TV Review: Sleepy Hollow 1×01 “Pilot”

Chelsea Doyle watches the Sleepy Hollow pilot and surprisingly likes it! There will be spoilers in this recap about the pilot, so beware. Ichabod Crane defeats the demonic horseman in the past, but he wakes up in the modern day thanks to a magic spell. Or something like that.

TV Review: The Following 1×11 “Whips and Regret”

Previously on The Following: Claire voluntarily went with the cult to get a chance to see Joey. Ryan was heartbroken because they said they loved each other right before. Emma left boyfriend Jacob and other boyfriend Paul to die. Jacob had to mercy kill Paul, so he’s sort of checked out now and becoming as creepy a guy as everyone else. Roderick, Joe’s second in command, started showing signs of not liking how power was shifting with the group. The FBI sucks at their job a lot. Oh and we just found out that Ryan’s ex Molly is one of the cult. Unsurprising. We were introed to a new follower Vince who is only important to this episode. I usually like the one-off followers we meet and their own brand of crazy, but this one fell a little flat. Plus the episode highlighted a few of the weaknesses in the show, including the FBI’s ineptitude, Ryan’s instability, and a sort of ‘where are we going with this?’ feeling. But on with the episode.
