12/30 Sleepy Hollow

[darkemeralds]

I just...

I'm sitting here watching "Sleepy Hollow," grinning at the ridiculous goodness and badness of it. It's like...so probably going to be cancelled but might catch fire. It's indescribable, but it has American legend + Apocalypse + a little bit of Clancy Brown + a very appealing lead woman of color + stupid fish-out-of-water time-travel jokes + you know, Headless Horseman. Of the Apocalypse.

And this one guy with a really beautiful nose playing Ichabod Crane. I mean. Sleepy Hollow. I think it might be love. Ridiculous, ill-advised love.

Yes, this show is le Crack.
The Headless Horseman has me howling with laughter; first he's Bane, and then he's a pushy houseguest flopped on the sofa until you get ho~ome, and hey! Shotgun! Clever kraut...

It is totally crack. So much so that I've been thinking about it all day and am now going to rewatch, probably read some fic (of which there were four examples when I looked this afternoon, and of which there are now seven), and become impatient for episode two. And maybe make myself an icon.

I hear the pilot episode did fabulously well in the ratings, so who knows? Maybe it's a keeper.
