Sleepy Hollow

Guess what just got renewed for a second season already. :D

Sleepy Hollow has turned out to be such a pleasant surprise. I originally didn't know much about it until I saw many people getting psyched up for it before the premiere, and decided to check it out to see if it was worthwhile. Oh, it's certainly worth every while. There's the interaction between Ichabod and Abbie, which after only three episodes there's already that chemistry for a stronger bond with them. I can just imagine how it's gonna be further down the road. Think this like a paranormal version of Elementary, Ichabod is the Sherlock to Abbie's Joan in that sense with their relationship thus far, and it's utterly delightful. Plus there's Ichabod versus modern society, and that's simply entertaining and amusing, especially when he starts on with his commentary and ranting. I could watch him doing that all the time about random mundane everyday things that we often take for granted. Like, his reaction to donuts and taxes? To the energy drink? Priceless, tbh. And of course there's the creepy factor and the mythology of the show, so I'm curious to see where this story is headed and how the characters will evolve and be involved with everything that is happening.

YAYNESS!!! :D

I'm quite enjoying it :) And at least Fox is doing something RIGHT this time around and keeping it <3

When I heard that the show had a strong opening during its premiere, I knew that somehow it would get renewed sooner or later, since networks care about the numbers and all. I'm hoping that the show continues getting stronger (both in ratings and in the story.)

Hmm, maybe I'll have to give this another try eventually. The whole apocalypse thing had me rolling my eyes and changing the channel in the first ep, I'll admit. I'm surprised they renewed it so early.

Yeah, at this point anything media does regarding the apocalypse seems overdone. Though I can overlook it if they go down an interesting route with the mytharc they're introducing. But the main draw for me is the characters, which I feel are the strongest point of the show.

I'm not 100% sold on Sleepy Hollow yet but the third episode had just enough in it to keep me watching. I'm now going to go through November sweeps and see how I feel about it.

It has great potential. I think the majority of its strength lies with its characters. There's just a lot of great chemistry between them (Abbie and Ichabod, Abbie and her sister Jenny, etc) that it's kind of fascinating watching their interactions with each other and seeing it evolve.
