Re: vague spoilers
(Anonymous) 2015-10-11 03:01 am (UTC)(link)The finale would definitely be on my "good episodes" list, yes. And if this season going well leads to the show getting renewed, then yay! And if the show doesn't get renewed, then at least the series would've ended on a much more positive note for the fans and shown it could redeem itself. So win-win either way in the end, I'd say :).
Very true about that attitude applying to a lot of shows. And with Katrina, yeah, I definitely agree they should've done a lot more with her. I wanted to see her using her magic, whether she went evil or not, and I definitely think she should've gotten some better storylines.
An example of my comment about "good idea, weak execution"-I liked the idea of her being sympathetic to Henry's plight, and I think that could've been an interesting angle to expand upon for her character, whether she went evil or not. Not just for Henry, either-that could've worked for any of the other supernatural foes she and/or the others fought or worked with. There could've been some good things done with the "sympathy for the devil", so to speak, angle for her. But they didn't really handle that very well and just kept it being a circular argument between her and Ichabod, so that concept kind of fizzled out.
And once she got into the 21st century, it could've been interesting to see how she handled the sudden and dramatic changes as a woman-we had Ichabod's bumbling, amusing reactions to the new century, it'd be interesting to get that from a woman's perspective. She sees all the rights and privileges women have now that she didn't get in her day. Would that have had an impact on her powers somehow? Would that have affected whether or not she went evil, and if she did, how she went evil? Stuff like that. I wouldn't have necessarily made that a BIG storyline for her, but it could've been a good thing to touch on a little for her.
But ah, well. They dealt with it last season, and it's understandable the show wants to just move on and keep going forward, and I think that's a wise way to go. And if the drama and other show problems got to the actress herself, it's certainly better for her that she was able to move on and away from it all, too. So yeah. I think you're right in that they handled it as best they could.
It was disheartening to go into the tumblr tag last season.
Not on Tumblr, but I've certainly heard about the place and oh, yeah, I can just imagine how much people must've been ranting! The few places I did go online (TV Line and SpoilerTV), though, there were a lot of disappointed and angry fans there, too. Very depressing indeed, especially considering how much fun everyone had with the show the first season. So here's hoping this positive trend continues!
I'd also like to see Jenny and Ichabod work more together because that scene they had in the premiere was really cute.
Ooh, yeah, definitely! I seem to remember them having a couple good moments last season, too (I want to say it was in the season premiere? Something involving a car?), and it was nice to touch upon that again. I like it when shows explore the different dynamics among the characters, and it's only natural Ichabod will have more interaction with anyone who's close to Abbie in general, so...yeah. Bring on those scenes, indeed :D.
I like Pandora, too. I like the mix of innocent and shady she's got going on, and agreed that it is good to see her using her powers so much. I hope she proves to be a REALLY good antagonist for the gang.
And she and Ichabod practically have the same haircut; it's adorable. lol.
Hahahaha, I know, right :D? If the show ever addresses that, that'd be awesome. I kind of missed Ichabod's long hair at first, but I've gotten used to the shorter hair and it suits him nicely :).
Re: vague spoilers
Very, very seldom do you come across an episode or season that has absolutely nothing to offer; even the worst shows have their moments.
Not just for Henry, either-that could've worked for any of the other supernatural foes she and/or the others fought or worked with.
Had the writing been good, that would've been an interesting angle and could've made her a more engaging character.
She sees all the rights and privileges women have now that she didn't get in her day.
Huh... you know, that could've been an insightful character arc for her, not to mention an empowering one. It's a shame the show didn't touch that.
And if the drama and other show problems got to the actress herself, it's certainly better for her that she was able to move on and away from it all, too.
Yea, I wouldn't have blamed her for wanting to leave. I know at least a few of the SH fans were quite rude to her, which is just unacceptable; she is not her character, and she doesn't even make the decisions about her character.
I want to say it was in the season premiere? Something involving a car?
Can't remember all the details, but I do think they shared a car ride at one point; I think that's around the time Ichabod saw Abbie in his mirror (Jenny was beside him, and Abbie was contacting him from purgatory)?
I hope she proves to be a REALLY good antagonist for the gang.
I admit I am a little disappointed because I wanted Pandora and Abbie to interact more before they realized she was a big bad (Pandora almost seemed flirty in that first episode...I was all for that, lol) but I'm still pleased with what we've seen of her. I hope she sticks around for the whole season, even if we get some lesser villains too.
If the show ever addresses that, that'd be awesome.
Well, Abbie certainly noticed the cut, but not how similar it is to her own. Come on, show! And I thought Ichabod's long hair was gorgeous, but Tom pulls this off nicely too.
