You know what this is—it’s in the title. Let’s get into it. Two to three weeks worth of news! (silently crying inside at how deceptively hard these types of posts are):

"Sleepy Hollow" Season 2 Post-Mortem: Part 1

10 Minutes read

I took on the challenge to rewatch Season 2 of Sleepy Hollow to see just how good or bad the season actually was without the fandom influences of #AbbieMillsDeservesBetter and other fan-based movements.

4 Minutes read

I think we can safely say that even though there was some kind of drama about Rebecca possibly being Lila’s real killer (which most of the fans had already figured out the moment they laid eyes on her), the best part of How to Get Away with Murder episode “Mama’s Here Now” was Cicely Tyson going…

I think that even though the Cancellation Bear is right in saying that S3 isn’t a definite lock, I won’t say that the show is…

When I started today’s Sleepy Hollow tweet, I wrote: #SleepyHollow is on! Let’s get Jesus on the mainline to help us through! — Monique Jones (@moniqueblognet) January 20, 2015 I wrote it partly in jest, but little did I know that I’d actually feel like I needed a mainline to Jesus during the episode.
