In October 2015, two decades after Army of Darkness and only two short years after the franchise had been seemingly rebooted, Ashley Williams (Bruce Campell) returned to the saw with Starz’ Ash vs. Evil Dead. To everyone’s surprise — deadites, included — the genre-defying series managed to last not one, not two, but three whole seasons.

It was one hell of a groovy ride, too: There was ’70s rock for days, familiar faces returned (including one iconic sister), the gore was gross, the humor relentless, great times. But, more importantly, the series completely expanded the universe, introducing fan favorite heroes in Dana DeLorenzo‘s Kelly Maxwell and Ray Santiago‘s Pablo Bolivar.

After being dragged to Hell, the Halloweenies are back on track and returning to the woods to saw through all three seasons of the underrated series. Together, they discuss the evolution (or often de-evolution) of Ash Williams, the pros and cons of streaming vs. weekly watches, the showrunner shakeups, and, you guessed it, 2005’s Kojak.
