Ichabod Crane learns about Star Wars
Here’s what’s up in the world of TV for Monday, January 26. All times are Eastern.
Top pick
Sleepy Hollow (Fox, 9 p.m.): There’s an estate heist afoot on this week’s Sleepy Hollow, in which Nick Hawley enlists the help of Ichabod, Abbie, and Jenny to take down his evil childhood caretaker. If you thought your babysitter was bad, at least you weren’t raised by a criminal who’s also a literal monster! As of last week, Frank Irving is back, and now he’s adjusting to his new life. Abbie also teaches Ichabod about Star Wars. Check out the episode and then check back at TV Club for Zack Handlen’s analysis and weekly breakdown of Modern Things Of Which Ichabod Doth Not Approve.
Also noted
Jane The Virgin (The CW, 9 p.m.): In “Chapter 11,” Jane tries to get her mother and boyfriend to like each other by having Rafael over for a family dinner, which quickly unravels. We also learn that Rafael’s favorite movie is Dirty Dancing (good answer) and that one topic that shouldn’t be brought up is Selena, both the singer and the movie. If Rafael has a problem with Selena, we’re on Xiomara’s side on this one. Meanwhile, Jane also receives two job offers: one as a writing intern for Rogelio’s telenovela and the other at her school as a permanent, full-time teacher. Michael still thinks Rafael is Sin Rostro or at least connected to the elusive villain in some way. But we still think evil Rose is hiding something under those tousled curls.
