Liveblogging Sleepy Hollow: The One With Lots of Heads

Nov 11, 2013 21:00

Linguistic issues:

* "gets under my skin" seems like an idiom that Crane wouldn't know.

* Smart. Phone. :D

* In-ter-net. If he had said interblag, I would have died.

Plot issues:
*OMG NOW WHAT REVISIONIST HISTORY?! Huh... That didn't go where I thought it would.

* I would like to see Crane's visit to Costco.

*Obligatory joke about bottled water, yeah. Yup.

* Yay, John Cho is back! Also, ewww, his skin. Whoa, he's Batman now? Also, Headless LaMar just hung out in front of the building to taunt Abbie and Crane? What? Yebisu and I had the following joke exchange:

Me: What, he just wants them to know he killed some Masons? Seriously?
Yebisu: And then he put the heads in Mason jars.

Why, yes, we are tremendous dorks.

* Where is PsychoFrain? I'm assuming he didn't die so easily.

* Poor Irving, barely time to be EBIL in between returning all those phone calls. On the other hand, it's the first time we've seen any realistic police work during the entire show, so I can't begrudge him any of that nonsense. I'm still not sure how Irving's aligned, but I still don't trust him, not even after this sequence.

* Headless LaMar using an M-16 is sort of... overkill, for lack of a better word. Also, Abbie and Crane's efforts to destroy the skull.

* WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP TOUCHING SEVERED HEADS IN THIS SHOW. OMG, people, disgusting. I mean, the smell alone! They're severed heads lined with silver, not the new fragrance from Yankee Candle.

* Heh, Crane at the Colonial Museum = Awesome. I want to see him go through the entire museum please. And then old Sturbridge Village.

* His handwriting! Nice.

* Morales seems like the consummate cultist -- easily rattled, delusions, etc. I give him three episodes to either die ignobly or become another flunkie of the bad guys.

* Ahaha, Crane vs. the Hot Chixx website, while Abbie is in real trouble. It's like an RPG where the PCs have split up, and one group of them is fixating on a minor problem, like a gazebo hunt.

* OK, I'm officially amused at this montage in which Crane rails against the liberal media, Irving has real questions that barely get answered, and Abbie is the voice of snarky reason. Poor Crane, to be proven so wrong so fast, and the indignity of having Jefferson not turn out to be the man Crane thought he was. This was a nice segue into Abbie and Crane's discussion about their crazy lives.

* You fool! We've all got horses! Except in the tunnels, which is probably for the best.

* Looks like they actually succeeded... Wow, nice job, you guys!

tv shows: sleepy hollow, fannish babblery, why yes i love this genre
