Directed by Len Wiseman Story by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman, Phillip Iscove & Len Wiseman Teleplay by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Phillip Iscove Catch ‘Sleepy Hollow’ on Fox, Mondays @ 2100 ET BEWARE OF SPOILERS! ‘Sleepy Hollow’ is my first pilot viewing for the 2013-2014 TV season and I have to say it’s been a good way to get the ball rolling.

BEWARE OF SPOILERS This week Batman ‘66 concludes the Mad Hatter arc with ‘A Chase in London Town’ which picks up right where last weeks chapter left off with the crown jewels stolen from the Tower of London and the Dynamic Duo making chase as Mad Hatter makes his escape.
