There has been a lot of buzz surrounding the TV show “Killing Eve.” The show premiered in April on BBC America and ran 8 episodes ending in May. The show stars Sandra Oh as a British MI5 officer tracking an assassin that’s a bit of a psychopath, played by Jodie Comer. Ultimately, each become obsessed with each other making for a very interesting take on the cat and mouse genre.
I don’t even feel right pigeonholing this show into a genre because it breaks so many conventions. It continually surprises you, and what you expect to happen rarely ever does. The show manages to be both hilarious and gruesome at times and yet the flow feels oddly comfortable.
When the show aired it pulled it roughly 500,000 viewers an episode. However, now that the show is the talk of the TV Critics Association and it’s currently been rated 97% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes everyone is clamoring to watch it. Season 2 has already been announced, so you will want to catch up before it airs next season.
In this article, I’ll cover all the ways to watch Killing Eve without cable.

Your other option is to purchase the first season through Amazon. If you purchase it in SD, the entire season is only $13.99. If you would like to watch in HD the cost is $19.99. If you only watch a handful of cable shows a year, Amazon is a great option.
