TD_washingtonredskins Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 I'm wondering if they didn't introduce too much? I am enjoying it and it's easy to watch, but it just seems like the witch element might not be necessary. They could have gone with the American Folklore angle and then gone with apocalyptic themes later in the season. But we already have the 4 horsemen, resurrected witches, etc. I think I want the figure that appears in the woods/jail cells to be in it more. Nice and creepy.

Warhead36 Posted September 25, 2013 Share Posted September 25, 2013 2nd episode wasn't as good as the pilot, but I'll say the show has done enough to get me to watch for the forseeable future. I just hope it doesn't turn into crime of the week(or demon of the week, whatever). That's what buried Alcatraz for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldysknzfn1 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Yay! I found the Sleepy Hollow thread!

While there will be that overall mythology with the headless horseman and all; I think each week will have the demon/crime of the week. I think they can balance both as last night's show was far better than the previous weeks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Yeah yesterday was better. I'll watch for the rest of the season unless something really dumb happens. $5 says the Orlando Jones character is some kind of mole secretly working for the evil demon cult.

Mr. S Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 You might not like the show then. While there will be that overall mythology with the headless horseman and all; I think each week will have the demon/crime of the week. I think they can balance both as last night's show was far better than the previous weeks, It seems they are trying to make it a bit like Grimm; a few long-term plot lines but a new "monster" to deal with each week so to speak, all of which are based on literature/mythology. I think the show is doing well so far and definitely has the potential to run a few seasons. However I hope they don't make it like a Grimm clone as then the only difference is having the Sleepy Hollow angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've been thinking the same thing. That would be too obvious...I kinda think he's either a "neutral", or on the side of good. But he definitely knows more then he lets on.

The Evil Genius Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 I missed John Cho's crazy cop in the last episode. I wonder if he's done..or if he will keep popping up this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillUnknown Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/10/03/sleepy-hollow-renewed-for-season-2?utm_campaign=ign+main+twitter&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social In a big surprise (given it's so atypical for how network TV operates), Sleepy Hollow has been renewed for Season 2, just three weeks after its debut. The show has been a clear success for FOX and held up well against the competition, but what most were expecting was a back-nine order to extend the season to a full 22 episodes, not a quick renewal.This sort of "renew right away" move is usually reserved for cable, with HBO among those who do it often. Sleepy Hollow in fact won't have a back-nine order and will keep its season set at 13 episodes, with 13 episodes also ordered for Season 2 - another way in which FOX is now following a more cable-type model.

88Comrade2000 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Actually, that's a smart thing Fox did. 22 episodes, there's usually some filler episodes that suck. This way, we get another season next year of 13 quality episodes. It wasn't lucky for the folks at "Lucky 7"; canceled after 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Yeah good move by Fox, I'm liking this show so far plus it's Monday night so not like there's a ton of great competition. I don;t watch the Voice or DWTS, but most people I know who do record it and watch it later so they can skip over commercials and bad acts.

LittleTinyUnbornBaby Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Ive actually really liked this show so far, better than I expected it to be and the story line is actually compeling and not too fantasyish and completely out there, I like that they have brought in true historical things like the salem witch trials etc. and used them with the fantasy aspect of the show. The one thing that kills me with this show, as it does with every movie/show with him in it, is John Cho, I can't help but think of him as Harold, it's so hard for me to distinguish him as a different character in any show or movie, like Star trek and Go On....

Riggo-toni Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 After getting hooked by the pilot, and disappointed by Ep 2 and 3, last night's show was a strong rebound. Loved how they tied in the Hessians and the Tea Party with the apocryphal Testament of Solomon, a book that credited Solomon's control over demons as slaves to build the first temple. It was apparently very popular text in the 1st century and was alluded to by Jesus when he performed an exorcism. For a geek like me, this was what I've been hoping the show would do - mix historical tidbits with arcane references to apocalyptic texts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConcordNCSkinsFan Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I wasn't expecting much from the show when the I saw the promos back in the summer. I honestly just started watching it because the actress that plays Abby Mills is gorgeous. The show has surprised me and has a much deeper storyline then I expected.

elkabong82 Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I like the show more as it progresses. Very surprised by this show being good, as it looked hokey from the previews. It's like National Treasure: Halloween edition, lol. Nice to have a good show on Monday again, it and of course Blacklist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacase Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 This is one of my favorite shows. I had high hopes for Agents of Shield, but it seems to be getting worse. On the other hand Sleepy hollow seems to be getting better. The second episode was weak, but the third and fourth have been increasingly better. I am loving Nicole Beharie and Lydia Greenwood, I can't wait to see Greenwood's role expand. The more twists they add in the better. I can see this staying around for awhile. Edit: Looks like Sleepy Hollow got picked up for season 2 already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantarace17 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Yeah I would have to agree Sleepy Hollow is becoming better than Shield which I am surprised at. My wife has already bailed on shield but loves sleepy hollow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacase Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Another solid episode...looks like we have a 3 week break before it comes back. The return of the headless horsemen! Looks like they are going to be introducing other groups. I really love this show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
