There are many reasons to like ABC’s mystery-thriller series ‘Emergence’, which will be premiering its finale in exactly a week from now. While tonight’s episode ‘Killshot Pt. 1’ offered a good amount of entertainment with its varied elements, viewers couldn’t stop discussing Jo Evan’s comical chops on social media, which is trending #Emergence.

Episode 12 saw Jo Evans (Allison Tolman) engage in her usual adventures as she and Agent Ryan Brooks (Enver Gjokaj) try to trace Helen (Rowena King) while sharing a few brief but cheesy romantic moments. Although the latest offering of 'Emergence' was packed with enthralling scenes, what highlighted the episode was Jo’s customary humor.

One fan wrote, “My favorite line of the series!!! @Allison_Tolman delivering the line amazingly!!! Hilarious and funny!!! #Emergence”

“Reason #50 why Jo Evans is a fantastic series lead: Her response to that *REDACTED* #Emergence,” another added.

Only Jo knows how to crack her audience up even when the world is on the verge of destruction. Be it for what she said to Agents Brooks about being ‘dramatic’ after their first kiss or the manner in which she dismisses Benny’s request to help her, the viewers can’t stop raving about her sense of humor.

One of the tweets read, “@Allison_Tolman your line deliveries never fails to get me laughing as much as the actual lines do. @EmergenceABC #Emergence.”

Meanwhile, the rest of the fans are eagerly waiting for the series finale as ‘The Killshot Pt. 1’ ended with a major cliffhanger.

“Can we time jump to next Tuesday to see what happens!? Glad we only have to wait a week! But also quite worried that there's still going to be a massive cliffhanger! #Emergence #RenewEmergence,” said a fan.

“Can't believe that next week is the season finale of #Emergence it went by way too fast! So many questions still to be answered. #Emergence,” wrote a curious fan.

The finale episode of ‘Emergence’, ‘Killshot Pt. 2’, airs on January 28 on ABC.
