* Warning: This story contains spoilers about the finale of Killing Eve.
Stephen King is among the many fans raving after Killing Eve's first season came to thrilling end last night.
The show, written by Fleabag's Phoebe Waller-Bridge and based on a novel, follows a wayward serial killer called Villanelle(Jodie Comer), and Eve (Sandra Oh), the detective trying to catch her.
Screening here on TVNZ on Demand, the first season climaxed last night with a scene in which Eve finally tracked Villanelle to her Paris apartment.
While it appeared their attraction to each other might finally be realised, Eve instead stabbed Villanelle while they lay together on a bed.
Villanelle managed to escape, the series ended.
The show had received rave reviews throughout the season, with many calling it the best show on TV, thanks to its quirky sense of humour and moody musical score.
Just watched the finale of #KillingEve. It was phenomenal. Rarely a show can hold this level of suspense for the duration of a single episode, and somehow they have been able to maintain it for an entire season. Thanks, @BBCAMERICA. pic.twitter.com/m3i16SpKwC

I had forgotten about the knife too! I was delightfully shocked. #KillingEve yes I'm rewatching the finale. I drifted to sleep thinking about them kissing and woke up doing the same. :D
