We’re chatting up the season 2 Sleepy Hollow finale, “Tempus Fugit”. We have tons of Abbie being awesome, Katrina showing her true colors, Ichabod with a cell phone, Ben Franklin and Grace Dixon! This finale was a total blast, and we have tons of clips to chat about. Check out the podcast and let us know what you thought about the finale. Show notes below.
We both loved the finale. Although I was worried going in about how they would treat Abbie in the time of slavery, she was in control of her actions throughout the episode. Her meeting with Grace Dixon was a real highlight and quite touching.
It was nice to see Ichabod in the place of believing Abbie much like she had to in the premier episode. We also got to see nice recalls to the early Ichabod who was so confused by modern technology like cell phones (no less smart phones with those tricky “slide” directions).
This was a beautiful episode. The opening battle scene was wonderfully shot and could have been pulled from any big budget film. The period location of the entire episode looked great and seemed natural. The flash forward at the end of the episode was a great treat for the pause button.
Both guest stars, Grace Dixon and Ben Franklin, showed Sleepy Hollow at its very best. Ben was funny and genial, while also getting very serious and having one of the best lines ever on the show about Abbie being “The American Dream”. Meanwhile it wasn’t only seeing Abbie meet Grace, her ancestor, but how Grace was so key to the entire story.
Overall this was a great finale, and Sleepy Hollow easily deserves a Season 3. Let’s #RenewSleepyHollow.
Sleepy Hollow airs at 9/8c on Fox.
