Kings Reveal 'Evil' Season 5 Courtroom Demon Plans
30 Jul
Summary
- Showrunners planned more demons infecting the courthouse.
- Season 5 would have explored the court system's demonic nature.
- The Kings aimed to satirize their 'Good Wife' and 'Good Fight' shows.

Robert and Michelle King, creators of "Evil," disclosed plans for a hypothetical fifth season that would have intensified the series' supernatural themes within a legal context. The proposed season aimed to explore the inherently demonic aspects of the court system, with demons actively infecting the courthouse and a greater involvement from the character Kristen.
This direction for "Evil" was conceived as a satirical commentary on the Kings' earlier successful legal and political dramas, "The Good Wife" and "The Good Fight." "The Good Wife" ran for seven seasons, concluding in 2016, while "The Good Fight" completed six seasons on streaming. The Kings also recently returned to this universe with "Elsbeth" in 2024.
