I don't know...

1. Has dark hair
2. Is in show business

Sounds like she could be Jewish to me.

The fact that she's still carrying the meat tenderizer when they approach the compound was loving gold.

Hey, Ash gets the shotgun and chainsaw as signature weapons, Kelly has her meat tenderizer. :black101:

I am so confused by Amanda.

She was awful until this episode, then suddenly magic happened and Ash went old-school with the hitting on her while in mortal danger.

Amanda is good now? How is this even...

Maybe Ash could have prevented all of this by hitting on the Evil in the first place.

So, something that's been bugging me. In the very first episode, the deadite that killed her partner said "We know who you are!". Is there significance to that which I'm missing or was it foreshadowing that no one seems to be talking about?

Don't forget that after that, the Evil pointed her in the direction of Ash. Ruby also had an interest in her

Something is up with Amanda whether she knows it or not.

I would guess something about her bloodline and the closing of the portals with the dudes talked about in the bookshop ep, or possibly her being the real el heffe to close the portals

if this were a normal show that is; who knows what they're really going to do at this point

perhaps shes the next el heffe

Oh man I am so hype about the cabin.

I want Ash to bust in there like he knows exactly what he's in for. Like, the first thing he does should be kicking down the door, shooting that drat deer head, and then smashing the mirror with the butt of his shotgun.

Then grinding the shards to dust under his boots.

Can't wait to see Ash get clowned on by his own body parts again. The hand scenes in ED2 are some of the finest acts of pure stoogery ever committed to film.

I figure the hand jumps on a rat trap, but instead of getting caught, it gets launched into Ash's balls.

My favorite tidbit about Evil Dead 2 is how they had to re-record the sound over that scene because the crew couldn't suppress their laughter :allears:

Yes, that sure would have been a neat trick. Filming an episode that's filled with the most complicated / expensive thing to animate in the whole show, then releasing it for free on the internet. Why didn't they think of that?

I'm really not sure what Starz are expecting from the ratings. The critical acclaim has been great, but the show only seems to be getting 400k-450k viewers a week. We may all have to order Starz to keep this show going.

Don't get me wrong I don't want to be all doom and gloom on the ratings, They might be the numbers Starz is looking for, I just don't know. Quotes like this from a Vanity Fair article give me hope, "Given the notoriety of the “Evil Dead” film franchise, Starz had no trouble selling “Ash Vs. Evil Dead” to TV outlets in more than 100 territories worldwide."
So the actual ratings on Starz may not mean anything to them if they are making money selling the show to other outlets.

Ratings on premium channels don't matter. Subscriptions matter.

Starz obviously saw an upswing in subs going into the start of the season and were able to reasonably attribute it to the show which is why it got greenlit for a second season so soon.

Starz also has direct metrics for streaming and unlike a non-premium channel, streaming matters JUST as much as non-streaming since you need a sub to do it and there are no ads.

Finally, Starz opening up subs on Amazon will likely be huge for the show since there are a ton of cord cutters out there that had no legal way to watch the show before now.

Perhaps it's in the nature of television. Just waves in space.
Starz is also appealing to a bunch of crowds all at once, as evidence by all the commercials for their other shows right before Ash.

They have DaVinci's Demons for the middle-age club who loves The DaVinci Code, they have the dancing show for the Pretty Little Liars crowd, etc.

Episode 8 may be the best episode so far.

It swings more horror than comedy. I love this show but I do think it needs to have a few more serious horror elements in it.
