"Heartless"

I thought it was a great episode overall, even if it had more Hawley and less Jenny than I'd like. But at least Jenny looks to be a major presence. It was fun to have Katrin and Abby work together, and not have it be exactly hunky dory. But their tension isn't over a man (Yay!) but the Crane's (understandable, but honestly slightly ridiculous, too) insistence that there is good in Henry.

Having Katrina go back to Abraham is a bit easy (but it's not like most of us want her around permanently) but I do wonder where they are going with it. Clearly, her necklace lets her see the evil demon baby as a normal baby. I wonder if they'll go full on Rosemary's Baby, here. Which would be a LITTLE odd, since the baby isn't even biologically hers or Ichabod's.

Also, I really hope we get some 1/6 figures too. Ichabod, Abby, Henry, War and the Horseman would all be great.

You can see some kind of storyline now where she's going to protect the demon baby. Not sure how I like that but we'll see where it goes.

 

[Mr. Green]

they grow up so fast!11!!!!

 

[The Josh]

No ****.

Loved the stuff with Abbie and Jenny. Jenny has been shunted aside too much. Hawley continues to be extraneous. I don't know, if at some point, they are going to pick up the story strand where apparently Jenny and Hawley sleep together (ew) combined with the fact that Hawley likes Abbie too (ew) and make it some kind of boring love triangle with Hawley at the center. Ewwwww. Just hating all of that all around, to be honest. I feel like we've had this guy foisted upon us when there are good characters like Irving and Jenny that haven't gotten enough screen time.

An Abbie and Jenny sandwich, although 12 directions of kinky has its upside.

Pre-empted here for the Ferguson verdict.

 

[Mr. Green]

wahah, they interrupt this epi to show the breaking NEWS, fiend!! *shakes fist*

 

[Mr. Green]

aight, back to the pizza, Mr, Green means the swords

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

That was perhaps one of the most anticlimactic things I've ever seen.

Spoiler

It was obvious halfway through the episode that Henry was going to kill Moloch. That's my biggest problem with this show, the way they telegraph plot points. Capt. Irving's death was assured the moment he asked Jenny to watch over his family, so that also was no surprise, but still sad none the less. A shame we had to lose him instead of handsome Gary Busey.

 

[The Ween]

I wish they'd kill that witch already. Sick of her. But then that would mean they'd start a romance with Leftenient and Ichabod and I don't want to see that either.

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

It's a bummer what they did with Katrina's character. Having a witch on the team could've added a cool new dynamic, but I guess the writers were content to have her be a helpless damsel in distress and torture us with this awful Ichabod/Katrina/Abraham love triangle. Both her and Irving's characters have been wasted this season, and Jenny hasn't fared much better.

 

[Mr. Green]

molock seems one dimensional.

 

[The Ween]

New show tonight!

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

This used to be one of my favorite shows, and now I feel like I'm watching out habit and hoping it will return to first season form. I hope they fire the current writing staff, and get some new people in next season. Whoever came up with this Ichabod, Katrina, Abraham triangle should be taken out and shot.

 

[JonWes]

I still mostly enjoy it, but it's certainly lost its fire. Hopefully they learn some lessons from this season. I've had enough of Abraham as anything other than a killing machine. And Hawley needs to go.

 

[JonWes]

Really loved the finale. Kind of got back to the Sleepy Hollow I love, after having a somewhat rocky second season. I still enjoyed it over all, but some things worked better than others. But the finale showed that the writers seems to have gained some clarity on how to move forward.

Spoiler

Ben Franklin was great. The whole reversal of the Abbie/Ichabod dynamic from the first episode was great. I loved Abbie freeing herself.

The turning of Katrina seemed a bit too abrupt, it's true. They were sort of planting seeds the whole time, but I kind of wish the turn had happened a bit sooner. Because she made a great villain! And I was sad to see John Noble go. But I'm excited to see what direction they go with it now.

 

[The Ween]

I enjoyed it too...

Spoiler

]I honestly think they killed Katrina off because so many fans hated her. I just hope they don't do what so many women want, and that's to put Ichabod and Abbie together. IMO, it will be the death of the show. It would be for me.

 

[Josette]

They were losing viewers left and right because of the heavy Katrina focus. They had to make a sharp turn to try and save the show from cancellation, so I'm forgiving of the jarring nature of the writing in the past two episodes.

Spoiler

Killing Katrina was the best thing they could do at this point. She's been a horribly written character from day one. They had a perfect set up to make her the secret villain who was playing the long con with how shady they wrote her, but instead they made the mistake of making the show and too many of its characters revolve around her, while she was nothing but a plot device, exposition fairy and damsel. It's disgusting how badly they wrote her. The audience and critic backlash became too loud to ignore, hence....hence her actions in these last two episodes and killing her off.
