Koby Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I don't know what happened, but the existing topic seems to have vanished. Anyhow, Grimm was renewed for a 2nd Season last month.Nick Burkhardt (David Giuntoli) holds the key. He just has no idea how to use it. This is true in both a literal and figurative sense as we see our Grimm detective pondering the importance of his legacy in the Trailer of Doom. This is the one place where everything is clear to Nick … where the lines between his Grimm life and his normal life are easily drawn. Nick knows where he stands in this place, surrounded by the artifacts of a heritage he is only just discovering. Life, even the life of a Grimm, seems very simple when reduced to ancient manuscripts. It’s when he steps outside of the trailer that things get complicated.“Sometimes the bigger picture is complicated by things beyond our control.” – Renard. Discovering your friend is infatuated with a witch may not be that unusual, but when that witch is a Hexenbiest who has tried to kill you, dinner conversation can be somewhat strained. Trying to keep your cool in front of your girlfriend while letting the witch know you are on to her takes finesse, and Nick is clearly not up to the battle. “Lovesick” brings us more of the deconstruction of Nick Burkhardt, as he discovers that the “Grimm” part of his life can not be isolated into some compartment to be examined and dealt with when he chooses, never touching the rest of his world. As this becomes clear to him he is quietly, but progressively, loosing his grip. Juliette (Bitsie Tulloch), Hank (Russell Hornsby), and Sgt. Wu (Reggie Lee) have all been dragged into the ongoing drama of the Wesen world, and Nick is running out of ways to dodge the truth and the inevitable questions that he knows loom large on the horizon. You can see his frustration growing over the last two episodes and it’s obvious his primary coping skills – detachment and avoidance – are not going to be much use to him much longer.The episode also brings an interesting spin on the nature of Hexenbiest Adalind (Claire Coffee), and apparently even in the Wesen world, issues with your mother can ruin your life. In just a few scenes, Adalind’s mother, Catherine (Jessica Tuck), manages to make me feel sorry for a character I previously had only contempt for. Sometimes the worst thing to be is just another pretty face. Things with Juliette are still on the back burner, but knowing how Nick deals with this stuff, it seems logical that he’d be trying to put a “business as usual, everything is OK” face on things while his mind struggled to figure out how to handle things. That’s what we’ve seen from him so far, and now we are also seeing the inevitable cracks in his nice guy facade. It’s going to take the blood of a Grimm to free Hank. Fortunately, Nick is more than ready for a little bloodshed. How do you explain the impossible? How does Nick bring the people he cares about into a world where even knowing him could prove fatal? How does he deal with the growing realization that the choice is not his to make, and that events have dragged them into the Grimm world where their ignorance makes them easy targets? What choices does he have left?We end as we began, in the last sanctuary left for a Grimm trying to keep his worlds apart, or at least stop them from destroying each-other. In a dusty trailer filled with the knowledge of the ages, Nick Burkhardt holds the key to keeping what he loves most, or losing everything.

Koby Posted March 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 Honestly, I'm enjoying this season a lot more than I have the past couple. It's good that Juliet isn't around, and Adalind seems to have taken her place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koby Posted April 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2016 ‘Grimm’ Renewed For Season 6 By NBC NBC’s Friday night drama series Grimm will keep going as the supernatural crime drama has received another early renewal by the network for a sixth season. Grimm was a lower-profile entry when it debuted in fall 2011 alongside another fairy-tale themed drama that is still going strong, ABC’s Once Upon a Time. The NBC genre drama, produced by Sean Hayes and Todd Milliner, became a sleeper hit, the first scripted success for the network’s new regime and the only series from Bob Greenblatt’s first batch of shows that is still around. NBC tried launching other genre dramas with Grimm on Friday, some with higher-profile pedigree, but Grimm outlasted them all — Hannibal, Dracula, Crossbones and Constantine. Grimm also is owned by NBC, which makes it a solid financial performer for NBCUniversal with solid international and SVOD sales. “We absolutely love what our producers and cast have accomplished over the past five seasons,” NBC Entertainment Jennifer Salke said. “They have created a whole new world of creatures and have a truly devoted fan base. We can’t wait to see what comes next.” This season, Grimm originals are averaging a 1.7 rating in adults 18-49 and 6.4 million viewers overall in Live+7. Grimm is one of the most time-shifted series on the broadcast networks, growing by an average of +90% in adult 18-49 rating (from a 0.91 to a 1.73) and more than 2.4 million viewers overall (3.9 million to 6.4 million) from Live+Same Day to Live+7. Grimm also generates an upscale audience, indexing at a 111 among adults 18-49 living homes with $100K+ incomes (with 100 representing an average concentration of those high-income homes). As the nefarious forces of Black Claw take hold of Portland, Nick (David Giuntoli) must take a stand to protect his city and those closest to him, especially his child with Adalind (Claire Coffee). It will take the full force of Nick and his allies to find a way to bring the Wesen uprising to a halt. Grimm also stars Russell Hornsby, Bitsie Tulloch, Silas Weir Mitchell, Reggie Lee, Bree Turner and Sasha Roiz. Grimm is a Universal Television and Hazy Mills production. The series was created by David Greenwalt & Jim Kouf and Stephen Carpenter. Sean Hayes, Todd Milliner and Norberto Barba serve as executive producers along with Greenwalt and Kouf. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
