Sleepy Hollow has yet to be guaranteed a fourth season renewal by FOX, but exec producer Cliffton Campbell has touched on the timeline of the supernatural drama, suggesting that future seasons would be required for any Abbie/Ichabod romance to blossom, ala Bones, per THR:
Bones makes a comment during the first hour about Ichabod making his relationship with Abbie romantic. That’s something that Sleepy Hollow fans have been clamoring for. Was that a joke or might he take that seriously?
Campbell: That’s a wink to the audience, certainly to the ‘shippers — the ones who would like to see something like that happen. It’s fun to see that Booth and Brennan at one point had a similar professional relationship. There was a similar chemistry that was sort of undeniable. I don’t recall how long it took themselves to realize that internally in the show, but it seems to me 10 seasons later that it’s worked out pretty well. [The line] is just a look into the potential future of this show in terms of their relationship. It’s not something we are actively pursuing. That’s a fun time line that any show has fun exploring and teasing the audience and giving them a little bit of what they want.
