I can't figure out why I'm still watching.
The Hubby loves it, and I don't ask him to explain the shows he loves. I watch in hopes of a steamy makeout session between Hook and Charming. Or Hook and Neal.
Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Ichabod learning to yell at umps?
Basket-face! So much love!
edit: that was a less-than-three, but it didn't show up & the formatting links aren't working. Picture a less-than-three there, wouldya? That's the sentiment I wanted to express.

"I thought only horses slept on their feet!"
Actually pretty good.
I'm very pleased they don't seem to be injecting any kind of romantic bond between Abby and Ichabod. His frequent references to his beloved Katrina mitigate against that, of course, but so far it's a relationship of shared weirdness and responsibility.
And I like their lair below city hall or wherever that is. Though they may want to think about creating a map of the Tunnels: "OK, here's the secret Freemasons lair, and here's where the witches are buried, and this is the back entry into our lair."

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Er, how much in the way of underground tunnels could remain secret yet intact beneath a bustling "small town" of 144,000 for 23 decades?

As many as they need, obviously.

Because books.
It does seem weird that this "small town" has 144,000 people. That's a small city, isn't it?

For comparison, Actual Sleepy Hollow has a population of just under 10k.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I love the vibe that's growing between Abbie and Ichabod. I wouldn't say no to shipping some Jennich, and Abbie feeling besieged from both sides.
I loved everything about the baseball--Abbie's explanation about what it means to her, Ichabod getting into ump abuse, even though his timing needs work, but my favourite was her delivery of "Our pride, our link to the past. Created by the forefathers, handed down generation after generation..." So relaxed and sincere. Also the beats of when they looked at each other were great, and speak to great things for this partnership. She will be both Chief Bridesmaid and Best Woman.

The baseball scene was awesome. As baseball always is.
For comparison, Actual Sleepy Hollow has a population of just under 10k.
Billings MT, has a population of about 166,000, and while I know there's a lot more room to spread out there, that's the point -- New York and New Jersey are really densely populated, but I don't think their idea of Sleepy Hollow, given where it is, would actually fit.
But since I apply handwavium everywhere else, why not here, too, right?
