The Guardian on Friday that he is less than pleased with how the April 10 series finale played out, saying the final episode took him “aback” and lamenting that it was “bowing to convention.”SPOILERS for the series finale:Everything appears to be ending on a high note as Villanelle (Jodie Comer) and Eve (Sandra Oh) finally share a real kiss — until the final moments when Villanelle is gunned down and killed, with Eve left screaming.
