He's pretty nice to the crew, and swears a lot when he makes mistakes. I almost thought "gently caress" was in the script.

Why  quote:Look for the Nick-Adalind relationship to warm after the spawn arrives, though. "She's finding another side of herself," Kouf says. "So is Nick," Greenwalt adds. In other huge news: The series' central, somewhat foggy key mythology will be revisited. Or, as Greenwalt puts it, "We're actually going to explain the drat thing!"

Oh God. I don't want to hate watch this show. But I am going to hate watch this season. If the new side doesn't involve being dead I don't even know how much I can take. I've never seen such an abrupt quality crash.

I still think the biggest missed opportunity with Juliette over the years, was the fact she was a veterinarian. I assumed she would be of use (even before she knew about the wessen) helping since she knows about animals. I recall an early show where she was looking at "DNA" from an "animal" and noticing it was weird, and seemed to be able to change - and then that plot went nowhere.

I don't know what you guys are talking about with all this fan fiction. While I was a little upset that the final season of Grimm was shorter than normal, they went out on a high note rescuing Monroe.

Seriously, the midseason Monroe plot was pretty strong, and then the second half of the season was... well, yeah. I'm not as down on this show as most people here, and I'll keep watching it because, I mean, what else is on Friday nights, but I'm seriously having a hard time feeling the least bit invested after that half season of WTF.

Juliet was terrible in season 2, but she was pretty great in season 3 and early season 4. I'm actually really surprised that a lot of fans would hate her, unless they just couldn't get over season 2. If you tell me that the rest of the fans love Adalind and can't wait for Nick to be a dad to his rapebaby, I might actually quit the internet.

And no, nobody loves Adalind, although general opinion seemed to be that she was fun as the Anya of the group towards the end of the season.

This thread really is in the tiny, tiny minority. I mean, I poked my head into a fan panel at dragoncon for the show, and the near unanimous opinion in there: -YAY THEY FINALLY KILLED JULIETTE LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE YEARS AGO -I'm happy that they are finally letting Adalind be a good guy like they should! -Nick and Adalind are going to be so good together. -Why do they keep bringing back Trubel? She's terrible. -Monroe and Rosalee are adorable but getting old/boring. After I realized how unusual my opinions were, and hearing multiple people unironically call them 'the scooby gang', I quietly left.

I think it was less that Juliet herself was bad, and more that almost every plotline Juliet got involved in for most of the show's run was bad. Kind of the same as Adalind after season 1, even if the character wasn't awful, you know that whenever we spend a lot of time with them it's not going to be very enjoyable.

I will make the thread for the new season sometime in October, maybe about a week before the premiere. I'll be putting a bit less effort than I did for this thread. But I definitely have a title for the thread in mind which expresses how I feel about the direction the show is going in. I'll probably watch Grimm for a while (if there's nothing else on), but the instant they try to move to a romance between Adalind and her rape victim, I walk.

I mean, I poked my head into a fan panel at dragoncon for the show, and the near unanimous opinion in there: Same thing I noticed when I got curious. The majority of the fan base hates everything neat and loves everything awful. I rarely say this but the only mercy this show could have is if they kicked Adalind and the rapebaby down the tallest flight of stairs they could find. loving stupid. I kind of hope the guy who plays Monroe gets out of his contract so he can go on to do some real comedies or something. This show is hosed. ED: They'd probably kill him off-screen with audio from previous episodes, too B.B. Rodriguez posted:These are people who desperately want/need Buffy 2 and are shoe-horning a different show into that. You know, I didn't watch Buffy or Angel but I can only assume that for at least most of it's run it wasn't known for incoherently offing every season antagonist off-screen (and even the heroes) out of absolutely the gently caress out of nowhere? The first time a "car bomb" killed the big built up Royal I thought it was all a trick and that the character would pop up later going "You feel for my ruse, since you neither saw the bomb or the body!" But after three or so more royals killed with equal lackluster effect, I'm starting to realize that working on the show must be hell.

I like Claire Coffee a lot, and Adalind had potential to be a really good and creepy antagonist or even frenemy, but the plots they ended up going with are so loving terrible. You can tell that some of the writers are even pissed at it because those are the ones with the shittiest dialogue.
