Freedom

Sleepy Hollow
S04E13
Season 4 Episode 13

What a terrible episode. There was that stupid interruption by the internet guy. Then the maudlin conversation at the beginning with his son. Then the unbelievable speech about freedom. Just terrible. Not even Walternate could save this last season.

The stupid faux-Trump storyline is finally over & in their push to have michelle obama as president, they made her have to be rescued by a white male. It's funny when they end up doing the opposite of what they want.

Of course Ichabod, didn't shoot Faraday, when he saved the president, instead he bargained away his soul to the devil like a disposable male.

Getting rid of child Molly & using alternate future adult Molly is good, but the show should be cancelled. There is no way I'm going to suffer through any more episodes of this crap show.

Tomorrow

Sleepy Hollow
S04E12
Season 4 Episode 12

This was another Jenny Mills episode where Icahbod was imprisoned. I'm surprised he doesn't quit the show the way Abbie did.  At least they finally had him do something. I like how they brought back his son.

The other 2 horsemen did not look scary plus the whole, Dreyfuss is an evil president, is an obvious anti-President Trump storyline. I'm almost done with this show.

The Way of The Gun

Sleepy Hollow
S04E11
Season 4 Episode 11

The time traveling Molly was a good idea. So much better than child Molly. It was dumb that she didn't just tell them what was going on, she could have done that without identifying herself.

They are really going with that girl having feelings for nerd, now that he was a girlfriend. So stupid. It's also stupid that he keeps calling her his best friend. They aren't. Do they think we haven't been watching this season from the beginning?

I was really surprised when Job killed tomboygirl but then he undid it, which sucked. It would have been a really good shocking thing but nope, they will probably kill the black man. They turned Ichabod into the Horseman of war, which is ironic considering that they've spent seasons making him non-threatening & ineffectual.

How did Dreyfuss know who Molly was? Did Job tell him?

Insatiable

Sleepy Hollow
S04E10
Season 4 Episode 10

Once again Ichabod crane can't do anything. He can't even work the puzzle box. Jenny can do it, & she can read Chinese & she can find relics & she knows everybody on earth. Why don't they just make this the Jenny Mills show.

Ugh, so now tomboy has a crush on nerd? These shows try to be so feminist but then they end up showing how they are typical girls. Like how some girls only want a guy after some other girl has shown interest. It's such a cliche.

The 4 horsemen idea is good, they probably realize it's the last season. Of course the people he picked are really lame looking. Hopefully they will look interesting when they become horsemen.

Calling it a hunger demon was distracting because it reminded me of Buffy where they would just put a word in front of "demon" each week.

Child's Play

Sleepy Hollow
S04E09
Season 4 Episode 9

This show really is for man-hating feminists. The black guy couldn't handle a girls's obstacle course & once again Ichabod was sidelined, on his own show, trapped in a room. Then Jake & Alex are suddenly friends? After she lied to him to get free lunch out of him. What a great friend.

At first I was annoyed that they were blatantly ripping off the movie 9, but I guess their making the 9 sigil glow was their admission to it. And they did admit that they had done this story before. What was the point of this episode, mother-daughter drama? This show should be cancelled.

If they send Ichabod back in time to the League of Extraordinary Americans & Ichabod ruined the timeline by constantly talking about modern stuff, that would be great. but they would never do that, so I'm really glad this is the last season.

Sick Burn

Sleepy Hollow
S04E08
Season 4 Episode 8

The League of Extraordinary Americans! Now that is a show I would watch. Paul Jennings, Sam Wilson, Davy Crockett, and Sacajawea should be transported into the present & replace the current cast. Or Ichabod should be transported into the past & have adventures with them.

Alex was so annoying. Jake was actually flirting with the bartender, so much for his crush on Jenny. This show is a mess. That future wasn't interesting at all. Malcolm is not menacing at all especially because of the flashback episode where he was crying & afraid of his old business partner.

Loco Parentis

Sleepy Hollow
S04E07
Season 4 Episode 7

I liked that Ichabod was not interested in the single mom.

This episode was boring. The only good part were the action figures that they made just for the show. Ichabod buys Molly an action figure which makes no sense based on what we've seen of her room.

Then they have a Lycan impersonating Molly's dad so he can kill the witness but she has to be older than 11. What a random age. Plus all that relationship talk was pointless because it wasn't the real dad.

Homecoming

Sleepy Hollow
S04E06
Season 4 Episode 6

Did they just ret-con Ichabod's origin? I'm pretty sure Katrina kept him alive until modern times because she knew the witness was going to be needed. Instead they acted as if Washington betrayed him.

Unfortunately they decided to ret-con his ability to fight the horseman of death by saying that the philosopher's stone is the reason he was able to decapitate him. What is the point of even having Ichabod on this show anymore? He's been de-powered, has no magical weapons, can't fight & keeps getting kidnapped. All he does is point at the bad guys. He's so useless.

Somehow Malcolm is still alive even though nobody died?

Blood From a Stone

Sleepy Hollow
S04E05
Season 4 Episode 5

This episode continues the slow destruction of this show.

Right, somehow Jennie can remember everything & is a super hacker. Instead of having her do research she can instantly remember everything. She's also a super-hacker & so is the other girl.
 
This show is supposed to be about the supernatural, not hack0r skillz.

Meanwhile the guy is a gullible idiot being taken advantage of by the girl engineer. The obvious grrl-power is so forced, like the girl's soccer team who think it's cool that a severed head was kicked around by savages. Sure, that's believable.

Dreyfuss turned into a sniveling coward when his old friend showed up, after being portrayed as some bad guy who isn't afraid of anyone.

The hell guy can stop a bullet, but he can't stop a knife? It would have been better if the FBI girl had shot him & Ichabod saved the Greek fire. Instead Jennie did the chant & the FBI girl saved the day.

The People v. Ichabod Crane

Sleepy Hollow
S04E04
Season 4 Episode 4

I like how Jennie explained that it isn't a coincidence that Crane was friends with their ancestor who helped at Valley Forge. It's because they were all destined to have their lives intertwined. They should have said something like that a few seasons ago.

The trial was interesting but the son still whining is so annoying. You weren't abandoned or neglected, Ichabod didn't know you even existed, blame your mother or better yet, grow up & get over it.

The Webstor knock-off was interesting but he could have been scarier. They barely showed him.
I was not into this dumb child witness thing, but if she just repeats Abbie's lines from other episodes, I'm ok with it.

Heads of State

Sleepy HollowS04E03
Season 4 Episode 3
 
It was ok, they should have spent more time on Banneker & less on Molly.


I did like the American history in this episode & that info about J street. They really should devote more time to that aspect of the show.

The Headless Horseman is back, I'm not sure why. We've seen the Headless Horseman countless times & Ichabod has not only defeated him, but captured him a bunch. He just isn't scary anymore. they tried to make him seem scary in this episode as if this was the 1st season, but it isn't, it's season 4.
The CEO was being a douchebag to that guy seeking investment partners. A 50 year plan? That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.
 
It would have been funny if Crane had told the single mom to contact Boothe for more info. The way that Jenny instantly remembered the tube was just stupid. It would have been better if she had searched her records or the "dark web" or whatever.

In Plain Sight

Sleepy Hollow
S04E02
Season 4 Episode 2
 
I like how the nerd thinks Ichabod is a time traveler. Oh look a single mom who can't make pancakes. Is that supposed to be funny? The nanny probably does everything.
The kid started talking normally when Crane showed up & there is just no good way this will make any sense. It would have been better if they had him all alone in DC & Abbie had just died permanently.
 
It also would have been better if the witches had a bigger connection to his wife. It looks like the anti-male nonsense is still here in this season. The witches kill some cheating men who hit on them even though they were ready to kill just for being approached.

Columbia

Sleepy Hollow
S04E01
Season 4 Episode 1

I like that John Wilkes Booth was apparently the south's strongest occultist. So different from how he was in Timeless. They visited DC in past seasons so it makes sense that it moves to DC, so now it will be more like National Treasure as he finds stuff in all these old monuments.

I don't like how they stole the Men of Letter from Supernatural.

I hate these new characters though. His new partner sounded really stupid talking about music & I've never liked Jenny. The engineer girl was such obvious pandering & Abbie's soul is in that little girl? That was a dumb place for her "eternal soul" to be.

Ragnarok

Sleepy Hollow
S03E18

What a mess of an episode. The only good part was the Headless Horseman.

He showed up & started slashing with his axe while holding his skull then he slashed up Pandora & even shot at her with his shotgun. She impaled him with a bunch of spears for nothing because he still hacked her to death. So long Pandora.

Betsy Ross was alive in the catacombs for nothing. What a waste, they should have brought her to the present, she should have stepped out of that governement car at the end. They could have had him explain the modern world to her.

They especially should have brought her to back to the future because they killed Abbie!

They are going to pair up Ichabod with some random person who has the eternal soul of a witness? That doesn't even make sense. The witnesses never go to Heaven? They didn't even say Heaven even though the show has had demons, angels & the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse but saying the word Heaven was too much for them?

Then they had someone else tell Ichabod that he loved Abbie, which was ridiculous. He doesn't love Abbie & he never acted as if he did. He was always in love with his wife Katrina & with Betsey.

It was a really bad episode. They fast forwarded to a few weeks after she was buried so they could set up another season which was totally unnecessary. They should have ended with a happy ending.

Delaware

Sleepy Hollow
S03E17


I'm so glad that they are finally going to bring Betsey Ross into the present with Ichabod. They should have done this a long time ago while miss Corinth was still on the show.

They killed Joe for nothing, he was treated like a joke by the characters the entire season so his death was meaningless. Contrast that with The Originals who had a really emotional scene for Finn who was in maybe 3 episodes.

They are just ignoring all the people that Pandora had killed because somehow The Hidden One is now the bigger threat, even though Pandora had countless people killed & she provided him with everything he needed to be a threat. She was supposed to be the villain of this season but It looks like they decided that they couldn't have a female villain.

I also think it's really lame that suddenly their dad knew all along about the supernatural world. He was a hunter all this time & now is when he reveals himself? Now is when he tries to cure Joe of the Wendigo curse? This was terrible idea that they just threw in at the last minute.

Abbie's boss is totally ok with the supernatural, & is now barking orders to everyone.

If Betsey Ross was sleeping in the catacombs all this time. Why didn't Abby just go to sleep? Who returned to America & had all those kids if it wasn't her?

Dawn’s Early Light

Sleepy Hollow
S03E16

I like that they gave another alternate explanation for the Crossing of the Delaware which is that it was how they got to that Hidden One dimension. Then they did it with design of the American flag, that the stripes can be used as musical lines & bullet holes were notes. Then that linked to Francis Scott Key. It reminded me of the 1st season & also National Treasure.

The flag protecting monster didn't makes sense though, because the flag at Hamilton's house was fake so it shouldn't have even been there protecting a fake.

Once again they have someone easily accept the existence of the supernatural as though it's nbd. Only Grimm & Second Chance have handled it in a realistic way.

I really hope they bring Betsey Ross into the present, it is taking them way too long.

Incommunicado

Sleepy Hollow
S03E15

I like that Ichabod has a wide range of musical interests.

They didn't really explain how The Hidden One was going to destroy the world by trying to break out of that prison. Maybe Pandora was lying to them about that just so she could steal some magic.

I'm surprised they didn't start the Pandora betrayal of the Hidden One considering it was Girl-Power time. Instead they went with her revealing that she is keeping secrets from The Hidden One that could hurt him.

Now that they made Pandora into the worst person in that relationship, I'm sure they are going to try to make him look bad, even though he gave her another chance to confess & she didn't.

I don't like that they got rid of their amulet & de-powered the Wendigo, who could hurt Pandora.

Into the Wild

Sleepy Hollow
S03E14

Joe turned into a Wendigo & hurt Pandora. She is really low on power. It's only a matter of time before she turns on The Hidden One.

Another episode without Betsey Ross. I don't know why they had Ichabod treat Miss Corinth so poorly & had her say that lame line about how he's in love with someone else if they aren't going to go anywhere with that.

The Maggot monster was another really good monster, it's too bad that they got rid of him so fast too.  & I think it was their version of Slenderman.

The symbol has now been ret-conned into something good, even though last episode, it almost caused Abbie to let Ichabod die, so I'm not sure they know what they are doing anymore.

Dark Mirror

Sleepy Hollow
S03E13

It's too bad they killed the Jersey Devil. They should have kept him around. He was on for only this 1 episode but he was already a way better adversary for Ichabod than Pandora & The Hidden One. Those two are so boring & not scary at all.

I liked that Abbie asked Crane for help, but being "addicted" to a symbol doesn't make sense.

Where is Betsey Ross? They got rid of Miss Corinth but they haven't brought Betsey Ross into the present. It would make the show so much better, with Ichabod explaining to her the modern world.

The Jennie story with her trailer was terrible. Her boyfriend buys her a brand new trailer home & she complains about it non-stop. Then she has the nerve to say

"I know you think it was a grand romantic gesture, but it's theft." i don't know how an actress can read that & still recite those lines. It was so stupid. This is after she suggested using his money to fix Crane's imigration problem. What a hypocrite.

Sins of the Father

Sleepy Hollow
S03E12

The map showed a lot of demons heading to Sleepy Hollow all at once but then The Hidden One said he can only summon them, one at a time. So that didn't make sense.

The Ghoul was a better monster than that gargoyle. The scarab was interesting but I would think once he gave the scarab to the ghoul, it wouldn't obey him anymore.

Is Abbie a shadowhunter now? The symbol she kept drawing looks like an upside down shadowhunter symbol.

The father stuff was really boring. Last episode Jennie called him a deadbeat but he joined the military so their mom would have healthcare. It doesn't make any sense, other than to try to make him look bad.
