-- I love Sleepy Hollow too, for that exact reason. Luckily I have a lot of practice in setting aside reality :) And AoS? I'm still worried about how a particular plotline is going to go, but otherwise I'm in love with it. A bunch of my friends have said Skye annoyed them but so far I'm liking her. And of course Clark Gregg is *awesome*.Nice to see the list up and active again. What other things are folks watching? I saw the pilot of Ironsides and thought it was pretty great.
I want to like Ironside, but as a person with a physical disability, I'm pretty annoyed that they didn't get an actor with a physical disability to play the title role. We're out there. There are plenty of people who could do it well. I haven't actually sen the show yet, and I do plan to check it out. I'm eager to see how accurately living as a mobility impaired person is portrayed. I'm willing to give them at least a little slack, since I'm kind of pleased to see a mobility impaired character on television at all. But I'm going to be scrutinizing it fairly closely.

"I think that pretty much every form of fiction (I'd include fantasy, obviously) can actually be a real escape from places where you feel bad, and from bad places. It can be a safe place you go, like going on holiday, and it can be somewhere that, while you've escaped, actually teaches you things you need to know when you go back, that gives you knowledge and armour and tools to change the bad place you were in.
So no, they're not escapist. They're escape." - Neil Gaiman
