Daniel, Travis and Maddie drive to the compound’s parking garage. Daniel notices that Colonel Adams is missing from Travis’ pickup and is ticked off, but not surprised. He figured Travis would let the guy go. Really, didn’t we all?
The long national nightmare is over; Sleepy Hollow Season 3 is back and off to an encouraging start. The new showrunner, Clifton Campbell, knows what Sleepyheads endured and is righting wrongs. In the second season, heroine Abbie Mills got treated like a sidekick, hero Ichabod Crane was portrayed as a chump and tertiary characters were given the spotlight. The Season Three premiere, written by Albert Kim, and directed by actor Peter Weller, delivered a lot of what fans championed.
Quantico is the most glorious new show of the Fall season because Joshua Safran got a greenlight for a series about models unleashed on the FBI Academy. The creator bravely strolled into a meeting and proposed: “What if we did a Homeland meets Melrose Place show about the biggest terrorist attack since 9/11?” He was not escorted out of the room.

Abbie has an exciting career and has moved past Witnessing, but Ichabod has two things he can cling to, his knowledge of history and his ability to Witness. Without Abbie, he can’t do the latter. His family betrayed him, he must have been quite lonely.
Last week Miss Lawrence warned Jamal not to be shady. Is Jamal trying to get his soul back? He was sweet to Rhonda and okayish with Hakeem. Is he just messing with us, so we start to feel secure? Stop toying with our hearts, Jamal!
We have been celebrating tomorrow night’s Sleepy Hollow Season 3 premiere, with a seven-day lovefest. Yes, we are completely in love with Abbie Mills and swoon over that damn sexy hobo Ichabod Crane, but there’s another Team Witness member we adore, Abbie’s sister, the smart and nuanced action girl, Miss Jenny Mills.
Well, after last week’s escapades it seems that Theo Galavan decided to step it up a notch in what is now obviously his plan to take over the city. First he ‘persuades’ the mayor to disappear but not before saying that monsters are coming to cleanse the city in blood and fire. Next he takes the leash off Jerome and the other four nut jobs whose escape from Arkham he engineered
