I'm confused about the good guy issue.
I've only seen the Tim Burton and Disney adaptations and recently read a very interesting novella from Katrina's POV (have another novella, which includes the original Irving story still to read). All of which paint Crane as scholarly and "good". Inept in the Disney cartoon, wacky in the movie, but in the novella very much for emancipation and respectful of Katrina's forward views on women. So I can't understand why Crane should be a bad guy. Or why anyone would watch if he was being a douchebag to Abbie, or in league with the Horseman and trying to end the world. Or if you mean too "nice" there's only so many asshole heroes the world needs (House, Sherlock) :)
I'm just pleased that the show doesn't paint all witches as evil!

Yes, I've seen those pics too :D I watch the show anyway, so that'll be a good episode. When D'Hara fest is over I was going to link to the FB albums and IMDB pages of both episodes :D But I don't want to interrupt the flow of the fest.
