Of course, Braugher's only the greatest actor of his generation, so it's not terribly unexpected.

Everything Winston was hilarious. It's the winter of Winston!

Her bit coming to Sandberg with the "criminals allowed to escape" list was good, too. Her pride and competitiveness should be good comic fodder and prevent her from being the rational boring lady character.

I loved Bitch23 as well, but the two have basically nothing in common.

Seriously. Prison rape jokes? You did, like, eight beats of just prison rape jokes? And then you have Schmidt juggling two women who have been presented as more than intelligent enough to see through him?

Braugher's deliver on everything is always incredible.

All of the elements you listed above are characteristic of pretty much any supernatural procedural. Grimm is much more directly a rip-off of Buffy and Angel, for instance.

Oh, absolutely. You have to do terrible damage to Revelation, which is obviously about the Roman Empire and written in a visionary language any ancient reader knew not to take literally, to read it as a literal description of a set of real events to come.

Plus there's going to be a whole Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell arc where Crane and Abby have to save her from the dreamworld that, I don't know, say, her coven with the help of John and Abigail Adams cast her into at the moment of her death to save her and preserve the secrets. So that'll be a thing.

It's also worth noting that this is a method of biblical interpretation which was totally unknown in the 18th century. People read Revelation for various kinds of meaning, but not as a literal guide to the end-times. That's a reading that only comes up with Dispensationalism and the anti-modern reaction of the early…

In terms of sustainability, they seem to be ripping off a little bit of Buffy and the X-Files. The apocalypse is coming, starting in Sleepy Hollow, and the present-day cop and Ichabod Crane have to fight the darkness. Also his wife is trapped in a dreamworld and, um, witches and Boston Tea Party and I can't wait for…

Wait, you just yadda yadda yadda'd "the headless horseman is one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, whom George Washington foresaw would rise in the New York suburbs so with the help of a band of New York witches he sent Ichabod Crane to kill the horseman and Crane woke up in the present when evil forces raised…

This was seriously my favorite new show in years. I was legitimately scared by the horseman head and the clouded devil figure, the image of the four white trees was wonderfully unsettling, Behairie is *fantastic*, selling her grief over her partner and just the whole of the premise with total confidence.

That chief just doesn't get it!.

Yeah, I'm totally buying in, too.

They said that. They were demonstrably wrong. As usual for Dubner/Levitt, they went for the attention-grabbing headline rather than actually spending time with the data.

She was great playing Faith-as-Buffy.

This review is troubling.

Yeah, I mean, I get what Dowd is going for, and Polanski the filmmaker isn't the worst comparison, but I just don't think you can use Polanski the filmmaker in a one-sentence comparison like that. The associations brought to mind aren't filmic unless the reviewer spends a paragraph explaining why they're using the…

Hey, cool, I was there! Fun. Didn't realize it was going to be on teevee.
