  1. Sword fights, hate/love, revenge, treachery, political intrigue, disfunctional families! I enjoyed it!
  2. I'm not looking for a way back; however I did find a new series that I'm enjoying and has helped with getting over Sleepy Hollow. 'Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries'. It's an Aussie series. Very good dynamic between Miss Fisher and the Inspector. The other characters are also well done.
  3. I've spent the last week recovering from a knee operation. As a matter of fact I watched the final in a hospital on pain melds. I've been in recovering, excersising and working with my therapist. I've watched a lot of the old interviews from the original creators and producer and watched interviews from Tom And Nicole. What gets me the most and what saddens me is to see the joy they all had at the beginning; the delight they all had in making and presenting this project. Then to see the aftermath. The destruction. I really resent that on their behalf and mine (ours).
  4. I like Tom Mison and I will watch him in any vehicle he ends up in except Sleepy Hollow. For me and maybe for me alone the brand is tainted. As far as I'm concerned, Tom had nothing to do with what TPTB have done with the show and to Nicole. But Ichabod Crane should relocate somewhere else and the show come up with another name. IMO, Racism killed this show.
  5. Yes! I am here for Crane and Abbie and they delivered. The best episode in a long while. The hands. Very sensual. I didn't mind Jenny, Joe or Sophie. They added texture. Wow, can't wait 'till next week. Nicole is a terrific actress.
  6. Another new character for Sleepy Hollow. As much as I still like this show, I wish we had more compelling plots. Mid season ending was in MO just so-so. More Abbie disappearing to parts unknown. Hopefully the new episodes will help bring back the excitement. http://tvline.com/2015/12/24/sleepy-hollow-charles-aitken-cast-season-3-franklin-enemy/ Also Orlando Jones interview. http://tvline.com/2015/12/12/sleepy-hollow-orlando-jones-video-explains-exit-fired/
  7. Great episode! Seems like all the pieces are starting to come together. I'm wondering though if Sophia was working as closely with Nevins as it seems what does she know about the Shard and about Pandora and the demons and other mysticism in SH. If she knows, what does Daniel know? He always seemed like he was hiding something. This is getting more intriguing. Bodes well for the rest of the episodes. I can only hope this leads to a 4th season.
  8. Is this 'Sleepy Hollow Underground'? I'll join you all here and confess my love for this show. I'm not a fan of SBR and wonder how long Ichabod will be enamored of Zoe; but I'm sticking with the show. However, as much as I enjoy Ichabod, I must see Captain Crane soon!
  9. I wonder if Ichabod knows about this: http://youtu.be/XYM2azeGmBA? Interesting find, a Jefferson designed chemistry lab. Yes, she is. Her absence made made Thusday's episode a lot more cohesive.
  10. I really liked this episode. The excitement I was missing was there 10-fold. The flash back to Cranes Eton days was done without taking us out of the story. A lot more like S1. And I really liked the new girl whose going to help Ichabod with his citizenship. It looks like Daniel has plans for Abbie. Not sure about her plans; she's still keeping them close. Loved Jenny and Joe together; but hope they eventually join forces with Abbie and Ichabod. Pandora's monster are getting more and more intense. I'll watch it again a couple of times to pickup on what I missed. But all-in-all, well done.
  11. Thanks HalcyonDays. I hadn't read this recapper before. I had forgotten Ichabods comment about how aggressive Betsy was. I know he said he hid in a closet to avoid her; but I figured he just wasn't interested and took an easy but cowardly way out of an entanglement. In rethinking their scenes together, (I think about this show entirely too much!), the lack of chemistry can be explained by his playing out his annoyance and disliking her aggressive in you face play for him. Which kind of puts NR's interpretation in a different light. She's doing a darn fine job of playing an annoying would-be lover. I still don't care for it; but well done if that's what they're going for. (Just my opinion trying to put a positive spin on Reeds performance.) I love this show. I'm not sure what could make me stop watching it, other than losing the 3 stars.
  12. I am a great fan of Tom, Nicole and Lyndie and I still enjoy this show if only to watch those three on my screen. It may be that Lance and Zack will become favorites as well. But, boy, does this show have issues. First and foremost, as others have said, Betsy. To me it's part of the same issue Katia had, no direction. i mean I always thought a director or someone was supposed to help actors find their way through a scene. This feels like really bad Improvisation. I read somewhere that Tom and Nicole read their lines together and thought about what direction they wanted to go with their characters. Lynide probably does the same thing. This works for them because they are really good actors; unfortunately NR needs help and direction. Secondly, they need really scary monster. the 2 so far have been Okay; but kind of run of the mill monsters, imo. I'll continue to watch this show, because of it's leads and the hope hat it gets better; but I'm beginning to get a bad feeling about it's longevity. Oh and I love the fact that Nicole keeps pulling out her gun no matter what monster she faces!
  13. Hmmm, didn't see this posted yet. Love Tom. http://dailydragon.dragoncon.org/interviews/man-out-of-time-an-interview-with-tom-mison/
  14. Short interview with Nikki Reed http://www.etcanada.com/uncut/nikki+reed+joins+sleepy+hollow/video.html?v=500289603847&p=1&s=da#video No details. I'll cry Uncle if my theory falls apart!
  15. I like the time jump. The show needs to make a strong statement from the start to minimize the nonsense of S2. Nonsense that is still in everyone's mind. Doesn't mean they can't have some back story to include Abbie's journey to Quantico. Even Ichabod's sorrow about his family in a very brief way (Imo). This show is nothing without both Witnesses. Tom Mison is terrific as Ichabod Crane. Nicole Beharie is brilliant as Abigail Mills. If either one of them were not there I would not watch the show. Also, this show cannot write for every individual fan. What a chaotic mess that would be. Hopefully the producers, writers and Show Runner will take the best path forward to make the show as wonderful as it was in S1. This is one of the few shows of this genre I've watched consistently. I quit on Lost, Fringe, The Leftovers. And I'm about to stop watching Whispers. But loved Forever. (Uhmm, I'm not sure the genre is the same for these show; but they aren't the same as the shows on the Food Channel and HGTV ;)). So it may be that I don't know how these types of shows normally run. Here's my one demand though, lol. Please make Ichabod a combination of modern day Ichabod and Captain Crane with emphasis on the Captain.
