SEASON PREMIERE
SUNDAY: Creepy, kooky, sexy and often as funny as it is scary, the supernatural/spiritual inheritor of the X-Files throne is back for a third season of mirthfully malicious chills. The dizzying premiere plunges newly ordained priest David (Mike Colter) into a private hell of temptation after his fateful kiss with fellow paranormal investigator Kristen (Katja Herbers). She has her hands full at home with the return of her husband (Patrick Brammell), while her demonic nemesis Leland Townsend (Michael Emerson) continues to troll her daughter Lexis (Maddy Crocco), though she’s hardly a pushover. At work, David, Kristen and skeptic Ben (Aasif Mandvi) observe a scientific experiment involving an attempt to weigh the human soul at the moment of death. “I’m a medical mystery,” chortles Wallace Shawn as a priest who unexpectedly survives the trial. As usual with Evil, there are no convenient or cozy answers.
