I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

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.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber
Though the scene with the bread and the knife was cool without words.
Actually, at the time I was saying "stupid, stupid Katrina" because the Horseman was standing right there about two feet in front of her. She couldn't wait until he was further away, or had his back turned, or in the other room? Obviously they wanted to show her all spunky and defiant, but it didn't show her thinking too strategically. Also, when can she and can't she do things with her witchy powers? Does she have no self-protective abilities at all?
Edit: Huh... I need to rewatch. Someone on previously.tv pointed out that
let's just say that she has very very limited powers due to Purgatory and Henry is suppressing them - fine. I'll accept that. It does make sense. But do you realize that the way she was tied up, she could have literally stood up from the chair and freed herself. She was not bound to the chair. She just had her arms pulled back behind the chair. ANYONE could escape that. Simply Stand Up.
And if that is true, the scenes with Katrina are even worse, because she was just sitting there before he came back from wherever, wasn't she?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That's quite the image.

Darn it. My TiVo didn't record Sleepy Hollow. I have a season pass and all the settings look right. I've double checked everything and arranged to catch a rerun on Thursday, but still. I am disappointed.

Timothy Busfield as Franklin is some brilliant casting. I do hope we see more of him.
That was Busfield??? Holy crap doggies!
I'm in the ripped headless horseman seems wrong camp.

Be careful what you wish for, given his first appearance. I do wish they'd had him speak with a British accent though - wouldn't all the Founding Fathers have sounded vaguely English?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
In 1780, a British accent sounded more American than it does now. Ichabod's accent is the really fake one.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Oh god, so true.
Question, because I watched Doctor Who last night instead of rewatching Sleepy Hollow...did they air both parts of the premiere together, or just the first hour? I don't want to be spoilery.

I want to see more of Franklin and Ichabod being pissy at each other. And Abby going "Dude, don't diss the founding father."
