Ash vs. Evil Dead (TV Series)

Evil Dead Sequel Series Ash Vs. Evil Dead Ordered by Starz for 2015 |Variety
Bruce Campbell will reprise his role as Ash for this Evil Dead sequel TV series and Sam Raimi will direct the first episode. The series will have 10 half hour episodes and will debut on Starz in 2015.

I think this is the right approach for the franchise that will also appease long time fans.

As long as it's Bruce and Sam doing their thing, I'm fine with it.

Sounds great other than we don't get Starz but hopefully it'd be on dvd.

 

[Daniel Nelms]

Wahoooo!! Ok I'll have to order Starz then.

Maybe the success of Walking Dead made them want to take the risk with this.

Fantastic! There's just not enough Bruce Campbell in this world.

 

[Sundowner]

Well this is pretty awesome news!

 

[Grey]

I'm okay with this.

I could do without the 12 Monkeys show though.

I can only hope that Bruce Campbell is following his own words of wisdom when doing this show.

"You have to give a ******."

I really hope they don't encumber this with too much plot. Part of the winning formula requires that you don't have to care what happens to secondary characters. I hope this show throws continuity and character arcs right out the window.

I'm honestly concerned about Bruce's ability to be involved in the action scenes. He's a little crusty, he seemed to be slowing down in "Burn Notice" and I wonder if he can really take the heavy action that the movies had. I just don't want to see another "Crystal Skull" Harrison Ford performance.

I will watch every episode.

Even if they are horrible...

Just like the movies...



Can't wait.

Hope this is good or at least a nice supplement to the movies.

I liked the remake when it came out but it lost a lot of its luster later on down the track. It just wasn't the same.

 

[Daniel Nelms]

Totally, just like Jack of Trades. If it's got Bruce then I'm on board!

I will watch every episode.

Even if they are horrible...

Just like the movies...



Can't wait.

Would be kinda cool if one episode was when he wakes up way passed his present time (alternate ending) and has to get back and then we catch up to the original ending. Awesome to see more original Evil Dead continuing! I had one of the games on Playstation, it was ok lol

I actually came up with an idea a long time ago for an Evil Dead TV series. Looking back at what I had written down, it wouldn't work very well now (especially the idea of the Xena: Warrior Princess crossover, which has been done in the Dynamite Entertainment comics recently). The story involved Ash jumping back and forth through time in an attempt to gather all the pages of the Necronomicon, so to be able to use it to get home, with the Evil Dead constantly hot on his heels throughout the jumps with them attempting to keep him from doing so, so that they could finally take over the world of the living. The only thing I can see that could work from what I had written down is Ash ending up back in time to witness the events of the first Evil Dead movie, and not remembering them (having him only remember how things played out in the opening of Evil Dead 2), and that he discovers that something occurs which resulted in the timeline being changed, resulting in only he and Linda heading to the cabin by themselves instead of Cheryl, Scotty and Shelley coming along (yeah, I know, a lame in-universe retcon explanation as to why the beginning of Evil Dead 2 is different from the events in the first film). Thank god I never really shared it with anyone. I bet my ideas would have ticked off quite a few ED fans.
