Exclusive: NBC Renews Grimm For Season 2 (http://tvline.com/2012/03/16/grimm-season-2-renewed/)

Season 1 (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv/grimm-(season-1)/msg1781/#msg1781) isn't finished yet and it's been a fun ride, but I wasn't entirely sure that NBC would renew the series. They have. Yay!

Now THAT was a fun hour and a great Season 2 premiere. This one literally picks up right where Woman In Black (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv/grimm-(season-1)/msg8877/#msg8877) ends from Season 1. Really not sure where they are going to go with Nick's mother or even how long Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio will be attached to the show. But it does look like she will be hanging around for the time being, helping Nick deal with the new monsters invading his town. Also, she sets forth a new McGuffin for Nick by mentioning 7 smaller maps that he must find that will make 1 larger map. Wheeeeeeee!! This episode literally ends on a cliffhanger, to be continued.......BAH!

Very entertaining hour. A lot went down and I thought the fight between Nick's mother and the Hexinbeast was pretty good. But it's the last 5 minutes that left me intrigued as to where the series is going. First off, there is something off about Nick's mother and I'm still not entirely convinced she is who she says she is. Her breaking into the car when she was suppose to be leaving town tells me something isn't on the up and up. And then there's the Kiss at the end that completely wipes Juliet of any memory of Nick. Things just got veeeeeeery interesting.

This episode was awesome! There was a lot of interesting things going down in this one. You have Nick's girlfriend Juliet who can remember everyone else, including Monroe, but not Nick himself. You have Nick's partner Hank who thinks he has gone crazy and is losing his mind from the things he has seen. And you have a pack of Coyotl's kidnapping one of their own to bring back into the family. All of it comes to a head when the kidnapped victim played by Maddie Hasson (The Finder) (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv/the-finder-(season-1)/msg4391/#msg4391) lets on to Hank that she too is a bit "different". This then leads to Hank finding out that Nick is a Grimm. I'm glad they finally addressed this as he was starting to recede into the background on the show.

Some infected people are roaming around town due to an outbreak. But for me the episode was all about Monroe and Rosealee taking their relationship to the next level. Unfortunately for both, it's interrupted by said outbreak. I liked this one. Not sure what the deal is with the "Cab Driver" guy yet.

An okay episode. Kind of predictable. I knew how it would end half way through. At least they gave us some fun Monroe moments, especially at the end when confronted by the herd, er....flock.

A very cool episode that was surprisingly very emotional at the end. It's just too bad they had to kill off Angelina (Jaime Ray Newman), Monroe's Ex-Girlfriend. She was awesome in this and pretty much owned the entire episode. She was even funny when she took over the crime scene to "solve" the case. Monroe burying her at the end was sad. Too bad she's not gonna be around anymore, the character could have added a lot to the series.

Sub-par episode that did nothing for me. It was meh. Big twist is that the little girl is the dangerous one. Only thing of interesting was when Juliet, after kissing Nick "sees" his Captain, instead of him.

Very nice twist by having the kid that has not one monster inside him, but two monsters inside him. From the very beginning of the episode I had the kids mother has the one that was offing the other kids from the Academic Team. But it turns out that the mother had altered his DNA before he was born with another monster gene, which when he matured would send him on a killing spree.

Also interesting was where they are taking the 'Captain Sean Renard lusting after Juliet' plot. The fact that he ends up at the doorstep of Monroe, looking for help is going to pay off later....in a good way, I would think.

Up till now, every episode has focused on Monsters and Creatures. But for this Halloween episode, it shifted to a "Ghost" that kidnaps children and then drowns them in the river. They said it was a Ghost, but it's face is that of a Zombie and even then it comes and goes. So, I'm really not sure of exactly what it was. I liked the Monroe scenes with the Trick Or Treat'ers. The ending was predictable and I saw it coming a mile away.

Great episode centered on a Vigilante Grimm "cleaning up" Nick's mess by killing those that Nick refuses to kill. As soon as I realized that it was an inside job in letting the suspect go from Police custody, I immediately knew that it was Ryan. By make him so nerdy and clumsy it became a huge red flag it would in fact be him. Turns out he wasn't a Grimm after all, but a monster with identity issues. As for Juliet, I'm really starting to dislike her, especially with her flirting with the Captain all the time.

I was pretty certain that they were going to execute Jason Gedrick's character, even with the evidence at hand that would exonerate him from his crimes. The story itself was pretty good. Very intense. But the best part of the episode comes at the very end when Monroe sees that Juliet is with the Captain. Great cliffhanger.

Nice to see Adalind back on the show. She was gone for way too long. She brings a certain quality to the show and a much needed tension to everyone involved. As far as the Juliet / Sean (Captain) story, I was pretty sure that Monroe or Juliet would have told Nick who she was in love with at the start of the episode. But they ended up dragging the reveal to the very end. I wanted to see a throw-down for sure. Not gonna happen till next episode.....I hope.

Grimm was off the air for such a long time that I had to read my last episode review just to remember what had happened. The wait was well worth it. We finally get the "showdown" between Nick and his Captain, but it was over before it began. It looks like they have an alliance now to take down Adalind and the Royal Family. Speaking of Adalind, it looks like banging the Captain was her end game. Now that she is pregnant (implied as the cliffhanger), she may have in fact just saved her own life, even without the Key she was suppose to get from Nick. With a baby on the way, it will make it impossible for the Royal Family to kill her with an heir tucked away in her womb.

Game, set, match.

Eh. Kind of a let down. I guess the entire purpose of this episode was to established that there is a Wessin Council that will go to any lengths to keep the status quo and that means sending out assassin's to "take care" of anyone that uses their 'Monster side' for profit. I just found that whole bank robbery weak because the characters were lame. Not sure what is going on with Juliet.

Odd episode and very gross. The 'Fly' monster just looked absolutely ridiculous. It was beyond lame. But gouging out its eye and the grinding it into a paste to smear on Nick's own eyes to save him from permanent blindness was something I didn't think any Network show, especially NBC, would ever let get on the airwaves. Barf. So, now Nick is basically going to have the power of Dare Devil with his super hearing....courtesy of the 'Fly' guy.

Meh. The idea of using video games, monsters and murder has been done countless times before. But this one kind of didn't know where to go with it once it got to the end. Having the monster just dive off a building in an act of suicide just points out that the writers were clueless. There was no motivation to jump, so it makes everything that happened in the episode kind of pointless.

I don't know if it was intentional or not, but I found it very funny in the steps that Nick, Monroe and everyone else went in securing the sweat of a lawyer who had the ability to release a hypnotic pheromone that sway juries at his will. Basically he could all of his clients free and clear of the crimes they had committed.

Meh. The story was blah, although I did find the Volcanalis to look cool. The FX was decent enough for what you normally get on broadcast TV. I just think that they Nick and the gang were able to kill the beast a little too easily given how destructive it was. There should have been a much larger fight at the end. It took all of 5 seconds and then it was over.

Meh. An "alien" episode where a married couple go from human form to a glowing blue alien-like life-form that is being hunted by some "hawk" creature. This one didn't really do much at all. The show has really started to tank. Look at the last few episodes and you see that it's average or below average. I will see this through to the end of this season, but after that, I will have to reevaluate whether I stick with the show.

The writers of the show are kind of going to the same 'well' with the "woman cast a spell and makes guys do crazy ****" angle here. Third time is not necessarily the charm. First they did it with Hank and Adalind and then it was with Juliette and Sean. And now it's Nick and Khole. If the writers are so intent on using the same plot device, they should go for humor next time. Why not have Bud (Danny Bruno) become obsessed with Nick. Oh, wait, he already is. Nevermind.

The Voodoo Guy With Top Hat was interesting with his ability to bring back those Not Of This Earth anymore. But it's his connection to the Eric, the Royal from Vienna that could give us something really good here. This was the cliffhanger, but it was Juliette 's story that was the best, i.e. funniest part of the episode. Watching Monroe, Bud and Rosalee trying to work up the nerve to finally show here their true identity was great. It even had me on the edge of my seat if they were really going to go through with it. They did.

What could have been a great Season Finale is weaken due to poor casting. Every single 'background' actor that was ask to portray one of those mindless 'Zombies' were horrible. It's like the director told them to "go wild and crazy". Only problem is that they each overdid it in a very comical way. It was like watching a bad SNL skit. I did like the fact that they included Juliette on an actual mission. Of course the one time this happens, Nick is caught and is now being shipped off to another country. There's your cliffhanger.
