Paramount+, along with SEAL Team and Clarice. Evil would be Robert and Michelle King's second series on Paramount+, after The Good Fight. According to Variety's Kate Aurthur, "as the months have ticked by, Evil fans — and they are a passionate group — have fretted about the show’s lack of a premiere date, which was expected to be in the spring — and the timing of when Evil Season 2 will premiere on Paramount Plus is still being worked out, sources say. The ratings for Evil were strong enough on CBS to merit an early renewal a month after it premiered in Sept. 2019, but when the whole show dropped on Netflix in October 2020, it became a viral, buzzy hit." Evil's last episode, its Season 1 finale, aired in January 2020.
