From an article in Entertainment Weekly, Shock Till You Drop reports that the show will be a "half-hour horror comedy where Ash takes a road trip to banish his demons alongside two young helpers and his trusty boomstick."

As to why they made a television show instead of a new movie, Campbell touches on that subject as well pointing out that another film would have been very expensive but with a TV show, the could deliver on exactly what the fans really wanted to see. It's all about those dolla, dolla bills ya'll.

Don't expect all sunshine and roses however. Ash has some issues. Which is to be expected after years of watching your friends turn into horrible flesh devouring monsters who you then have to kill. On Ash of the new show Campbell says that new Ash is a "war vet" and that he doesn't want to talk about the things that happened to him.

Groovy.

The show will premiere on Starz in 2015.
