Apr 19, 2014Great show. The season is very good with a lot of suspense, action, drama, character development, and surprises. The end of season left me wanting more. However, I was confused during some parts of it, but everything is explained as the series progresses.

Oct 5, 2013This reminds the early supernatural scary as hell and take you to the whole new level of unpredictable horror.When theirs a startrek connection always can expect best and this time also no exception.Awesome cast nice plot with well managed dialogues and high tech effects,Probably the best new show of fall.

Oct 3, 2013If you don't have a problem suspending your disbelief, you'll probably get some entertainment out of this. Unfortunately, I had trouble doing that. The writers don't appear to be sweating the details or even concerned with having it make sense. It's all about making a fast-paced show with nice visuals and action. On that level, it works. If you can turn off your brain enough to enjoy it.

Sep 17, 2013My initial skepticism at the concept was thrown at the door relatively quickly into the episode. Decent acting, good cinematography, and an intriguing plot point to this show having some promise. Hopefully they'll keep it up.

Sep 25, 2013extremely disappointing tv show
very bad acting, very thin and naive story.
I would be very surprised if this TV series had more than one (disappointing) season -
Sep 17, 2013An amazing, intense, creative horror action show that you can't help but love. This could be the best new show of the fall. It blends a classic story with age old myths and modern horror, and the result is scary and awesome.

Nov 20, 2013I really did NOT enjoy this. The acting was barely satisfactory, the accents were completely forced. It seems like they tried too hard, and just made an awful mess of a great story. I would not recommend wasting your time watching it.
-
Oct 5, 2013horrible show...bad acting with a very slow plot! The Cast could have been better selected...No surprises, very predictable...mediocre show at best! Good luck surviving beyond season 1!
-
Sep 18, 2013Not crazy about the cast (so far) but I'm going to withhold judgement because the story is compelling. I am rooting for this show. Fox is pretty quick with the cancellation trigger so I've promised myself not to get too invested.
-
Dec 9, 2013Why. A god awful show, hopefully it will be cancelled next year. John Cho and Clancy Brown deserve better. the story is unnecessarily convoluted, the characters have no depth and the stories have no meat, just meaningless banter ha serves o scare away the viewer with is approach o storytelling.
-
Sep 19, 2013Watched the first episode concerned it was going to be like Grimm, an interesting premise that never came close to working for me. I was pleasantly surprised. While not great, a few holes in the characters and plot that weakened this episode, I found myself drawn to the show, and I am looking forward watching it again next week.
-
Sep 27, 2013Really interesting premise, but I'm worried it's going to be a supernatural soap. Going right to thwarting the apocalypse doesn't leave a whole lot of room for growth. I enjoy it now, but if it goes on a winter hiatus, I might lose my interest, like I have with so many other soapy shows.

Nov 4, 2014Buffy the Vampire slayer reboot. The overacting and typical...two people talk, action scene, three people talk, multiple two people talk, action scene formula is so friggin tired....only people of lesser intelligence watch this show.
-
Mar 22, 2015I love the show but am I the only one who thinks that Nicole beharie's acting is extremely bad? Everyone else in the show act better than her. Her expressions is always too much and unnecessary, doesn't suit her role in th show as a cop.
-
Nov 25, 2013It's okay so far. It started out great but has kind of slowed down. I'm hopeful that it will get better before the season's end. I'm not set on all the actors than play the characters.
-
Sep 24, 2013A mix of action, horror, and a touch of comedy. The main actor and actress are fairly good in their roles and the show provides a very nice hour of entertainment. I recommend watching this series, or at least give it a try.
-
Sep 28, 2014Formulaic and curiously fantastical, Sleepy Hollow is actually one of the most interesting suspenses to come out of last year. Well-worth watching--especially for a fresh look at American history.

Oct 12, 2013The first episode was spectecular; as the show went on, it over-shadowed the headless horseman which was my greatest fear as i started watching. disappointed.
-
Apr 17, 2015This show is ridiculous. In the good way! The two stars, Mison and Beharie have a particularly strong chemistry; honestly, without that I would be a lot less inclined to watch this show. Otherwise, it's 13 episodes of headless shotgun-wielding fish-out-of-water buddy-cop supernatural-action fun.
-
Oct 12, 2013Do you like Teen Wolf (TV), True Lies, Vampire Diaries kinda shows? If so, then you won't mind this. Nothing original...just another way to pass a hour or so without feeling like watching a Duck Dynasty re-run. I wonder if it would last more than 2 Seasons though....

Oct 18, 2013I think Tom Mison does a great job, he makes the show for me. The mythology is fun, the stories are good, and, as someone else mentioned, the show doesn't take itself too seriously. I just wish they'd get Crane some new clothes, it's kind of annoying, haha.

Jan 18, 2014Great show. Not a big cop drama fan, so reluctant to watch. Glad I did it's keeps you watching with just the right amount of comedy,action, and drama. Really enjoy the combination of time travel, religion, and humor.

Sep 23, 2014it survived death. Will it survive a chairman-o war?
The typical mismash of occult [revisionist] history glossed over with mechanically unique lexical style. -
Jan 12, 2015What an amazing television series! Sleepy Hollow contains great actors with great chemistry and never ceases to disappoint me with its many interweaving and engaging plots. One of the best parts of the show, in my opinion, are the small Christmas themes and references scattered throughout. It's a great start to a great show!
-
Mar 30, 2018The story was well-planned: all the pieces of the jigsaw fit perfectly at the season finale.
The most remarkable pros are writers' imagination and the chemical between Abbie and Ichabod. However Katrina's storyline is very poor.

The mythology comes on hard and heavy in the first hour, but like ABC's blink-and-you-missed-it spring thriller "Zero Hour," it's ponderous yet silly.
-
Sleepy Hollow has an interesting premise and some terrific CGI effects (re: the Headless Horseman), but I didn’t buy into the show’s mystical/mythological/sci-fi overtones, a mishmash of history, witchcraft and muddled Biblical prophesy that left me confused instead of intrigued.
-
It’s a program that bounces around tonally and narratively, never feeling like its head is in the right place to know where it wants to go.
