The weekly highlight: Killing Eve, Season 2. BBC America and AMC debuted this new season on April 7. Since Streamline took a week off, Im circling back to make sure I recommend this highlight of the year.

Premise: An assassin with sociopathic tendencies has a complicated relationship with the international agent pursuing her. As both women globetrot in a game of chase that blurs the line of prey and predator, they develop an emotional connection that causes dramatic and sometimes hilarious tension.

Sum-up: I ranked this as one of the best shows of 2018 . With this second season return, I feared the show would suffer from Phoebe Waller-Bridges departure from the helm and that the central pursuit storyline would stretch too long and break. The show has found a way to move forward though, with a continuation of the sense of stakes and mix of jokes that made the first season so fun.

Heads-up: The second season does still feel a bit like Waller-Bridge karaoke, as the comedic sensibility remains in the ridiculous realm, but feels less unique overall.

Will everyone be talking about this? Killing Eve has become a hit since it first debuted and eventually landed on Hulu for easy streaming. People may wait for this second season to join Hulu, but a large audience will watch it eventually.
