Sleepy Hollow S2E11: “The Akeda”

SACRIFICE It’s a dark, apocalyptic and really really stormy night…And my dream from my last review of Abbie riding a motorcycle has come TRUE!  Ha! Prescience? The gang’s all here, and this is one busy episode. And that’s saying something for this show.  Abbie and Ichabod discover Henry and Moloch’s Mad as Hell plan in […]

Sleepy Hollow S2E10: “Magnum Opus”

First of all, I have to apologize to my readers for my being so late in posting this review.  For this reviewer, TV horror needed to take a back seat to the real horror of the events that occurred this week of the killing of 12 year old Tamir Rice by Cleveland police and the grand jury […]

Sleepy Hollow S2E9: “Mama”

You Are My Sunshine No longer the plight of black women on Sleepy Hollow? Is this the episode so many of us have been waiting for this season, where Abbie is front and center like she was in Season 1? Will Katrina, Henry, Abraham and Hawley overshadow Jenny and Abbie?  Or will the the Mills […]

Sleepy Hollow S2E8: “Heartless”

You Gotta Have Heart But how do you really feel? This becomes the resounding question that episode 8 asks. After last week’s reunion of Katrina and Ichabod,  Sleepy Hollow tries to further create a real marriage relationship between Ichabod and Katrina, but it seems, well, hollow, despite the mellifluous,whispery voices. Passion? Nah. Perfunctory? Yep. Lest […]

The Carnal Science Behind the Love of Fear

For myself and many of us here, this is our most favorite time of the year. I have always been drawn to the darker things. When I was a little kid my Grandpa used to call me “Spooky” because I loved to hear the same ghost stories over and over. Not much has changed, I […]

Sleepy Hollow S2E7: “Deliverance”

It’s What You Expected Nice that they aired this episode on the eve of November 4th with Abbie voting (and reminding viewers that women and blacks did not always have the right to vote: SO VOTE TODAY!) Your Sleepy Hollow public announcement is now completed. Moloch wants in this world in a bad bad way. […]

Sleepy Hollow S2E6: “And the Abyss Gazes Back”

Look Where You’re Going An episode that starts with yoga, so we can see Abbie in a state of semi-undress and Ichabod in casual modern clothing as both sweat by candlelight???  Bestill my heart! Nicole looked like she knew what she was doing, so I’m guessing she brought her mat on set enough times for […]
