Re: Grimm -- Season Premiere -- "The Ungrateful Dead" -- 10/25/13

Still in and this is easily one of my favorite shows. The mythology's pretty broad, the characters are great, there's no will they/won't they romance, they didn't drag out the storyline of who knows if the main character's a Grimm or not, and both standalone/Wessen of the week and the overarching storylines are both strong always.

Re: Grimm -- Season Premiere -- "The Ungrateful Dead" -- 10/25/13

I like the way the first 15 minutes of the show recapped what everyone was doing in the past few minutes of last year's season finale.

So glad that Julie is fully onboard and invested now, and Nick has his own Scooby Gang. Again, Monroe had some of the funniest lines (followed closely by the Asian cop), but I have to admit, I was also amused at Adeline's kvetching while she was following all the directions of the old woman's tasks for her.

Although Nick seems to be in an "aware" zombie state, we are getting a glimpse of how his senses and strength will be heightened this season. He didn't kill anyone in the redneck bar, and I supposed with any lawsuit that might be coming, they can just claim that Nick was captured and given PCP or something against his will.

Outside of Sleepy Hollow, this is another show that is starting to bring the crazy!

Also, read this morning that its ratings were up for the season premiere. Good news!

Nobody watch this? They really ramped stuff up this episode with the creep factor. Good stuff.

How come none of the other characters bothered to question how needlessly complicated the captain's plan was? All they had to do was say that Nick was involved in the cleanup of the other infected and became infected himself. It's not like a boatload of didn't already see how wild those people could get and that the main group discovered a cure.

I think because they explained people's wild behavior under Baron Sam-Dee's control as people doing drugs, not as being infected.

Still, now Nick is a murderer. Yikes. The show has taken some really dark turn so far these last 2 episodes (and I like it).

Loving the start to the new season. Glad it's more of a serial drama now. Really adds depth to the show.

I thought the Captain was going to hold the video over Nick for future blackmail. Might still happen but looks unlikely because he will be implicated too. The minute I think the Captain is good he's going to flip to the dark side.

The thing I like about the show the most is that they introduce a story line and don't drag it out forever like they could. Although the Juliet subplot in season 2 did drag a bit IMO.

Re: Grimm -- "PTZD" -- 11/01/13

So stupid

Why does Nick all the sudden have this moral crisis over killing someone when he has killed countless 'wesen' over the past 2 seasons.

All of the sudden a death matters because the guy was some asshole in a bar that he doesnt even remember?

For me this episode was a drawn out waste and a disappointing resolution to the great cliffhanger they had.

This show had better step up their game and get to the episode where a human has sex with a wesen, preferably the cat like one that Rosalee is.

I want to see some freaky 'manimal' hybrid shit.

Because in the whole show Nick has yet to kill a human. Now he kills what appears to be just some ordinary guy who got in his way (asshole or not).

Nick: Monroe, I need the license plate number of the car of that guy you sort of know.
Monroe: Sure Nick, here you go, I keep it in my kitchen.

I thought he went to call back the guy's wife. She had just called Monroe to tell him the guy was missing.

Probably, it still felt awkward though. The ending did too. In fact these whole last 3 episodes have left me disappointed.

Excellent episode. I did find it odd that the sisters didn't help the guys when they were drowning, which was explained eventually. But that stood out as a clue.

FYI, if you haven't started season 3 and are expecting to catch it on Hulu Plus anytime, you'll be disappointed to find out that Grimm episodes are only posted 5 at a time now. Old episodes will be removed. Episode 1 from this season is being removed tomorrow.

This was a pretty good episode (even though they did little to further the overall storyline). I loved the ending. Even the captain was like, "WTF?!?!?".

So was El Cucuy vessen or not?

I think that she was Wesen... just not sure what the official wesen name is.

The ep was good.

I'm liking this season so far.
