    Gore, Action, Humour all things you would expect from this franchise. Bruce Campbell delivers what you'd expect from his character, and Pablo & Kelly are bad ass and instantly likeable. This series is lots of fun and its a shame that they've decided not to make additional seasons. I think even a Pablo/Kelly spin off would work, they are great characters in their own right.

    Season 2 of 'Ash Vs Evil Dead (2016)' is almost immediately a different beast to the first, with the changes in style and tone being subtle but apparent right from the get-go. Indeed, if the first was 'Evil Dead 2 (1987)', then this is definitely a gorier 'Army Of Darkness (1992)'. It uses its comedy, which is much sillier and over-the-top here, to create wacky and increasingly ridiculous situations as opposed to simply placing these charismatic characters in inherently scary yet otherworldly scenarios and having the laughs come from how they react to them. The difference might not seem that big, but it actually is. It means that there are less proper scares this time, at least in the first half, and that the balance between comedy and horror isn't quite as fine-tuned because the emphasis is totally placed on slapstick tomfoolery, with buckets of blood substituting actual horror, instead of the genuinely creepy set-pieces that included the odd one-liner as releases from the tension (instead of the old cat gag). This issue subsides somewhat in the second half with the introduction of the big-bad, who is a unique villain and brings with him the opportunity for some more suspenseful episodes. The new style isn't entirely unsuccessful either, though there are more jokes that fall flat on their faces this time. The cast are just as charismatic as ever, with Campbell remaining the star and the newly introduced players making their mark in satisfying ways. The story is also somewhat improved in term of its structure and pacing, though its final two episodes seem like a non-sequitur compared to what came before and its last moments make little sense in general. The ending is an improvement, though, as it caps off the series in a satisfying way while leaving some room for a third season. It's much better than the quite bitter non-ending of the Ghostbeaters' first outing. In total, this series isn't as good as the first but it finds its footing as something slightly different, which prevents it from feeling stale. It is almost equally as enjoyable and there are some fantastic sequences, including a truly crass but satisfying extended 'fart joke', that stand out in memory long after the show is over. Its an enjoyable ride from beginning to end that's usually very funny, still sometimes scary and always a blast to watch. 8/10

    A hell of a joyride - best show around for the real gorehound and lover of bad humor. Three seasons of finest entertainment. Hope, the show will get more seasons, maybe on another channel, as the last episode of season 3 got a nice cliffhanger.Anyway, this show is proof - the most inventive and strongest shows are many times just not made for the masses. Bruce Campbell and his fine crew beat easy everything that is contemporary aired under the label of horror and/or comedy.Of course, it is very sad to see what kind of mediocre and boring shows are renewed, and this excellent show gets cancelled. But anyway, thanks for the hellride - and hopefully the adventures of Ashy-Slashy will be someday continued. Bruce Campbell - easy one of the finest comedy actors around. Bravo!
