I didn't really have any expectations, so it's hard to be disappointed. A lot of shows in this genre are silly and hokey at first (Supernatural comes to mind) and then get better. I doubt FOX gives it enough time to do that, though.

I'm getting that 13 Ghosts of Scooby Doo vibe. Are they really planning on seven years of monster of the week?

Just watched the first of this off my dvr and the only things I like about it are the Ichabod Crane character and visually, the horseman itself, sans the apocalyptic story stuff. I agree with most everything said here. Great premise that is not getting its due. Why waste this literary character on modern apocalypse nonsense. There is real historical evidence of apocalyptic movement concurrent to the American Revolution. If you are going to go there, go all the way there.

Woah. Already renewed for season 2. That's not very Fox-like.

NBC did the same thing with Revolution last fall, and the bottom dropped out of that show's ratings during the 2nd half of the year. I could see something similar happening here, although I think Sleepy Hollow has been better than Revolution was. |

I wish networks would just do what fox eventually did with 24 and air the episodes non stop.

That's a valid argument, but I think Revolution in general was just a bad show. I know I quit watching long before the hiatus. I tried to sit through the finale in May, and thought it was just awful. I haven't watched any of this season, so I don't know what may or may not have changed.

A lot of shows are doing that split season format now. Walking Dead is one of them. If the show is good, the audience will come back. Revolution lost its audience because it sucks.

I'm two episodes behind now, and based on what I'm reading I don't even know if I'll bother watching them.
