The fat pink curse rides again aka why does every show we like suffer a sophomore slump? We chat a bit about Empire, The Flash, and HTGAWM before diving into the latest Sleepy Hollow episode. Crane has two awkward dates that we could’ve been spared and a Caribbean lady wrecks havoc on the Hollow (likely because of the lack of good roti). Plus, Grace Dixon is back and delightful as usual.

Here’s what you missed last time:

We go IN on this blatant crossover episode so prepare yourselves for some critical tea.

Next Time:  

Sleepy Hollow –  The Art of War The race of save Jenny Mills from a killer rock is on!

Sleepy Hollow’s showrunners continue to misunderstand their fanbase. We go IN on this blatant crossover episode so prepare yourselves for some critical tea. We also chat about why the show seems determined to render Abbie sexless–despite her very obvious attractiveness–and why the show’s historical fiction doesn’t really push boundaries.

Once again, welcome special guest @melinapendulum who’s filling in for M!

Here’s what you missed last time:

We bid our time until Betsy rides off into the sunset in the arms of another.

Next Time:  

Sleepy Hollow –  This Red Lady From Caribee Brap brap brap, Pandora calls upon on a fabulous West Indian gyal to wreak some havoc in the Hollow.

Crane continues to test Abbie’s patience (and ours) by regressing as a character. Pandora remains a flawless thorn in the witness’ side by conjuring up a ghastly creature that makes us glad that we no longer have baby teeth to lose. Jenny and Abbie get a little development and battle someone else’s childhood demons for a change. And we bid our time until Betsy rides off into the sunset in the arms of another.

We’re also joined by special guest melinapendulum!

A sexist raven flies through our window and drops us a Sexy Betsy gossip bomb. M and J attempt to stop talking about Hamilton for a whole 2 minutes. We wonder if Ichabod will end up chained in Miss Cornith’s basement. And of course, we imagine that at some point Abbie will be told to stop bringing her boyfriend to FBI crime scenes.

Here’s what you missed last time:

Fat Pink Cast goes to New York Comic Con and finds themselves wondering why Sleepy Hollow’s PR team can’t get it together.

Fat Pink Cast goes to New York Comic Con and finds themselves wondering why Sleepy Hollow’s PR team can’t get it together. We also lament the creation of sexy Betsy and wish she were more like the Schuyler sisters instead of a Kate Beaton parody. And last, but not least…we question why every lady within 20 miles is after Ichabod’s Bedfordshire Clanger.

Kill the cliche, and let the man be born! Stay tuned as we play crabs in a bucket thanks to some Nymeria-related news, because hey, when you consider making a character black, it’s just as good as actually casting a black actress in the role. Of course this logic works perfectly in the Game of Thrones universe where you don’t have to remove your clothes, but you’re going to choose to anyway because boobs. Speaking of removing clothing, hey Daario, do the curtains match the draps?

Also, Outlander goes full Ringling Brothers Circus at 57 minutes!

Oh, and it turns out Rhaegar was one of those guys…

We follow the Leftenant Nicole Awesome Beharie on her adventures in the 70’s…(the 1770s),  Marvel as she meets up with alternate universe Ichabod—complete with pilgrim hat.  Observe awkwardly as Ben Franklin calls her a dream boat and squeal when she meets Granny Grace.   This is why Irving wasn’t going “If you want him, you can buy him on eBay.”

On this episode of Sleepy Pink Cast, we ponder the “every show we touch disappoints us” curse and chat about Sleepy Hollow’s future.

What’s the M in a certain person’s middle name stand for? Why are Ichabod’s quirks driving us up a wall instead of amusing us like last season? Are we still sailing the #ichabbie ship at full mast? Why won’t this show let Abbie be great?

(So, how exactly are Moloch and Henry and Katrina related?   Henry and Moloch share the same mother, but Moloch is Henry’s surrogate dad and Henry impregnated Katrina.   Very confusing.)

We debate why Hawley is still here, why they did the thing with Orlando Jones, and why trees and villains on Sleepy Hollow turn blacker when they get eviler.

One of them calls us “Fat Pink Cats.”  We…don’t mind.

Sing me a song of a series on Starz

Say did that lass fall through time

Merry of soul, she did get much banged

But the book series it’s based on is….oi.

We don’t have a recap of Sleepy Hollow 2.10 Magnum Opus for you this week, but back in October we caught up with Tom Mison and John Noble at FOX’s Sleepy Hollow-een Pumpkin Patch in NYC, so we hope you enjoy this special interview edition of Sleepy Pink Cast instead!

*Trigger Warning for discussion of mental illness, suicide, and institutionalisation* 

On this episode of Fat Pink Cast,

“Do you guys like white boys in dirty coats with long hair? Do you guys like Sleepy Hollow? Are you guys aware that there are diverse people on this show? But would you rather see Ichabod in the front, looking serious about standing in front of all the people of colour on the show–and Katrina? Well then, we have the magazine for you!”

“I feel like they should at least make it Katrina’s choice to kill Henry.”

“Is it paranoid to be constantly looking over your shoulder thinking that someone’s gonna hurt you when you’re walking down the street in your neighborhood at night when that happens?”

“Eyes open, Head up, Trust no one; this is like what black mothers tell their kids now.”

“How scary is it that she was right? They took a shortcut and look at what happened!”

“Is it too late to sell Nick Hawley to you?” “Yeah.”

“We saved you because Frank Irving deserves better than this flop plot.”

On this episode of Fat Pink Cast,

The birth of the #AbbieMillsDeservesBetter tag.

“These two freeloaders are chillin in Abbie’s daddy’s cabin.”

“I would be really angry if they did redeem Henry at this point–after all the shit he’s put Irving through, all the shit he’s put Abbie through, all the shit he’s put Jenny through.”

“This episode reminded me of Sailor Moon.”

“Clearly she was gon’ get killed, her name was Becky.”

“Abbie needs permission to date a flop now?”

“I’d like to propose a drinking game–we should take a sip every time Ichabod and Katrina say ‘thank you’ to Abbie.” “Ha, we’d be sober.”

“At the end of the day, when it comes to Katrina as a character, I’m just angry they’re straight up writing her with the most sexist tropes ever.”

“It’d have been hilarious if they had Katrina in a snuggy at the beginning of the episode.”

“I think, just because the writers have Abbie saying what they want the audience to feel because she represents the audience, doesn’t mean we’re actually gonna buy it, especially when you just showed Abbie doing all the work. It’s really incongruous. You can’t force people to believe something about a character that you haven’t shown to be true.”

“Fly off into the sky on a dragon, far far away from all these terrible white people.”

Here’s what you missed last time around:

Look like someone’s got a case of the Wendigo!

On this episode of the Fat Pink Cast, we list all the reasons why Nick Hawley needs to go (so he can stop stealing all of Jenny Mills’ screentime) and the many ways in which the show can accomplish his exit. We also chat about the shining light in the darkness that is Abbie Mills and Joe Corbin’s complicated, but loving relationship.

Trust me, you’ll love our recap of better days before “Deliverance.”

It’s Crane on the Brain as the Sleepy Pink Cast reviews the meh episode of jealous ex girlfriends and fridging x2.

We break down the real reason the mug of microaggressions doomed Ms. Caroline, Ichabod’s Starbucks name, as well as Katrina’s ineffective writing style and more effective murdering style.

Here’s what you missed last time around:

Join us as we recap of our adventures at New York Comic Con (including our tale of playing good cop/bad cop at the Sleepy Hollow Panel), interviewing Marguerite Bennett and last, but not least, Sleepy Hollow episode 2.4, “Go Where I Send Thee.”

Find out what’s “like the plot of a porno,” why we want Ichabod to go to Olive Garden, our theories about how Ichabod’s bone flute led Abbie to the Pied Piper, and why little Sarah Lancaster-Weiss is probably going to need therapy for the rest of her life.

So it turns out that it’s money?   Fat Pink Cast dishes out new Sleepy Hollow casting scoop and explains why the Mills sister are like “Frozen”, but better.  Is Nick Hawley is actually Santa Claus?  Plus, learn about the neurological condition that causes Hodoring, and why righteous rage is all the rage.

Will Daniel Henney ever guest star? What is Katrina’s maiden name? Where did Abraham learn how to read? Does Ichabod call all his special friends Leftenant? Will someone please free Frank Irving? Is there life after battling the Headless Horseman and a giant evil Kinect simultaneously?

We attempt to answer these questions and more in our recap of the latest Sleepy Hollow episode 2.2 —The Kindred!

Before Sleepy episode 2.2—The Kindred airs tonight, here’s our recap of 2.1—This is War!

Find out fascinating information such as when did the term “alarm clock” come into fashion? What’s up with Ben Frankin’s modern day Philly accent and why did he advocate for sleeping with older women? Why is Katrina similar to an iphone?

Batten down the hatches as the Fat Pink Cast staggers back in with more Fall TV news.   But first, it wouldn’t be Fat Pink Cast without a deconstruction of race and representation in Game of Thrones–especially in light of the new Dorne casting (Arianne who?)

Next up, Marissa interviews the cast of Sleepy Hollow (!!!) straight from the San Diego Comic Con press line.  (Yes, she’s the awkward one asking about diversity.)

Last but not least, Jonelle and Sade explain exactly what is a Draeden and what makes one special.  (Hint: not a vampire)
