Three Reasons We Need a Third Season of Stan Against Evil
I lied. There’ll be more than three. But I liked the symmetry of 3/3
Shovels up, y’all.

Shovels up.
For newbies, that’s our hashtag call to arms. Or no hashtag. You’re making me go off track about the theme of this Stan Against Evil article.
For those not in the know, Stan Against Evil is a romcom about a man and his shovel, trying to make it in the big city. the story of what would happen if Archie Bunker(sans the racism) lived in a Fawlty Towersesque world, married Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but Buffy died secretly protecting him. Also, they had a kid. That’s Stan(John C. McGinley).
Why We Need More
What other show has blueberry picking by a girl named Denise(played adorably clueless by Deborah Baker Jr.) that leads to stray demons being brought home?
With blueberries, you’d think a ghost would follow her home. But noooo.

Where else can you get Steven Ogg as a werepony? Last I heard, he’s on some little show about talking bread. Pfft. Like that’ll last.
WEREPONY.

Any time John C. McGinley is not regularly on TV, the quality of all shows go down. It is a scientific fact. I can’t prove that, but it just is.
Cool Cops
Where else can you get cops so cool without trying. Look at these two:
She has style, she has grace, she’s got something on her face.

Evie Barret(Janet Varney) and Leon Drinkwater(Nate Mooney) deal with far more crap and demons than other cops. Of course, 20% of Evie’s crap comes from Leon. Yes-There’s that one on the talking bread show that loves coral, but that’s different. He has an entire gang of badass fighters.
What I’m Trying To Say
This show has an irreverant humor that has the balls to point out the absurdity of it’s world while still having incredible group chemistry and heart. That is rare. Like a perfect pearl, or anyone that can fully explain exactly what that reality show family’s talent actually is. That is why the show needs support. Let IFC know you care. TWEET IFC, use the hashtag!
And you know what else? Kevin(Played by some guy named Dana Gould)has so many more intriguing stories from his past for us to hear. for the other characters to ignore/interrupt/talk over.
It’s important that this man be ignored.

And that is more important than any singing contest or crime procedural show. Or one with doctors. Doctor shows, amiright?
Marcus Welby was the last great doctor on television.
