Our Bond Cannot Be Broken They’re baaacck. Just as I was lamenting the opportunity to review Sleepy Hollow, the show returned to rescue me. My months of deprivation have ended. Yes, absence makes the heart grow fonder, and the show is back in fine form. Abbie is bold, strong, taking the lead. Innuendo abounds. The […]

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 […]
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 […]

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. […]

Katrina and Parrish’s connection is advanced and explored a bit. We get more wit, and historical playfulness around Benedict Arnold, […]
A New Sheriff And Monster Are In Town (and don’t mess with her/him) While Sleepy Hollow settles into its procedural formula of consulting old texts for clues, flash backs and Abbie telling Ichabod something witty/funny about this wacky modern world, the show also surprises us with nice tidbits like prophetic nightmares, a new monster and the […]
Welcome Back, Baby: Sneaky, Clever, Fun, Familiar. Have you missed hearing a sexy male voice intone “Leftenant” in a British accent? Lament no more. Sleepy Hollow is back. It’s a little slicker (more makeup and some cool SFX), but the writing is still sharp and the outrageous skew on history is still galloping along. I […]
