TV on the Internet: Ash vs. Evil Dead- Series Finale

So it finally comes to this, eh?  The idea of us getting more Evil Dead after Army of Darkness was a long shot.

Getting a second Season was a long shot.

Getting a third Season was still a long shot.

I've reached the final Stage- Acceptance.

Let's do this thing...
In the wake of 3 Episodes worth of sudden wrap-up happening last time, a brand new Evil is loose...
...and it is big!

Things don't look good.
In spite of that, Ash and company will take one last stand to prove the mettle of man.

Nice Evil Dead callback here too, guys.
Can Ash save mankind from Evil in his final adventure?
More importantly, will we ever get any follow-up on this Ending?  I'm looking at you, Comic Books.

Seriously, we need Ash vs. Evil Dead: Season 4 as a Comic.  Make it happen.  The End (forever?).
A good, if slightly-sad end to the Series.  Did it hit my three qualifications for a good Episode?  Ash gets knocked around and kicks ass- check.  The Plot is progressed nicely and things are wrapped up- check.  The freaky monster here is here, plus some classic Deadites- check.  All in all, they hit everything nicely.  The sad note here is that there will be no Season 4, so we can only read about the possible ideas they had for it.  It looked strange and promising in the closing.  Here's hoping that Comics keep this going somehow.  This feels like a good Season Finale and, to be honest, is still a good Series Finale.  It was most likely only meant to be the former, but at least things worked out.  It would be hard to top the giant creature in this Episode, but I would have loved to see them try.  We can have Roseanne without Roseanne, so let's see what happens to the rest of the Ghost Beaters.  Given Ash's situation, it is easy to make it without Bruce if he so chooses to stay retired as Ash.  Nothing against him, by the way- he's earned the right to do it.  Besides, I'd be a dick to say mean things about his choice on his Birthday (the time of this being posted originally).  The Show was fun, bloody and ridiculous.  In other words, great TV.  As a random bonus, they name-dropped Kane as part of a Plot Point.  Way to cater to one specific audience member- I appreciate it.
A big note for the Show to go out on.  Having said that, they end on yet another strange Cliffhanger!
