The pilot (and series) of Sleepy Hollow is supposed to contain time travel:

Jacqueline Patricks (jacquelinepatricks) | 112 comments I've always loved The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. I'm very curious about this show. It'll either be cool or dog balls terrible. My husband thinks it'll be the latter. I'm going to watch it and find out. Wanna trade opinions on it?

E.B. Brown (ebbrown) | 320 comments ooh, I'll watch. Looks interesting.

Jacqueline Patricks (jacquelinepatricks) | 112 comments Goody! We've got to have a TV chat about this since my hubby will probably be mocking it. He's doing that now.

Howard Loring (howardloringgoodreadscom) | 1177 comments An interesting twist given that originally Ichabod didn’t Time Travel, only sleeps the years away.

Yet he doesn't look so old in the blurbs, so I guess in this treatment he'll be traveling before he would have slept.

I guess for him Time is a Loaf of Bread:

Oh wait, does this mean Thor is getting a run for his money?

Can’t wait for that girly thread, not.

But who knows what the Future will bring?

Anyone still watching Sleepy Hollow?

Ichabod is brought to the present through witchcraft...and in the latest episode his present day "witness" partner who happens to be black is sent back to 1771...Looks to be a good time as it was fun seeing Ichabod dealing with modernity but now the opposite!

I watched the pilot episode and decided that was enough for me.

I have been watching it mostly from the beginning. There was a brief time at the beginning I thought that it wasn't that great but then it just grew on me. I like the combining of the fantasy aspect with actual history (stretching a bit.) Season finale was excellent! :)

Kathryn (sscarllet) | 32 comments Don't give any spoilers, I'm in the UK and it doesn't start back up here until the end of March!

I love this show, its totally rediculous, but I think the way the actors handle the various otherworldy issues is what has me hooked!

I am big believer in Tivo....If I think I want to watch something I will tell my Tivo to record it. After time I can tell what shows I enjoy and others that just pile up...hmmm looks like I have 8 episodes of whatever...and I often delete it.

This was the case with Sleepy Hollow...never was excited to watch and often would put it off for other shows but when I noticed that I had 9 episodes sitting on my Tivo I watched a lot of Sleepy Hollow all at once...Binge watching I guess is what its called, and I sort of got hooked.

Kathryn let us know when you caught up and I think it would be fun to discuss the details of the show, despite the minor amounts of time travel.

Kathryn (sscarllet) | 32 comments Will do - I can't get enough of it, but its frustraiting to be so far behind!

Mary Enck (maryenck) | 34 comments This finale was one of the best episodes I have seen in this show. It's too bad we should not discuss the ins and outs of it because some live in different areas and don't want us to spoil it for them.

I will be eager to continue watching when it returns for another so called season. Seasons are too short in my opinion.

Mary if you know how to use spoiler tags than go ahead and post...but I am in Kathryn's camp just because she is not in the United States, she should not be spoiled to the joys of the finale!


message 16: by Mary (new)

Mary Enck (maryenck) | 34 comments Thank you Lincoln. I really do not want to spoil it for anyone. It is that good and should be enjoyed fresh and new to anyone who views it.


message 17: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (sscarllet) | 32 comments Thank you, I very much appreciate it.

Mary, I totally agree with you about the short seasons. In the UK most seasons (series as they call it here) aren't more than 6 or 8 episodes. With shows like The Following, Sleepy Hollow and American Horror Story having shorter seasons than the 20 or so other have is the US going the way of UK tv?

The nice aspect of haveing shorter shows is that there aren't really any mid season breaks in UK shows and there are even new things to watch over the summer and Christmas.


message 18: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (sscarllet) | 32 comments We're about 3 weeks in now in the UK, and this season has been really good. I'm both looking forward to and dreading the finale. I hate it when I run out of shows to watch!

Remind me where you are so I don't spoil anything...To be honest I stopped watching but I never told my Tivo to stop recording so I had like 8 episodes piled up and I watched them all in like three days because when I finally sat down to watch I couldn't stop.

Kathryn (sscarllet) | 32 comments I just had the first episode with the angel.
