I didn't want to watch time travelling Ichabod. Could easily have had a straighter adaptation without turning it into a present-day police show with a supernatural twist.

.....the source material is a ghost story, bb, without which there is no narrative and regarding which is the only memorable part of the story. how are you removing the supernatural aspect here in a way that a general audience will gaf about?

As I've clarified in other responses, bb, including the one you're responding to, I'm not objecting to all supernatural aspects in the story. I would have preferred a straighter (i.e. truer to the source material) adaptation, as the OP would regarding the show in the secret. My issue was with the time travel element that actually took away a lot of the originality and creativity of the source to instead give us what at least at first was basically another "female cop and male outsider team up to solve mysteries" show, which were everywhere at the time.

Of course, that ended up being the least of the problems with that shitshow of a production.

lmao, that's not so much a clarification as a completely different sentiment, but good on you for understanding what you originally said you wanted wouldn't have been interesting in the least, since you obviously know that this could have been a limited series about how Brom Bones terrorized an idiot played "straighter" even though that's got absolutely no tension.

Sorry, next time I'll be much clearer about my sentiments about every single, minor detail of my anonymous posts to a fandom site late at night my time. But good on you for understanding that not everyone agrees what would or would not be interesting entertainment.

Oh wait, you apparently don't understand that. Never mind.

Why are you talking about minor details? It's the main detail regarding the supernatural you changed. First you didn't want it, then you realized it was core to the source material, and you had to change your tune. Anyway, nobody was talking about what "everyone" needs, just you know, the general population a network makes a show for, who tend to like narrative. I'm not being obscure, dear, keep up.
