Katia Winter says Sleepy Hollow Season 2 has “been a little manic”

katia-winter-katrina-sleepy-hollowSome Sleepy Hollow fans have, to a degree, been disappointed by the direction Season 2 has been going, especially regarding the relationship between Ichabod Crane (Tom Mison) and his wife, Katrina (Katia Winter), with some fans preferring to see something happen between Ichabod and his modern-day partner Abbie (Nichole Beharie) rather than wait for Ichabod to help Katrina get acclimated to the 21st century, which has come complete with courting each other anew via modern dating rituals.

Don’t worry, fans; Katia Winter has heard your concerns and, to some extent, shares them, but thinks it all should work out by season’s end.

“It’s been a little manic this season, to be honest,” Winter told me in an interview last week, which took place the day after filming wrapped on Sleepy Hollow Season 2. “I’ve heard the fans are really divided, and I totally get the Ichabod/Abbie chemistry, and they’re so fun and good together as partners. And I also understand the criticisms they have with Katrina, my character. But it is what it is. I do the best with the material. I can’t really change the storylines, even though at times I’d like to. I think there’s been some frustrations from my end and the fans with my character in the beginning half of this season. But I’m hoping that it’s rectified toward the end.

“It’s been a tricky character to figure out and to write for, because she wasn’t really established in Season 1 as much, and she’s grown into Season 2. So I feel quite confident that by the end of this season it’s going to be all sorted (laughs). You can’t please everyone, that’s for sure, but I have read some of the fans’ reaction, and I actually agree with a lot of what they say. And I think the writers on the show have listened, as well, to what they’ve been saying. So that’s good.”

Winter sounded more pleased with where the second half of Season 2 (which began airing Jan. 19) is headed.

“Especially toward the end of the season, which I’ve been most excited about, [Katrina] finally finds her ground and stands her ground for the first time, because it’s been a little bit uncertain, I would say. There’s a really amazing moment, I think in episode 15 and 17, where she just kind of chooses her own path. So that’s what I’ve enjoyed the most, actually.”

And Katrina getting accustomed to the new century, and getting reacquainted with her husband, will continue to be a storyline.

“There’s going to be nice moments,” Winter said. “They’re going to go on a date, for example, the modern day time. Which was quite fun, They’re bonding over weird things that are going on in the modern day. The way people interact, public affection — people weren’t really kissing in public and stuff like that back in the day. Little funny moments like that, they explore together. Obviously, there’s stuff that always seems to come between them. But there are definitely some really good moments between Katrina and Ichabod this year.”

And will there be a next year? When discussing the vibe on the set about whether cast and crew think there will be a Sleepy Hollow Season 3, she sounded optimistic.

“I think so,” she said. “It hasn’t been officially announced. They’re discussing changes for Season 3 and all that, so I think once they have a plan for Season 3 they’re going to announce it. But we literally just wrapped yesterday, so I think now they’re starting to focus on Season 3.”

Helping her confidence in the new season, perhaps, is how the writers have become open to suggestions from her on her character.

“They have been [open] lately, which is nice,” said Winter. “I don’t really speak up that much, but I have started to, which is good (laughs) and I’ve been pleasantly surprised that they’ve actually listened to my input. It’s been good.”

Sleepy Hollow airs Mondays at 9pm ET/PT on FOX.

  1. Is this for real? The writers are asking Katia what they should do with her character to “help her with her confidence?” What kind of actress is she that she needs the show she’s been hired to work on to help her with her confidence? Wow, just wow.

    • Unfortunately, that’s just it–she is not an actress. Katia IMO, is way out of her league and her lack of talent is glaring in every scene she’s in on SH. This is a job, how many employers ask their employees how they can make you feel more confident in the job they hired you to perform? Her character was supposed to die in season 1–Let the true and tested talent on SH shine and send Katrina on her way.

  2. lol I guess I do take it seriously. But I also enjoy shows and roll with what the creators do. I do ship Abbie and Ichabod for the future but I appreciate the character of Katrina too. Maybe because I read the book Sleepy Hollow when I was younger and liked the Disney cartoon of it and the Tim Burton movie too and Katrina was a major character. So sue me.

      • There are a lot of us who love the Katrina character. She has a softness that Abbie lacks and a nurturing nature that Abbie seems to lack. She needs to be there. The last Ichabbie episode was so lame. I thought I was watching Starsky and Hutch. Only Steve Webber was actually interesting. No matter what YOU think, Katrina is a counter balance to the Abbie show that is sorely needed. The Abbie character is now making decisions for the male lead as well. Really? This character should have a show with just herself and Kanye West. Tom is the lead here and they have him following little Missy around watching her scrunch her face every five minutes. Not worth the watch. Steven Webber….worth every too short minute.

        • Go away…you are just embarrassing yourself. Do you even notice there is a laugh track behind your name.

  3. I should also add that this woe-is-me attitude just makes Katie seem increasingly ungrateful.

    Orlando Jones and Lyndie Greenwood have both been given far less to work with this season (to make room for Katia’s useless story arc) and have still done a far better job of endearing their characters to the fans. She should be thanking the writers for giving her this opportunity in the first place despite the fact that she clearly wasn’t prepared for it. Because there was no reason to give her such a large role in the show in the first place. No one was clamoring to learn more about her. Not when there were more interesting characters with backgrounds to explore, with actors who had more than earned their place on the show last season. And yet she was given preferential treatment this season.

    Katia should be grateful that both her looks and her whiteness elevated her to the level of status she received before tanking the shows ratings. And her fans should be grateful for whoever was screwing her on the writing staff and insisting she be shoved down our throats. Because any other actress would’ve been kicked off the show after the first breathless whisper.

    • And there it is. Threatened by the beautiful white woman! Truth be told, most of us have never heard of any of these people before. I knew John Noble and Jones was on Madd TV years ago, but that’s it. No on here (but Tom and John) have any reason to consider themselves above anyone else. So get off the self entitled high horse and realize that you are not the one watching the show. Although, you could be.

      • Like you are threatened by a beautiful BLACK woman, who can act, whereas the so called beautiful white chick could not find her way out of a paper bag. Just go away, already. If you were face to face with those you are trying to put down I bet you would not have the nerve to say what you think. It must be nice hiding behind a keyboard.

  4. All you haters can go cry in your cereal every morning or move on, there are plenty of other shows that may be more to your liking.

    And Katia Winter has more acting jobs under her belt and upcoming than Nicole does or probably ever will, will her weird facial expressions and bug eyes, so stick that in your pipe.

    • So you’re saying racist Hollywood rewards white untalented actresses? That’s brand new information!

      • No, she saying that you’re a small minded, vicious, self appointed critic with a chip on your shoulder. Here, here.

          • Oh and racism works both ways. You know that if Katrina had been black you wouldn’t have said a word. Everything has to be Abbie centered with you and playing the race card just makes your argument seem more and more bigoted.

          • There is no racism in pointing out the obvious. White mediocrity is rewarded in Hollywood. Point of example….Katia.

    • Oh bug off, Katia could not act her way out of a grocery bag. I suggest you go to wiki and read Nicole’s accomplishment and then come back and try to push Katia as the better actress. Now stick that into YOUR pipe.

    • What’s to hate. Once a mediocre actress always a mediocre actress.
      If you were a true advocate, you would suggest she take acting lessons. Instead of pretending that she IS an actress.

    • Yep! Outlander, for one — for those who want to watch their white fav’s experience a “good ol’ fashioned” romance (she’s married already though, so you Katrina fans try and not clutch your pearls TOO hard) and exactly 0 persons of color. So shoo! Go on and take your weak witch with you!

      Enough said–katia winter can’t even touch this; she can only hope

        • I am sorry you are upset however, the fact remains that Katia as Katrina, has been given the bulk of the episodes in season two and other actors have been sidelined whether you want to face it or not. And, what is the result? The show is teetering on the limb of cancellation–it is a fact. Mark Goffman’s insistence that the fans would love Katrina if he shoved her down out throats has been an EPIC fail.
          Nicole Beharie is an ACTRESS an Artist the whole package she is an incredible singer and dancer and She is the Co-Lead on Sleepy Hollow beside Tom Mison.

    • You’re so right, Angie. This show is becoming what we were promised and that’s really bugging the Ichabbiers. Katia is perfectly capable of handling her part and from what I’ve seen in the trailers for coming episodes, she’s more than ready to do her thing. Go Katia!

      • No i don’t think she is capable of handling anything especially when the person she is acting with has to dumb down his performance to be on her level. Just admit it she is not a good in this role. I mean I got more joy out of seeing Caroline in those quick 6 mins she was on screen then i have for Katia this whole season.

    • Maybe she has more jobs now that her time on this show is ending… and I’m quite sure she has been in more TV shows then Nicole but you see that is the difference how many movies has Katia been in? And maybe her facial expression are weird then at least she got more than a blank stare. So you stick that in your pipe. I see now you the type that only want WOC to play the roles as maids. nanny or some other racist trope. You probably mad that Nicole is the lead and not Katia

  5. This interview is sickening. Katia Winter is one of the most entitled (relative to talent) actresses I’ve had the disgrace to witness. She barely earned her spot in S1 with her tepid screen presence, but she was rewarded for her mediocrity, while more gifted actors had to take a step back to prop her. She keeps making excuses for her own failures in spite of the many opportunities they’ve thrown at her and yet we are supposed to buy Mrs. Blank Stares, in spite of the fact that she has been a major contributors in tanking the show.

    What other supporting actors have been given so many opportunities with the audience? What’s going on behind the scenes that this particularly intolerable actress is given so many privileges?

  6. And how is she going to be give input to a show that she is ruining. Obviously she does not have anything to contribute. If she did she would contribute to a better performance. I heard she had previously added her input and that is why they tried to shove her ahead of Nicole and it failed. I do not feel sorry for her. If everything had gone well in her debut (Pittura…) they would have thrown Nicole to the curb. You better believe it.

    • Honey, no one gets pushed in front of Abbie. This is the Abbie show, of course. If you don’t like the character then concentrate on the one you do. I’ve had to. It’s what an ensemble piece is about. Can’t stand Irving and all his run of the mills family problems, but did I bitch? No. You don’t get that no one can get everything they want, do you? And that is what is sinking the ship. Everyone has an investment and you think yours is better than mine. I love Crane but can’t stand Abbie. Love John Noble, but what the hell is he doing play the son? See? We all have our gripes. Yours don’t add up to a beans either.

        • wow. someone doesn’t love abbie and they are called racist? ridiculous! I personally like Abbie but I can’t stand people crying racism. Sick. I like Katrina too tho. and her character is MARRIED to Ichabod. I don’t like the thought of him cheating with Abbie but hey I have morals. But I’m starting to not trust her character (Katrina). But it’s not the actress’s fault. Yall take this all WAY TOO SERIOUSLY!

          • to be HONEST on facebook I have seen many African American girls hating Katrina more than anyone tho so that made me want to say something but then I of course would be called a racist instead when it was clear what was going on.

          • I believe the person called her racist because she is the same person who showed up on face book calling a certain group of people ‘thugs’. So, if it is her she is a ‘racist’.

          • kbrooke86:
            Below is the crap she posted:

            “I like Katrina too tho. and her character is MARRIED to Ichabod. I don’t like the thought of him cheating with Abbie but hey I have morals. But I’m starting to not trust her character (Katrina). But it’s not the actress’s fault. Yall take this all WAY TOO SERIOUSLY!”

            Now you tell ME who is taking this all too serious. Hon, it seem as if you, yourself is living in a dream world. Hello. They are fictional character and not your family members.

          • It seem that you are the one taking things way too seriously. Get a life and stop living vicariously through TV characters….JEESH.

          • Brooke, sweety. I’m the “thug” person. And I used that word bc I couldn’t think of anything nice. What you are doing her is the reason I did what I did. Whether you like Katia or not is meaningless. I don’t like Irving, used to like Abbie, but she’s got the Crane character on a leash now and HE is apologizing to HER? For what? And of course there are those of who who think people don’t have feelings or don’t care. Racist? I don’t think calling you thugs suggest a racial connotation, but you seem to think so. What is YOUR problem? This last show was horrible and I blame all of you. You know the previous episode was awesome, but you’ll never admit that. Karaoke, Speed Racer and the emasculation of the Crane character (horrible writing) not to mention the every BRAVE and INDEPENDENT Abbie couldn’t last 2 weeks on her own? Now that’s pathetic. But then, this character is too good for any man, so they can’t give her a life. Look in the mirror. You dug the hole.

          • *lol I guess I do take it seriously. But I also enjoy shows and roll with what the creators do. I do ship Abbie and Ichabod for the future but I appreciate the character of Katrina too. Maybe because I read the book Sleepy Hollow when I was younger and liked the Disney cartoon of it and the Tim Burton movie too and Katrina was a major character. So sue me.

      • Sorry, but not only did Sandra call people “thugs”, she asked if they had “riots to start.”

        Implying what exactly?

        Yep, thought so.

        Sandra’s trash.

        • Stinken, dirty trash that should be thrown out. Something miserable must have happened in her life for her to be so hateful. But if karma is a bitch, she will get hers.

        • oh, I can explain that. A riot is an activity that occurs when a disgruntled group gets out of control and bash anyone and anything in their way. Do you see that as a black thing? If so, you have the problem.

    • You are not wrong. Not only have they tried to shove this terrible character and actress down our throats, but this pointing of fingers is completely improper behavior. Nobody has ever blamed her for the writing of her character, but she has failed to contribute to anything likable with her performance. The fact that she’s been given privileged treatment above the POC, including the lead actress makes this interview even more sickening.

      • Girl, you need help. Your hatred for an actress and her character b/c she is white is disturbing. And a lot of people like Katrina, they just don’t lose their shit and run their mouths like you black racist pigs.

        • Your calling Black people names will not endear the Katrina character to ANYONE. If this is her fans being her advocate, I feel sorry for the character and the actress who plays her. Don’t you know what you spew out of your mouth is associated with her?

          • Obviously you haven’t been around. I’ve seen really vile things being said about me from people who’ve never talked to me. I prefer Katrina over Saint Abbie, so I’m a racist? Karina won’t sink this show. Those of you with entitlement issues will, and I guess I’ll be fine with it. I’d rather let it go than have you bash someone who really does have no control over the material. I’ve seen Katia in other material and she’s great. Hate based on a tv character is just warped. Slamming people over it is even worse. Suck it up.

          • “Katrina won’t sink this show.”

            You are late to the game, she has already sunk the show. You and her need to get lost.

        • Angie here has a very valid point. Racism goes both ways and I saw it from day one here. Though, it is blacks hating whites. How many white characters left? Hmmm. Well just two. Makes me wonder how I could be racist. Abbie wasn’t written to be the main character. I believe that’s Crane. And they’re not meant to be anything but partners. So why do you care about Katrina? Very fish.

          • Yea Crane may have been written as the main male character but, Abbie was written as the main female character..
            I have the seen the show from the beginning and I have only seen them as partners I don’t know what you see them as.. because from where i sit I don’t think Abbie has any kind of feeling of love toward him nothing but friendship and you can have that between a male and female.. a white guy and black female this is not the 1950’s where it prohibited

    • Pittura was amazing. One of my favorites, because I can do w/o the fist bumps for an episode or two. I want to know who Katrina is and if that steps on your oh so special toes, tough.

      • After 2 seasons don’t you KNOW who she is? Oh that’s right. The writing for her has been all over the place so that its hard to get a handle on her. One week she’s a plain Quaker. The next, a love declaring, wine swilling harlot. She meets Crane and nothing registers (meanwhile he sucks in his breath at the sight of her). She doesn’t warm to him (and I mean get the hots for him) until she realizes he’s ‘the one’. Prior to that she could give two craps about him.

        And did you hear how she’s a powerful witch? No? Why would a powerful witch go with headless willingly? She says its to keep him from laying waste to everything, but again, POWERFUL WITCH. Her ‘magic’ should have been no match for his, but we get someone too stupid to take a magic necklace off. Someone who runs away from mortals, then faints at the first sign of help. I bet she wished she was a POWERFUL WITCH then, I know I did.

        There are REAL issues with her character. Those issues were even more glaring whenever she stood next to Abbie. Fainting during spells, arguing to save a son who hates her guts. Arguing to save headless who was about to chop her head off. How anyone could be a fan of that is bewildering.

        • And this state of affairs was orchestrated by whom? Writers. Bashing Katia has nothing to do with her character but you do it anyway. Nicole’s character has been established from day one, female cop who lied putting her sister into a mental institution out of fear and then conveniently forgetting about that transgression for 13 years. If redemption weren’t a big part of the show, Jenny would still be estranged from her. You need to let the writers allow Katrina the same courtesy. She has been shuttled around long enough. It’s her time to find peace with herself.

          • First all she didn’t put her sister in mental institution for 13 years.. if you go back and watch The Vessel episode you will hear them say she was in and out of jail or mental institutions for some of those years. And Jenny did not go to the institution because Abbie didn’t tell the truth she was back forth because she was possessed by the demon Anticiff.. and that demon was telling her to kill her sister.. Jenny went back to protect her sister. And the only reason Jenny was able to forgive her sister is because they are sisters and Abbie understood that no matter what happen she still have to earn that trust back from Jenny. And no one is sending Katia hate tweets, emails or any of that.. I mean do you have receipts to show that anyone has.. or is that part of your warped thinking? How has she been shuttled around.. i mean the writers are the ones that says she is one thing but never shown it..

        • What you describe is writers who left the character hanging. I’m frustrated with that. But I don’t throw a tantrum over it or write up a petition or insist that show runners run “my” show. That’s just arrogant to the nth degree. Look that up.

  7. “And Katrina getting accustomed to the new century, and getting reacquainted with her husband, will continue to be a storyline.”

    Hell no, not on my TV screen. Enough is enough. Are those people crazy. Bye, bye Sleepy Hollow.

  8. All of those interviews by Tom, Len and whomever is a trick people. It is same old, same old. Do not be a fool and fall for it. Let it sink. They have not learned a thing.

      • All the screentime between ichabbie is going the way of the dinosaur. Last week’s episode they shared screentime with Katrina for the date, and then all we got was their talking on the phone a few times and wishing each other luck while they take on SEPARATE dangers. Really?!?!? THEIR chemistry is the only thing that has made this strange concept work…the only thing! I really want them to remain brother and sister as it is such a sweet, modern take on the Lethal Weapon buddy cop genre….except Nichole is much, much easier on the eyes than Danny Glover. 🙂 It is nice to see this type of friendship between a pretty black lady and a handsome white man as the history between these demos have been rather complex during and after colonialism. If I didn’t know any better, I would’ve thought they were writing her off after watching last week’s episode. I don’t look forward to this show anymore….my Mondays are a bit too busy anyway as I bring work home so perhaps it is for the best. As a German, I still like American shows best for diversity and interesting plot concepts. I still like Gotham and starting to like Empire, if only I understood hip hop more. Lol! Scandal still is a must see and I like Arrow and Walking Dead.

        • Yes and it was rated really high on Rotten Tomatoes. They never like anything. It was an awesome episode. Crane got to show a different side of himself and Katia was terrific. Brave Abbie couldn’t handle Irving on her own? What the hell kind of a cop is she?

          • Huh? what do you mean Abbie couldn’t handle Irving? It not like he was about to attack her or anything like that they had a conversation. She told him that she couldn’t trust him knowing that he had died and he came back to life.. I mean would you trust someone if they came back to life. And if she wasn’t a good cop then she still wouldn’t have a job to support the Cranes. Oh but i bet you forgot she save the Cranes again in the end when Katrina could not.

  9. Sleepy Hollow used to be an exciting and wonderful show full of diverse and interesting characters which made the show very entertaining and fun to watch. A show most of us looked forward to watching from week to week.

    Where has that show gone? Abbie Mills and Ichabod Crane were a unique and dynamic partnership, And after a day of kicking demon butt, they had those special moments at the end of each show which solidified them as the Witnesses; the end game of SH. Now, Abbie Mills has been sidelined and marginalized as the second witness and who do we have in her place? Katrina Crane. If SH makes it another season. Please do what SH planned to do in season one. Kill off Katrina Crane. Every scene shes in drags down the show.. She is by far the most boring character and only works as a plot device. I am sure Katia Winter is a nice person however, she is not an actress. She is however, the weakest link of SH. And, she seems to glorify and make fun of her bad acting by sticking it in the face of viewers with arrogance I might add. Who’s protecting this woman at the expense of the real talent on SH?
    Nicole Beharie, Tom Mison, Lyndie Greenwood, and Orlando Jones, deserve so much more than what they have been subjected to this season. If SH makes it to season 3, I hope they bring closure to the Abbie/Luke relationship. Bring back John Cho as Andy and return Abbie and Ichabod back to their positions as the TWO Witnesses on equal footing, the end game of SH. Katia Winter can say what she wants however, a true actress can sell whatever they are given. She can’t act period.

    • Excuse me, but this is not all about Abbie. There are fans who love Katrina/Katia and HATE the way you’re treating her. She has been in this show since the beginning and is a pivotal character. Want to do something constructive w/ your life? Try telling the writers to give her a break. But then, I know you’ll never do that because you’d need to admit that you don’t know shit.

      • And it sure as hell is not about a worthless B actor who do not have any talent. Furthermore who is very unprofessional by throwing the writers under the bus whether it was their fault or not. She SHOULD shoulder some the blame. Her being front and center has only disrupted the show…PERIOD.

      • How are we treating Katrina/Katia b it the writers that have treated her bad.. with the material they wrote for her. And most of the season was about her to show us what a pivotal player she is in this show and it has been all for naught because it only show how much of a horribly written character she is. So take that up with the writers not the people who wanted a show that we fell in love with last year.

        • This woman had a season and a half to shine and she FAILED. Most actresses would have cherished such an opportunity. If she knew that she could not deliver she should not have accepted the opportunity. Why put yourself into that position when you know you are not ready. I think that she felt that she was entitled.

          • A season and a half of being sequestered and badly written. Not Katia’s fault. We don’t know what type of actress she is because we haven’t seen her. One episode w/o Ichabbie and people just fall apart. I loved that painting episode and it was good. If Ichabbiers were not so afraid of losing their fantasies, they might be able to enjoy the show. But their constant focus on a character they decided they don’t care about says a lot about them. I like the Ichabbie banter too, but I never thought that had anything to do with Crane’s relationship w/his wife. I look forward to seeing Katia’s character being given her long awaited team stature.

  10. It’s…not really preferring one relationship over the other. It’s how poorly Katrina’s character has been written and then the way the show wanted to force the audience to like her anyway. This at the expense of the show’s actual female lead (Abbie Mills).

    • She cannot act. They need to get rid of her or replace her. What is wrong with those people over at Fox. This show is doomed. I will not be tuning in for now on.

    • Absolutely. I used to ship Ichabbbie before Ichabod proved how unworthy he was. And even then I knew Ichatrina would come to a head and was mostly cool with it because I was so confident that they wouldn’t give Ichatrina all that screen-time to workout their relationship woes without at least giving Abbie a life of her own.
      Wow, was I wrong.

      Katrina drags the show to a screeching halt and without the benefit of Abbie doing… well anything other than existing and be the Crane’s work horse, the show just lost all its fun. Katrina is a fun vampire.

      Really hope the show lets her be a matryr or something cause I don’t even care to see her turn evil now.

      That said I loved last night’s ep. Even came to like Hawley before his big send off. Hope the show continues to build on the positive momentum they set in motion tonight but ngl Spellcaster, another Katrina-centric ep, doesn’t look promising like at all.

      • That’s the writers, not Katia. Did you advocate for better material for her as in abbiedeservesbetter? No. You just like to bitch and moan about nothing. I did notice they tried to give Abbie a life but no one in your camp thought anyone was good enough for a character who left her sister in a mental institute for 13 years over a lie. She’s a cop, not a saint.

        • Why didn’t you advocate for better, Sandra? She’s your favorite character, right? You disliked the writing, right? Why didn’t you and your harpies band together to demand better for Katrina? It’s not on us to defend YOUR fave.

          Oh, right… you didn’t have a problem with the writing until Katia comes out whining at the failure. Maybe if YOU had been proactive when the writers damsel’d Katrina in the Season 1 finale, they would have paid attention. But what did you all do? You camped out over on Facebook and Twitter and applauded the writing, and dismissed any complaints as “they’re just bitter shippers”, all the while DEFENDING the crappy writing for a character you claim to love.

    • I know it’s the writing. But have you ever tried talking to the higher ups? I have. Having that material and trying to overcome it is HARD. Have you done any acting? Thought not.

    • Believe me. There is nothing obstructing Beharie. She’s in EVERY damned scene. That’s so boring. Now someone is trying to get up a petition for karaoke every week? What happened the dignified, perturbed and outraged Crane? I say, return Crane’s backbone and have him give Abbie a “talk” about his life being off limits. I’d pay to see that one!

      • Your bitterness is actually quite funny at this point. Your intense dislike of the main character shows your true colors. You weren’t mad when Katrina was a damsel every other episode when her sole purpose was to be repeatedly saved and violated. No, what infuriates you is that a black woman is the more important character on this show, the ones people actually tune in to watch, instead of your favorite little white girl.

        Nicole Beharie is a fantastic actress. Besides you and Katrina’s two other fans, everyone who watches this show can’t get enough of her and her character. Katia Winter is a chore and a bore. People literally tune out when they see her on screen. And that just doesn’t fit with how you view the world.

        It’s fine though. You spewing your racist bullshit all over this comment section isn’t gonna save your mediocre actresses’s job. You’re more than welcome to leave this show when she does. Clearly it’s not catering to your kind.

    • And how has Abbie been hurt? She’s the same character and she’s in conflict as well. Do you need an endless fist bumping session to know who she is. She’s fine.

      • If memory serves me there has only been one fist bump scene this season and that was Ichabod who started the whole sequence.
