Hi Dorothy, I've been watching it and, I too, agree that it's kind of silly in it's fun. I'm not that thrilled with the devilish crap. I don't normally watch horror stuff like "Coven" etc. it's just not my thing. I realize this is sappy fictional stuff, but it still is making me just a tad uncomfortable. I love, love, love Ichabod and the gal (can't remember her name at the moment) but I haven't fully bought into the show yet and may not stick with it. :)

Yeah, the demon/horror stuff makes me real uncomfortable (perhaps because -- unlike BtVS -- it's asking you to be seriously afraid and feel completely overwhelmed by the evil forces arrayed against you, rather than strongly emphasizing the human capacity to mock, to fight, and to triumph over nightmare creatures that take themselves way too seriously). I don't like getting hit over the head, week after week, with horror stuff that serves no higher metaphorical purpose other than to be horrifying and debilitating.

What I do enjoy at times is the character stuff (Ichabod and the Mills sisters, and especially Abby), and the 'man out of time' comments that can be very witty or amusing at times (like a week ago, when the episode opened with what turned out to be Ichabod reducing the Northstar/Onstar operator to romantic tears as he told her his tale and urged her to keep hope alive for genuine love).
