This seems to be another show that didn't know why it was a success. Fans praised the diversity, so they brought in more white guys and gave less airtime to the POC. Fans complained about Katrina, so they get the same, or even more.

I don't think it helps that Tom Mison is just so vacuous as an actor. When I watch he's just taking up space for me.

I was mostly interested in Abbie's sister, and she seems to be there now for just a sister love triangle, which I doubt anyone wants to see.

I don't have a problem with Mison. Crane's one liners are part of the charm as his exaggerated reactions to modern society. They're funny but getting predictable. This past episode the jokes felt forced and not organic. I think they honestly don't know what to do with Katrina. She isn't being utilized properly and the subplot of her staying with Headless is tedious because 1) Headless isn't stupid nor patient 2) There's no forward movement. I am definitely not interested in a tri with the sisters over Hawley nor one with Headless and Ichabod over Katrina. I've been reading posts from various boards stating that SL is becoming a rip off of "Supernatural". That's never a good thing. Last week Henry was only shown at the end to grind a piece of artifact into dust and look menacing. Such a waste. And I can't say enough they need to get back to the bond between Ichabod and Abbie. Abbie comes off as patronizing, it's as if she only tolerates Ichabod most times. It's a far cry from the season premiere where their bond was showcased beautifully.

If Katrina doesn't fall in love with Death/Abraham and turn evil then this show is wasting my time.

Who is this Hawley character and why is he even on the show? It's like the EP said, "we need someone the dudebros can relate to so we can bring in a different demographic". I am unimpressed!

I am also upset that they have marginalized Captain Irving. Is he or is he not one of the leads on this show?

I like the monster of the week. I just need it all to tie into a main over arching plot.

IMO Katrina is what is killing this show

I loved the Abbie-centric episode lastweek Monday. It was great to have the Mills sisters front and center for a change and it was pretty emotional, which was surprising. When they were saying their goodbyes to the mother and the guys were standing around looking clueless would it have hurt the writers to throw a bone to the Ichabbie shippers and have the guys comfort them instead of the sisters embracing each other? Sheesh!

Still wondering what ever happened to The Kindred demon they summoned. Apparently he's still wondering around aimlessly.

The show runner clearly is clueless

Yeah I'm finally done with this show. This latest episode just bored me.This isn't the show I grew to love last season.

Another example of showrunner tin-earedness. Saying "trust me" is never a good sign (it's like those Lost hacks). And just no good, clear answers on anything. And more Katrina boosting.

He is going to do more episodes revolving around Katrina, ugh, he doesn't get how universally hated this twit is.

I won't be surprised if this show doesn't last past Season 2

Ugh what a shoddy mess this show has become. I feel like it's written by people who don't like or understand sci-fi/fantasy. I'd already made my decision to quit but this finale showed me that was a good idea. The writer for this show reminds me a lot of Ron Carlivati: immature, petty and drunk on his own arrogance but mostly just untalented. He doesn't have the vision or commitment that genre shows require nor does he have the self-awareness to realize that. Damn. So much wasted potential.

The ole bait and switch!

I gave up the show after 3 eppies this season. I saw the b&s coming at the end of S1 but I still tried to hang in there. I came in this thread after reading VH's latest post in the Empire thread.

I think I watched 4 epis before I gave it up. Hawley and Jeremy and Katrina Crane are not what I signed on for with this show.

Same. Jeremy, Faux Sawyer and WhisperTits ate this show alive.

Hawley is apparently gone, at least.

They got the memo there. Good for them. Lol. Those Cranes are more problematic.

Now that Hawley's gone he's the least of the show's problems. Last week they had Jenny mention Crane and Abby weren't spending much time together simply to appease the audience. Katrina is everywhere. She's like a distant relative who overstayed her welcome. Abbie is now playing second fiddle to Katrina to solve everything. It's absolutely ridiculous that they now cannot make a uniform decision without consulting Katrina for her infinite wisdom in magical prowess. If the writers think the solution to falling ratings is making the show episodic rather than serial they're delusional. I've come to the conclusion that the dynamics that made the show so unique and refreshing in season 1 is never coming back.
