marcicat | Sleepy Hollow ep catch-up (Reply)

Last night I caught up with episode 11 of Sleepy Hollow (the one with the demon possession, somehow I missed that one back in December). And let me just say that the reviews did not do this episode justice.

1. I had not grasped the full measure of Captain Irving’s crazy until I watched him pull a gun inside the station and threaten one of his own officers. (I mean, I feel for the guy, but let’s see some strategy, right?)

2. Poor Jones! How do you *not notice* a dead body on your lawn? Come on! (Although really, don’t go around disrespecting a priest’s salt lines, are you nuts?)

3. The entire reason to watch this show is the characters. The plot’s been done a million times before, but watching Abbie and Jenny and Ichabod crack jokes about wardrobe choices, relative heights, tv remotes, and lock picking is so worth it.

4. I very much enjoy the amount of platonic physical contact in this show. This ep had more hugging! And hand holding!

5. When Cynthia said, “I’m an attorney,” I think I actually did a little dance of victory. (Since that’s the career I was going to make up for her anyway, it’s nice to have some element of it not be completely fabricated!)
