I actually started watching this today, I'm a few episodes in so far and quite enjoying it.

Reminds me a little of Preacher, perhaps a little more light hearted? I'd recommend it to fans of said show from what I've seen, worth giving a shot if you enjoy supernatural style horror TV series also.

3-4 eps in I'd place it as a 6.5-7 out of 10.

It's not far off in premise, I'd argue it's executed better and Kevin Bacon is brilliant as is the woman playing his mother and one or two others.

Episodes aren't super long, around 25-30 mins (8 in total) depending and without too much useless fluff/padding. It becomes darker in tone and less comedic (and I don't mean silly hehehe teen funny, there is comedy but it's on the darker side) in the latter half.

I've just finished the season and I'd be up for more, don't go looking for anything overly deep but it's a fun horror romp that doesn't ask for much of your time.

Watched first episode last night and it reminds me of Preacher mixed with Ash vs Evil Dead.

Only being 25 - 30 min a episode works well with the flow too.
 
Miles better than Preacher, but that's not a difficult achievement...
First season was quite watchable, but going forward they'll have to keep it engaging without upping the ante every time, or they'll just peak and then tumble into failure like so many other programmes.
 
Not surprised it's been cancelled as it wasn't the greatest, thought it was ok but didn't think it was good enough for a 2nd season even though they had lined it up with the ending.

That being said some of the dross that has been renewed recently it does make you wonder what the requirements are to get renewed.
