I'm not usually one for live-reactions, but this is turning out too squee-ee (ee?).
- Lol, even I've heard of Paul Revere's ride, thought I have no idea what it was about, but I appreciate the captioning. Also, pretty running horsies!
- Yes, Ichabod fixates on logistics!
- Dunno about the US, but i'd hazard a guess that this is true there too - in most of the developed world tap water is more monitored than whatever comes in 'mineral water' bottles, has useful chemicals, and is 100% fine to drink, all the time. Of course, Abbey could just be buying into the hype.
- No girls allowed!?! Well, at least Abbey is as annoyed as I am.
- The ex-boyfriend: villain or fridge-puppy? I'm sure it's not going to go well.
- "Rumors of my demise have been...pretty much true." lolololz. John Cho is so great every time he shows up. More of him, please!
- Ichabod on the phone. Just, awww. That really does not get old. It should, but it doesn't.
- Of course Ichabod is an enviromentalist as well as ur-abolitionist and feminist. I mean, duh.
- A sabre! Because, of course, a sabre!
- Dude! All that was before the credits!?! That's how it is done.
- Orlando Jones's perfect mildness is perfect.
- Ichabod being angry and frustrated - yay. Ichabod delivering ponderously nonsensical expositions from six episodes ago - less.
- I do like the conceit of the horseman looking for his head though. It's gruesome, logical, funny, bizarre, and not in the cheesy ridiculous way of most of the plot stuff.
- Off you tromp, headless horseman with an automatic rifle.
- Shucks, dead lab geek.
- Yes! Kill the Head montage!
- Ahhh! Head-skin lanterns!
- I like the use of iconic American history, even if I'm not familiar with it. It's much more fun than yet another tired rehash of the book of Revelation or something.
- I also like how no one appears to notice/care that Ichabod is wandering around in full-on period costume any more.
- Ichabod is annoyed by historiography. Aww. Also, it's mostly a funny scene, at the museum, but there are these lovely touches of him looking honestly distressed and alienated, which I appreciate. That's the line you want to keep walking, show!
- I want to see Ichabod go to London!!! Make Ichabod go to London! What small animal do we need to sacrifice to make that happen? Ichabod in London!
- He's going to recruit the web-cam chick to help him with his computer troubles, right? No?
- "meet me at the cemetary when night falls"?!? Well, fair enough. Ichabod has never seen a horror movie.
- Yes, talking about slavery. Yes, Ichabod doesn't know everything!
- Abbie's private life is totally Ichabod's business, as far as he's concerned.
- "All we really get is one another." Oh dear, you're not going to let that notion of "subtle" hold any sway, are you? I suppose there's nothing like a good bit of treacle occasionally.
- Poor headless horseman looking for his head and finding fakes. That's just mean. I totally feel for the fellow here. He somehow manages to get a lot of cruelly dashed hopefullness in the body language there.
- What? That was the end? Oh noez!
