This is one those shows you can easily enjoy, something light hearted and not too serious, it is a shame the show was cancelled but I'm glad we at the very least have three great seasons to enjoy.

Yes, I get it that it's very similar to Ash Vs Evil Dead. That's how I've always thought of it, but it did have its charm. I was hoping that I would still get some Evil Dead fix from this show once AvED was cancelled, but this show suffered the same fate!! :( Even the same number of seasons - only 3. Each season being short (10 or so episodes) with 1/2hr episodes. I hope someone somewhere picks up this series or starts another evil dead type series. These are always a lot of fun. Too many horror shows/movies are just too serious, and not well done. This was at least well done, with likeable characters (except for Stan's daughter, who was annoying). Oh well, it was a great run while it lasted. I guess we can say we have 6 seasons of 'Evil Dead' goodness, if you combine this and AvED.

I just finished watching s01e06 and I just had to take the time out and give a very positive shout out for this great new TV show.

It looked like a goofy and low budget production to start but there would be occasional flashes of brilliance that kept it on my watch list. Thankfully I did too because the show keeps reaching new heights week after week.

The show is just fun to watch. You quickly fall in love with the actors and with the story which is probably why the episodes fell like they're getting better each week.

The previous few episodes had some great moments but this sixth episode really had me rolling at certain points. I can't wait for the rest of the season.

I recently discovered this little gem of a show on Hulu and can't get enough. I love the characters, storyline and setting. The only thing I dislike about the show is there are only 3 seasons. I really hope that either Hulu or Netflix will realize they need to make a SEASON 4. Pleeeeeeeease!!!

Willard's Mill, New Hampshire is a cursed town where in around 1700, Constable Eccles burned 172 suspected witches. Since then, every sheriff has met an early unnatural death. Stanley Miller (John C. McGinley) is the former sheriff forced to resign after an incident at his wife's funeral to the horror of his daughter Denise Miller (Deborah Baker Jr.). Single mom Evie Barret (Janet Varney) is the new sheriff. Leon Drinkwater (Nate Mooney) is the idiot deputy. Stan uncovers his wife's secret works and necklace which unbeknownst to him protected the brash cop.

This is a fun little series on IFC and I do mean small. Everybody is trying. McGinley is a solid comedic actor. He does the frustrated sarcasm very well. Varney also does frustrated very well. I enjoy this cast. It's a show with its tongue well within its cheek. It's cancelled after three short seasons.

I discovered this show the day before Halloween and binged watched the whole thing! The humor/horror mix is just right and brings out the best in all the characters. The special effects are surprisingly good for what is billed as a low-budget show. I am a long time horror fan and I am always impressed when I see a monster or creature that looks completely original. Yes, the show is campy and cheesy at times, but when done in a self-aware manner this becomes part of the fun. The story's structure is well done with a continually developing plot that still leaves room for stand-alone, monster-of-the-week type episodes that can still tie back in to the overall mythology.

My only complaint is that there isn't enough of it! I can accept a 21 minute show, but I would gladly watch a season that had twice as many episodes. Here's hoping that IFC gives us more!

Just finished Season 2 and can't wait to stream season 3 and beyond!

This is a great take on a classic storyline. A centuries-old vendetta haunts the Sherriff's of a backwoods town and manifests itself in all kinds of comical, yet just a bit scary forms. McGinley and Varney have a sweet brother-sisterly kind of relationship that is pure joy to watch, and there's a great supporting cast.

So, here's the progression I follow. I was a fan of Sarah Chalke from Rosanne, a fan of Christa Miller from The Drew Carey Show, and a fan of John C. from Platoon and Office Space. So, I gave Scrubs a chance and fell in love with it. I started watching Stan Against Evil BECAUSE I had been entertained so much by John C's character on Scrubs. I don't know what that other show is yet, but I will probably go watch it now because of John C. and Stan Against Evil.

I respect that some other reviewers may feel it's a bit to close for comfort to this Ash vs. Evil Dead, so I'm sure those same people didn't like Casino because DeNiro and Pesci had characters kind of similar to those they played in Goodfellas. You see, that's how the arts work. People see a painting by an artist or hear a song they like, and they want to see/hear/watch other works by the same artist. or they discover similar works by other artists so they become fans of that artist as well. That's why I like BB King AND Eric Clapton AND George Thorogood AND Stevie Ray Vaughn AND Johnny Lang AND Gary Clark.

Some people are saying Stan against evil is a rip off of ash vs evil dead, yes it is a similar in a lot of ways but in my opinion 10x funnier than ash. John C McGinley absolutely nailed it if you loved him as Dr Coxs in scrubs you'll love this. funniest tv show i have watched in a while

Dr Cox have to deal with annoying demons, witches, people and other stuff. Fun watch.

...that was left when Ash vs. Evil Dead was canceled. I loved Ash vs. Evil Dead and was highly disappointed when it got the axe. But at least I still have this show to get me by. It's definitely a very similar vibe and does a great job of mixing horror and comedy in a way that works very well. John C. McGinley is awesome as Stan Miller and brings a lot of the same angry sarcasm that we came to love from him on Scrubs. If you liked Ash vs. Evil Dead or just enjoy gorey horror/comedy, then I highly recommend this show.

This rather ridiculous comedy from IFC is quite entertaining. It's unfortunate it ran only twenty four episodes, and ends on an apparent cliffhanger. The cast and writing are both excellent. The only issue is that they sometimes shovel on the nonsense to the point it takes over the plotline.

The source of all Stan against Evil's problems seem to stem from it's 20 minute run time. There is no time for proper establishment of the characters, no time for establishing the world and no time for establishing the plot in a non ham-fisted way. The actors do their best, but they have very little to work with here.

The show obviously takes a lot of cues from Ash vs Evil dead, but misses the target.

Ash vs Evil Dead already had an established world and an established main character, but they still gave the pilot episode 40 minutes to get the show off the ground despite having a much simpler premise, plot wise, than Stan Against Evil tries to have.

Stan Against Evil is a mediocre show at best.

Having just returned from a five day multi-generational vacation to Niagara Falls, ON, I was looking for some quirky binge show. I wanted something fun and not too mentally or emotionally challenging. This comedy-horror show hit the spot. The special effects are cheesy in the best way. It totally adds to the humor. laughed out loud. It is the combo of good writing and excellent acting.. Sure it is like some comedy-horror movies, but the unique characters set it apart and make it worth watching. The characters are endearing, wacky, and somehow believable. Stan's daughter is the best. The costume designers did a great job on her wardrobe.

Great show with witty comments and good storyline that you can pick up at any time or episode and still enjoy the show

So "Stan Against Evil" came out in 2016. Excuse me, but has creator Dana Gould not been watching "Ash vs Evil Dead"? Did he want to make an homage to "Ash vs Evil Dead"? Or did he just blatantly rip off everything from that successful show to make "Stan Against Evil"? I do not know. I can only speculate.

Regardless, "Stan Against Evil" turned out to be an entertaining enough show for what it was. But the similarities to "Ash vs Evil Dead" were just an overshadowing factor that served as an anchor around the foot of "Stan Against Evil". I mean, heck, even the title itself is so close to "Ash vs Evil Dead" that it borders on being something that The Asylum would have put out there.

As for the characters in "Stan Against Evil", well they were well-detailed and well-fleshed out on the screen. But again, the similarities to "Ash vs Evil Dead" was just too much. Stan, who is played quite well by John C. McGinley, is an aging man with a big attitude and it seems that the entire world is just out to get him and his sly remarks.

Lets just stop to take in another similarity between the two shows; the book. There is a most vicious and gruesome book in both shows. Coincidence? I beg to differ.

The episodes though are fun and do provide good entertainment, however they seem awfully short, running at just 30 minutes each. But if you enjoyed "Ash vs Evil Dead", then you will also enjoy "Stan Against Evil", if you can look past the in-your-face-similarities between the two shows. The eight episodes of season 1 just flies by in an instant, and I do hope that they return for more than just a single season.

"Stan Against Evil" has good effects as well, which do help the show in a favorable way. A show or movie set in a horror genre needs to have good effects, as it is a make or break kind of a factor.

I enjoyed "Stan Against Evil", despite of it being a blatant rip-off of "Ash vs Evil Dead" (in my opinion). And I was more than impressed with John C. McGinley's performance. It was a blast to watch him in a show and a role such as this.

Absolutely loved this show. It's hilarious and John C McGinley is perfect for the role of Stan.

There is one thing I don't like about Stan Against Evil... the fact there's only 24 episodes!! I wish we could've gotten at least 1 more season of this show.. I feel like the ending didn't seem like a series finale but more like a season finale!

In a small town in New Hampshire, in 1693, a local sheriff burned 172 women on charges of being witches. From then until today(ish), every subsequent sheriff has tragically ended his career. And then Sheriff Stanley Miller mysteriously lived to retirement. Stanley is played by John C. McGinley, known for his role as Dr. Cox in the series "Scrubs". If you liked Perry Cox, don't miss this show, because these two characters are very similar in character and sense of humor. Janet Varney plays Evie Barret, a policewoman who comes to town for the position of new sheriff and who has to join forces with retired Stanley in order to fight the demons who are trying to get their heads. The series is something like low-budget "Ash vs. Evil Dead" meats "Sleepy Hollow", with production closer to "Todd and the Book of Pure Evil". The three seasons of eight twenty-minute episodes each are short and fast-paced enough for binge-watching the whole thing at once. As each episode brings a stand-alone story and a new demon, twenty minutes is not enough to elaborate it properly, so the whole thing seems hasty and cheap, but that's not a problem when it comes to "tongue-in-cheek" horror-comedy, full of parody and references to the world of film and television. If you liked any of the above-mentioned shows, you will enjoy this one as well.

7,5/10

And the title makes it clear Dana Gould doesn't care either. Evil Dead is its own genre and except for a movie called House from 1985 I don't recall much else in that narrow niche. Multiple zombie series, multiple vampire series, so why not multiple cheesy supernatural splatter series? John McGinley is a great choice for the lead too. I have to agree with those who say the length isn't enough.They barely have time to tell the story before its done.

Keep it coming!

This series doesn't add much to the horror show genre. The dad is an absolute jerk; the daughter is unbelievably naive (and that is being nice) and the new sheriff (why did they give her a daughter) is just there as a plot convenience. Yawn.

Gave up early on this one. Nothing new here, a poor man's Ash vs the Evil Dead. "Stan" was so annoyingly repetetive I could predict his lines by half way through ep 1. Pass.

There's nothing on television like Stan Against Evil. It's the greatest combination of comedy, horror, and dorkiness. Every episode is unique, but the overarching story is actually really amazing. Stan says some of the funniest one liners I've ever heard. Truly a gem of a show.
