I only watched the show occasionally last season, but it got pretty awesome at the end. Was the whole season that good, or should I just read some plot summaries and jump into season 2?

You can do the latter, but the entire season is really good. It has some hiccups past the first episode, but it's still all good, and only 13 episodes.

Basically, WATCH IT

They came back in 9 months later, with all the weight of expectations on their shoulders, they dusted themselves off, and they picked back up right the gently caress where they left off.

Long live Sleepy Hollow.

How did he get the ambulance in drive without knowing how to also shift in reverse?

Assuming he knew how to use the shifter at all, half the options on an automatic shifter (D, 1, 2) mean "go forward"

But secretly I like to think that he knows only enough to just floor it and drop the clutch.

Excellent season premiere.

Enjoyed the episode....but, I'm gonna be that guy for just a second. I didn't like that they went back to purgatory. That's my least favorite Sleepy Hollow area. It's just super dull.

But other than that, good poo poo. Could've used more Orlando Jones though.

Yeah, where was he?

They had to go back to Purgatory, though. The entire cliffhanger was about that. I'm sure they'll get wackier and bring in Heaven and Hell at some point, because why shouldn't they?

Really, I'd kind of like to see Brooks in increasingly complicated situations. Preferably changing form all the time like some sort of Wonder Twin. He was already a devotee of Moloch before the pilot, I guess? But he sounds like he was coerced? Or maybe wasn't but came to regret choosing it. There are tons of questions there. All of this if John Cho comes back, I mean (I don't have high hopes for Selfie based on the pilot. So, he might.)

I love how the main characters never really sit still while captured but are constantly finding ways to to stab their captors. Hopefully next episode we have the police boss dude finding out that his prison guards are all Hessians and stabbing/exploding them all.

Also the Horseman of Death still being terrible at romance 200 years later is great.

One question, what is that door that Moloch created Henry's horseman form from?

Irving was arrested in the penultimate episode last season for taking the rap for killing Luke's partner and the priest while Luke / Macey were possessed. So yeah, he's in jail. I missed him too, hopefully he gets sprung soon.

I want Andy to be Abbie's guardian angel who's just playing the long game or something. His constant betrayal and aid are just him wrestling with his duty and fighting for his freedom and the poor clown just can't get a loving break.

Dude's already in the friendzone so hard. Last time there was an Asian male/black female romance it just ended in a hug anyway, he thinks he's gonna break the pattern?

Also who was the actor playing Abraham/Death? I swear he looked super familiar but I can't remember just exactly who.

I think it might be Derek Mears, who played Jason in the Friday the 13th remake, but don't quote me. I know he plays the horseman himself, I'm not sure if he also plays him in Abraham form.

The same reason why there was Zombie George Washington that's why.

EDIT: Actually, that was the reason, if you watch the season finale eps again, there was an explanation due to Washington trying to map out Purgatory I believe.

This show is crazy, now did it keep going from last year. I believed the time jump and the fact it would work on this show.

The only disappointment is John Noble is not going to wear the armour himself.

It's not like Icabod was lost; they knew where he was buried (or dumped, from the look at the start of the series) and knew that he was being prepped for fighting the apocalypse. Where else are you going to put your "How to stop the end of the world" manual other than with the guy who's going to need it when he wakes up?

I'm 90% sure it's so they can keep War in play when John Noble is busy. Which he should be because John Noble should be in everything, but he should especially be in Sleepy Hollow because he works so well with the cast.

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

This was a pretty great episode. I hope every season opens with Ichabod bursting out of a grave :allears:

No,I got the whys, I was just lost on the how. It was just something that stick out to me, the other thing being Ichabod's hatred of hipsters and artisinal marmalade.
