Anyone else catch the premiere?
I feel like Fox dropped the ball in advertising this (I know, what a shock!). I'm sure they were trying to invoke some mystery, but I wondered how a show about the Headless Horseman would work. That wonder made me watch, but I could easily see much more discerning viewers avoiding the show for the same reason. (Never mind the cheesy plug during Bones! Hodgins: "I hope the DVR's recording Sleepy Hollow!" But seeing they have car commercials in the plot at times I shouldn't be surprised.)
[sblock]The tie-in of the Headless Horseman as Death in the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse was a interesting take. The Four White Trees demon was cool and creepy. The conspiracy surrounding competing good and evil covens should add good twists. And the previews of the upcoming season add in other forces of evil so we don't just focus on the HH and FWTD. Plus the humor was pretty good.[/sblock]
Overall I'm excited for the direction this show is headed.
