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.
The filming seems different for the two shows, and Abby and Ichabod seemed, I dunno, washed out, maybe, on the Bones set?
Definitely - the lighting is completely different, and Ichabod's clothes looked much more costume-y on the Bones set. (Also, Bones uses mostly static camera shot/reverse shot staging, while Sleepy Hollow uses a lot of slow pans across two-shots. Totally different feel for the characters.)
I question whether the creators of either show know how far apart Sleepy Hollow and Washington DC are - was it just me, or did Abbie and Ichabod drive down for a single conversation and drive back the same day? All in daylight?

Isn't this the show that put Roanoke in Massachusetts? What's one more geographical impossibility.
Yeah, but those were ghosts. They didn't have to drive through I-95 NJ traffic to move up the East Coast.
That show also renamed the Tappan Zee Bridge, and had the Roanoke colonists speaking "Chaucer's English." I think that expecting any sort of accuracy from them is expecting too much.

I actually looked it up on Google maps during a commercial break, and Google's most optimistic estimate was 4 hours. So even assuming traffic went perfectly (ahahahaha), that's still an 8-hour round trip. So...handwavium.
I watched both shows despite the fact that I gave up on Bones a couple seasons ago. It wasn't as painful as I expected it to be.
Sleepy Hollow also has people zipping about between the colonies in the Revolutionary era at improbable speeds.

I've driven roughly that trip dozens of times (when I was living in DC, and my parents are maybe half an hour from Sleepy Hollow), and never made it in less than five hours each way, and that was in the middle of the week and managing to avoid all rush hours. Usually, at least six hours each way.
Oh, I assumed Google was being ridonkulously optimistic.

Maybe there's a secret FBI-only superhighway that THEY don't want us to know about.
