SEASON 2 TRAILER: Can't wait!

Fingers crossed ...Putting my spicy man meat into a mother daughter sandwich...

Bruce's appearance on Conan's Comic-Con coverage - he uses a certain deadite-slaying appendage to cut a sandwich. Fingers crossed ...Putting my spicy man meat into a mother daughter sandwich... I have to admit, I chuckled quite a bit at that line.

Comic-Con 2016 Panel:

Lee f***ing Majors? What?! Wooooooooooooow!

[MinionZombie]

Lee f***ing Majors? What?! Wooooooooooooow! And Ted Raimi's back in the series, too. Majors as Ash's Dad, Raimi as Ash's best friend from childhood. Should be fun!

[MinionZombie]

Lee f***ing Majors!!!! Wow! I know of Lee Majors, but I never watched The Six Million Dollar Man, or The Fall Guy, etc, so for me personally - and with his history of appearing in the Evil Dead movies, I'm personally most excited for Ted Raimi's return. But objectively speaking, I get the excitement and surprise over Lee Majors appearing in AvED. Going on interviews and the CC panel he looks like he fits right in with the cast. It'll be cool to see Ash's dad and where Ash got all of his personality from.

Renewed for a third season! Awesome!!! http://dailydead.com/ash-vs-evil-dea...-third-season/ Here's what Bruce had to say about it: I'll take five [seasons]. No one's gonna burn out at five. I got this a lot, "Hey, so Burn Notice ran, like, five seasons right?" I'm like, “No, it ran seven.” They were like, "Oh, oh." And what it really meant was they stopped watching after five. And every shows has a burnout factor. The cast burns out, the show gets too expensive, writers run out of ideas, viewership declines. Every show has its arc. We want to end strong, and I want to put together a multiple year plan so that the writers know where this is going, the actors know where it's going, and the studio knows where it's going. Everyone should know where everything is going all the time, in my opinion. I like the last part in particular - aiming to have a plan and know where you want it to go.

^^ I'm guessing what they've done thusfar for Season 2 is enough to make the studio happy to greenlight 3 then!

^^ I'm guessing what they've done thusfar for Season 2 is enough to make the studio happy to greenlight 3 then! Yeah, there must be projections and numbers and such going into it, as well as positive internal response to what's being made, I'm assuming. It's only just got going again on the air, but episode one continued in the same fun vein, so I'm happy.

It’s with great sadness I share that Ash Vs Evil Dead has been cancelled.... http://www.joblo.com/movie-news/star...il-dead-275-02 Well, it’s been a hell of a ride while it lasted! Here’s hoping for a stellar complete series Blu Ray in the near future....

Fuck sake, Starz. The makers were concerned about that, but from what I've heard they've said that if Season 3 was going to be the last then it ends in such a way that the audience won't be left hanging. It's a damn shame, and while Season 3 hasn't quite been up to the standard of the first two seasons on it's own scale, I still look forward to every episode and enjoy the heck out of it. Good for Starz to make it happen in the first place, but it does seem like Starz as a channel is struggling to merit a place in the market. If you don't have enough programming what's the point in splashing out yet another six bucks a month (on top of the myriad other monthly bills) just for the sake of one, maybe two shows, that you like on said channel? Feels like the show hasn't had a wide enough access to an audience, but then again how many channels would allow for such content? Double-edged sword. Here in the UK it doesn't air anywhere, so you have to resort to nefarious means to see it, but at the very least we get it released on DVD and now Blu-Ray boxsets around about October, so I've gleefully added them to my collection.

Seems to me they ended each season in such a way that they could work as the series finale? Even though I love the show and this is sad news, I'm kinda looking at it as a half glass full scenario. It's really a miracle that we got these three seasons at all. If you would've told our younger selves that there would be a highly successful zombie TV series, as well as an Evil Dead TV series with Campbell in the lead, we would have never believed it. Reminds me of the old days when we were just clamoring for ANYTHING from this genre.
