I still remember that "Emily Goodhand" mess. Was it ever found out if “Emily Goodhand” really existed?

Oh! I see. They loved the original fairy tale. So they were always cool with The Little Mermaid not winning the Prince but instead turning first into foam and later an earthbound spirit doing good deeds for hundreds of years. My bad. 🙄

Looks like Hot Fun in the Summertime season is upon us.

Sorrows, sorrows, prayers.

Well she should because unless she's worked on well-known projects and naming names of high-profile people, who the hell is going to buy this book?

I paid attention to the A V Club website during my days of first watching Community and later Sleepy Hollow. It wasn't the readership itself that was problematic but man, the ones who posted comments. All that "First" silliness and the fact a lot of them acted like juvenile frat boys. Too many jokes about women's bodies; posters thinking that tasteless Quvenzhané Wallis Oscar joke was oh so funny. Their articles had great insight but, man, I came to hate the majority of commenters there! ETA: One thing true about the site was it had an appreciation for the offbeat and various genres. However, in the case of Sleepy Hollow, both the articles and posters seemed to care more about John Noble than Nicole Beharie. IMO, that's the audience/demographic the show shifted to go after.

@DearEvette dropping clues while sounding like Bill Paxton in my head saying: "Are you ready to go back to Sleepy Hollow's IMDB page?"

I'm beginning to believe Erza Miller is secretly a descendant of the original Warner Brothers. This side of the family tightly held on to ironclad documentation they would always have a say in the company's business, no matter to who, and how many times, it was sold.

The one question (concern?) I have about Ryan's book is from reading excerpts, it seems she spoke with a lot of those involved with Season 3. IMO, the S3 newcomers were basically the Clean Up Crew. As third season writer Leigh Dana Jackson basically lashed out at the time, Sleepy Hollow was already a mess when he got there. I'm not excusing any of their actions but being send in to "save" a show that's already reached the boiling point of anger is pretty fruitless. What I want to know is WHO and HOW Sleepy Hollow got to that point. Who was in charge starting with the second half of S1 leading into S2 that not only hated their leading lady, but the audience SHE brought with her who made Sleepy Hollow a success in the first place. I remember the show taking a turn from appealing to those of us who were their core base, to wanting A.V. Club type readers as viewers. That's when the show fell apart. Did Mo Ryan talk to those people? Because I want answers from them. I want to get to the root of what happened. I'm willing to bet the S1/S2 folk who stayed were happily whispering to S3 newbies Nicole was crazy. They were also the ones furious (yes, YOU Albert and Raven) when that Sleepy Hollow Is Cancelled Party took off on Twitter.

Holmes said the same to anyone who wanted to inspect the lab and/or devices. Theranos finally relented to let Kevin Hunter see "The Edison" but gave him an older version. When Hunter wanted to open it for examination, he was told nope, can't do that because - yes, you guessed it - "proprietary information".

I heard Cattrall filmed away from her former Sex and the City co-stars and her scene is fairly brief, so hell hasn't quite frozen over yet. Maybe a light jacket will do. LOL.

Mo Ryan better not disappoint. I've been waiting years for this day to come. Bring it!
