? But it's not really a Christian show. It has creatures from other cultures and the way it treats Christianity would be described as sacrilegious by any more conservative Christians.

Seriously, this. Its pretty much mocking every religion imaginable at this point. It takes ideas from various mythologies, puts them together and completely changes them. Yes, it covers more Christian/Jewish/Muslim mythology than anything else, but it is just as mocking towards them as anything else.

NAYRT

I'm not actually that bothered by it, so for me the problem isn't the way it portrays Christianity as the fact that the Judeo-Christian storylines are the ones that have taken over. I get that it's a common point of reference for a lot of people, but since they'd dabbled elsewhere I was really disappointed once that became the biggest part of the overall mythos. :(

THIS.

I was so excited at first because the focus was on urban legends (Bloody Mary!), mystery-based ghost stories, etc, and have gotten more and more discouraged now that it's an endless slog of demon, angel, heaven, hell, blah.

(Which was a lot of the reason I was so eager to check out Sleepy Hollow, to be honest, and I facepalmed when they brought in the bible in the very first episode. Oh well. At least that one's still having fun.)

DA

I agree with you and the above anon. It was awesome when it focused on urban legends and folklore that doesn't get much exposure on supernatural shows. When it started focusing on Christianity, that went out the window and I slowly lost interest. Tbh the only angel I liked was Zachariah and I stopped watching he died. He was such a magnificent bastard.

At least Sleepy Hollow was upfront from the start about it incoporating Christian mythos.
