Confinement - S2-E5
Continuity mistake: Ruby asks Ash where the the Kandarian Dagger is. He says that it was confiscated by the police. In the previous episode, she had and used it, and they have not interacted in the intervening time period.
Ash vs Evil Dead (2015)
Starring: Bruce Campbell, Jill Marie Jones, Dana DeLorenzo, Ray Santiago
Continuity mistake: During the fight between the deadite woman and Kelly in Ash's trailer, the deadite's fingernails change from long to short in one shot.
Revealing mistake: The woman becomes possessed while the police are attempting to arrest her. She turns her head around and cracks her shoulders so she can walk at them backwards. They did not change her hand positions, so her right hand is where her left should be and vice versa. (00:11:00)
Trivia: Almost all of the rock songs in the soundtrack (which are primarily songs Ash listens to on the radio) are from the 1970's and 1980's. This was done on purpose, to help illustrate how Ash has been stuck in a state of emotional arrested development since his original adventures - he hasn't really grown as a person since.
Trivia: "Ash vs Evil Dead" originally began its life as a fourth film in the original "Evil Dead" series. However, so much potential material was written, that instead of a movie, producers Sam Raimi and Robert Tapert began shopping the project around as a potential TV-series. It was finally picked up by Starz and ran for three seasons.
Trivia: While the series contains numerous references to "The Evil Dead" and "Evil Dead II: Dead by Dawn", it contains virtually no overt references to the third "Evil Dead" film, "Army of Darkness." This is due to an issue with the rights to the third film, as they are owned by a different company than the series and the first two films.
Question: Question about the franchise in general: would crowd funding be a viable method to finance new installments?

Answer: Series creator Sam Raimi has said that there are three new ideas to continue the franchise, but there's no other information available at this time. Crowd funding could possibly fund another film, sure. But it's such a well-known franchise that it likely wouldn't be necessary. All we really know for sure is that the series "Ash VS Evil Dead" can't return, as it is under partial ownership by Starz, and producer Robert Tapert stated in a Q&A that they weren't interested in selling off the rights to the series. So if more "Evil Dead" is made, it likely wouldn't be a direct continuation of the series.
