Thank you!!!

i'm pretty sure it's your fault that i started watching haven. all the times i yelled at nathan are on your conscience.

HA!!! But then, all the times Duke was beautiful or charming are my fault, too. I WILL TAKE THAT CREDIT!

automatically assuming washington wrote "december 18" ON december 18 was stupid.

AGREE! Sometimes the show is just painfully stupid. But FUN!

[tsuki_no_bara]

i'd say "here's to brad and nate in the age of sail", but since you have to write that fic and not me.... and yes, i can blame you for duke too. :D which balances out the nathan.

you think you can get away with stupid, sleepy hollow, because you're so fun and batshit and because the mills sisters and abbie's english sidekick are going to save the world. but we're on to you! and sometimes you're still stupid.

The assumption about Washington and the date was odd (son and I were baffled by that when he watched) but I did love the rest of the episode, especially Ichabod vs the skinny jeans and the way his hands were all twiddly and uncomfortable when he tried them on. And how the clothing jokes continued through the whole episode. Poor Reverend whoever and Detective Jones though. I wonder if there will be a scene with Luke realizing he killed his partner at some point, it'd be nice to show how that sort of thing was dealt with.

I did watch Almost Human and I wonder if it was being shown out of order, it seemed like it should have been the second or third episode continuity wise, not the 10th or where ever we are now.

The Blacklist was pretty obvious, although I wonder how much time was supposed to have passed between the two parter and this one. Ressler's leg was ridiculously healed for being broken and having such horrid surgery/treatment having done to it.

cute cookies, although now I want tea :)

just spotted this http://tvline.com/2014/01/14/greys-anatomy-president-call-derek-spoilers-season-10/

Question: On Sleepy Hollow, I didn’t understand why Abbie and Ichabod automatically assumed that George Washington had written in his Bible after his death. Did I miss something? -Andy
Ausiello: TVLine put that exact question to Ichabod himself, Tom Mison, who had this answer: “This is Sleepy Hollow, and it’s in hidden ink, in Washington’s Bible that was buried with Ichabod. My spoiler is: Yes, something weird is going on.” (Now imagine that in Crane’s clipped accent, and you’ll feel exactly as stupid as we did when he schooled us.) BONUS SCOOP: Nicole Beharie describes the Jan. 20 Season 1 finale thusly: ” It’s clandestine… gory… surprising…. and passionate.” Word on the street is it also leaves viewers with a big question.

Interesting, no?

[tsuki_no_bara]

the fact that they thought there was a hidden message in the bible wasn't that strange. why else would it have been buried with ichabod, if not because there were secrets in it? it was why they saw the date and thought it was written ON that date, and thus, what, washington didn't really die when everyone thinks he did?

[donutsweeper]

I'm just glad there's a plan in play apparently. The SH writers seem a lot more on the ball than most for that sort of thing.

I preferred the previous Abbie & Jenny dynamic too. I think Jenny already had plenty to be mad about with how things turned out, and had Abby not denied seeing the demon, people might not have as readily assumed Jenny had mental health issues.

on the other hand, automatically assuming washington wrote "december 18" ON december 18 was stupid.

No kidding. My first assumption was that December 18 was somehow a significant DATE. Who would go to all the trouble of invisible ink to write what amounts to "It is today!" in their journal? Dumbest thing ever.

[tsuki_no_bara]

it was just too big a logic leap! even for this show.

>>I think Jenny already had plenty to be mad about with how things turned out, and had Abby not denied seeing the demon, people might not have as readily assumed Jenny had mental health issues.<<

exactly! and this way, they've totally diminished the whole "i saw a demon/i denied it" rift, as if it was no big deal, and your sister failing to back you up on such a major issue actually is a big deal.

THANK YOU. WHY would they assume he wrote that date ON that date? And while we're at it, how did Ichy know which page to pour lemon soda on? And why did it take him so long to figure out there was invisible ink in the first place, if the book smelled so bad? And why didn't Jenny just ASK that weird redneck dude for the lantern if he "can never say no to her"? And why did Irving not notice the BODY IN THE BUSHES when he went for that stroll?

Oh show. Show I love you. DON'T KILL KATRINA. Kthxbi.

[tsuki_no_bara]

i don't think irving was looking down on his stroll. or he wasn't looking down in the right place. not a clue how ichabod managed to pick the right page for his invisible ink, tho. a psychic line to george washington? i mean, he IS the guy's biggest fan.

this show does not respond to logic. and yet we're still compelled to apply it.

i'll be reallllly surprised if they kill katrina off. i think you can rest easy! at least for now. >:D

[kita0610]

I know Irving was distracted what with his kid being possessed and all. But he's a police officer! He's supposed to notice stuff! Like one of his deputies being MISSING AL'LA SUDDEN.

Logic, yes. We has none.

There's been speculation about someone dying in the finale. And I love The Exposition Witch but not many other people do- and to be fair, it isn't like she has much to DO. Plus you know, I never do pick the right characters to fangirl over. IT IS MY CURSE.
