Show Review

Rooster Recap: “Sleepy Hollow” Episode 8: Necomancer

My job is to be critical. I get paid, right now, in self-satisfaction and smugness. I like to take long hard looks at things and determine whether they are worth my time and energy. There are plenty of ridiculous things that I love, and plenty of things I -should- like, but don’t. Sleepy Hollow has…

Rooster Recap: “Sleepy Hollow” Episode 7: The Midnight Ride

$10 says this episode is about how Ichabod Crane and Paul Revere are best friends. Within mere frames of the recap I am proven correctly. Prepare for the latest inundation of history and the supernatural! If they’re going to do this show for seven years/seasons, I wonder what they’ll do after they run out of…

Rooster Recap: “Sleepy Hollow” Episode 3: For the Triumph of Evil

The episode opens with a freaky dream. A lot of people dream in this show, and it’s often indicative of what’s going on (or what’s going to happen). By the way, if anyone didn’t know, Abbie’s sister Jenny is in a psych ward for the same ‘vision’ Abbie had. I think there’s probably a little…

Rooster Recap: “Sleepy Hollow” Episode 1: Pilot

Well, here we are again. Sarah here, from SciFridays, taking a recap of another Fox show. We all know how well that turned out last time, *coughTheFollowingcough*.  Actually, the reason these are starting three episodes in is because of my inherent skepticism that this would be a good show.

Rooster Recap: “Sleepy Hollow” Episode 2: Blood Moon

This was the episode to win me over. It might surprise exactly none of you to discover that I am a huge Supernatural fan, and I love procedurals. So it was with some glee that I discovered that Sleepy Hollow would be following a ‘monster of the week’ plan for the foreseeable future.  Do you know what…

Second Breakfast Enjoys a Crossover Power Hour!

Crossover! Does any word fill the common viewer with as much excitement and anticipation? Perhaps spinoff… maybe. Crossovers are fun and mostly extend to hypotheticals like Wolverine vs. Terminator? or Boba Fett vs. Alien? or Gypsy Danger vs. Giant Balrog? or Batman vs. Anyone? Most realized crossovers are for TV and occur when a studio…

Rooster Recap: ‘Dexter’ Season 8, Episode 5: “This Little Piggy”

Disclaimer: If you watch Dexter, you know what a foul mouth Debra Morgan has.  Well, it’s rubbed off on me and I might speak accordingly. Remember what a clusterfuck it was when retired Special Agent Frank Lundy died only four episodes into Season 4?  I had heard that the fourth season of Dexter was one of the best…
