Sleepy Hollow Season 5? FOX chairman Gary Newman has weighed in on the show’s early renewal prospects, noting it has a “tough” road ahead, per Deadline:
“Bringing a show out on Friday night is tough. We love the show, we think the storytelling has always been incredibly inventive, Art Ichabod is fantastic.”
Referencing the controversial exit of female lead Nicole Beharie at the end of Season 4, Newman added:
“We lost one of the core characters this year which required a real reset and it isn’t unexpected that some of the audience would have peeled off. But our hope is that with a really compelling storyline that they pitched to us that may bring people back to it. With a Friday night show, we expect a greater amount of delayed viewing than what you get on other nights of the week, and we thought there was an opportunity for word of mouth to build that show and over the course of the season to see delayed viewing bring that number up.”
Stay tuned as we continue to monitor the cancel/renew status of Sleepy Hollow Season 5…

I want this show to continue. I wish they had not lost “Abby” because Ichabod and she were a wonderful team. I hope they can find someone who will be able to match the chemistry between those two actors. I think there is a lot more storylines that can be told.

I Love this show and Grimm-damn the PTB. But the christians must be out in force again, afraid their diety and prayers will lose the battle. Utter hogwash.How foolish. Want to cast out the devil? Aim your prayers at Washington,dial Orange Mad Hatter.

Wasn’t going to return to watch after Nicole left but I forgot to delete if from my DVR. I have to say I’m really enjoying the reworked Sleepy Hollow.
