Apr. 11 Sleepy Hollow: I saw the pilot to this show
on Sept. 24, 2013.
It was in 1781 in Hudon Valley,
NY.
There is a battle scene and it’s very exciting. Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) is a soldier and he
cuts off the head of a soldier.
Crane wakes up in a cave.
He climbs out into the woods and it’s foggy. He almost gets hit by a car. There is a sign that says “Village
of Sleepy Hollow.”
Cut to 2 cops. One is
an old white guy and the other is a young black woman named Abbie Mills (Nicole
Beharie).
A priest watches them.
The cops get a call and they go to the stables. The horses are spooked.
Abbie finds a shot gun by the truck. Abbie finds a guy with his head cut off.
They keep shooting at the Headless Man, but he keeps
coming. He then rides out in a white
horse.
Andy Brooks (John Cho from Harold and Kumar go to White
Castle) gets a call about Crane
walking around. Abbie sees Crane.
Abbie: That’s not him (Headless Man). He had a red overcoat and a ban on his head.
Cop: I cut off his head.
Crane does a polygraph test and tells about himself: I’m a
spy for General George Washington.
There is a flashback.
Crane: I was in triage.
My wife Katrina is a nurse there.
Captain Frank Irving (Orlando Jones) gives a $1 bill to
Crane: You won the war, 250 yrs ago.
They put him in the psych ward. Irving
won’t let Abbie talk to Crane.
Abbie: I need closure.
Abbie talks to Crane.
Abbie: Slavery has been abolished 150 yrs ago.
She drives Crane to the psych ward.
Crane: You didn’t tell them about the Headless Horseman.
Crane is playing with opening the car window.
Abbie: Show me the cave where you woke up from.
Crane sees Priest in present time. There is flashback of the 18 century past.
Crane finds book: This was burned with me.
Crane: This is the passage.
Washington told me to kill
a man with a bow on his hand. He is
Death. One of the 4 horsemen. He is here to finish what he started.
Horseman attacks Priest.
Priest: I will never tell you where it is.
Horseman chops off his head.
Abbie sees Priest, dead.
Irving: Take
Crane to a mental ward or you’re suspended.
Crane sees the grave Katrina Crane. She was burned at the stake for witch craft.
Cut to mental hospital.
Abbie: My sister Jenny and I were walking home and saw 3
white trees.
We blacked out.
Abbie: People said we were crazy. She’s been in and out of these places. People say you’re crazy. I understand.
Abbie enters Sheriff Corbin’s office and finds the key
behind frame and unlocks file cabinet.
Abbie listens to tapes of witch covens. On the tape it says: “Abbie and Jenny Mills
saw these 4 white trees” like the same case.
Crane wakes up and there’s that bird again. He sees Katrina (Katia Winter).
Katrina: My grave hold the head of the horseman. You blood he’s merged. You’re connected. We bound the cave to save you. If the horseman gets his skull, the other 3
will come. It will be the end. The sun will destroy him.
Abbie picks up Crane from the mental hospital.
Abbie: Walk fast before she realizes the release form is a
fake.
Andy enters his place and it’s broken into. The Horseman is there.
Andy: I know where it is.
Crane starts digging the grave. Abbie is there.
The head is in a jar.
Horseman shoots at them and they’re running.
Abbie shoots at the Horseman.
Andy drives by.
Andy knocks out Abbie and Abbie bites Andy’s thumb.
Abbie points gun at Andy.
2 cops shot at Horseman.
Horseman shoots at the cops and cruisers.
The sun rises and the Horseman leaves.
Irving; 2 cops corroborate the story. You were going to go to Quantico
to be in the FBI next week.
Abbie: Not anymore.
Andy in jail.
Horseman there and kills Andy.
Abbie and Crane see the Horseman in the mirror.
Apr. 21 My opinion: The pilot was good. Good writing and acting. However, I didn’t connect with it, so I
didn’t watch it after the pilot.
If you like supernatural stories, you may be interested in
it.
The show has been renewed for a second season.
Apr. 27 Shailene Woodley: You may know her on Secret
Life of the American Teenager or in the new movie Divergent. I read that movie’s got good reviews. On a Yahoo news video, it had the interview
of her on Teen Vogue. Woodley said she
didn’t like Twilight because it was a unhealthy relationship. The couple date, he leaves her, and then she
goes and wants to kill herself. That’s
not a good message.
Here’s a comment:
val21mmer: I have a newsflash for you, Shailene: You aren't
supposed to send ANY messages - at least, we're not waiting for them. Messages
meant to impress young people are being sent by their parents and educators -
and if they failed at that, your "messages" are too little too late.
Let's face it: we're watching movies for entertainment, not for
"messages" or life-building skills. We get these elsewhere.
So get off the high horse and just do the job you're being paid to do: pretending to a character from a fairy tale

My opinion: There are more opinions where people diss
Twilight and Secret Life, and saying it’s just a movie.
When I write, I do want to send a positive message out. I want to educate and entertain with my
writing. In my scripts there is a good
message out. I have a blog, so I do send
positive messages out.
It could be really important and informative news about jobs
and current events. Or it could be
something like “Watch this TV show.”
