It's like he's Roddy Piper, minus the bubble gum in his ability to see the humans for what they are.....monsters. This looks good. I assumed this was going to be on cable: HBO, Showtime, etc...But the NBC logo at the end tells me this is for regular TV.

Confirm please.

Pilot



Pretty decent opening in spite of it being somewhat predictable. I like the actors and the characters so far. The big twist came at the end...

Spoiler (hover to show)

 But I'm very leery of committing to this show since it's on a Friday. This show, no matter how good it is will not be a ratings winner. If this is only a 13 episode pickup, it has a chance to make it to the end. Anything longer and it's going to be an uphill battle. I'll stick with it, but I'm cautious.

I really did not pay close attention to details on what Grimm was about. After watching the pilot episode last night, I'm not sure I'll be coming back to it. I seriously have zero interest in cop (medical or court) shows. I thought the set up was cool and the overall look and feel was very good, but when it gets into case investigations, I just don't care.

Bears Will Be Bears



Well, this episode fell somewhat flat. The missing boy angle was kind of weak as it was used to shine the spotlight on the "hunt". I didn't care for this at all as there was no sense of urgency to rescue him and his girlfriend. But the episode wasn't a complete waste in that it pushed the envelope somewhat (on NBC no less) when Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell) literally tore the arm off the guy trying to kill Aunt Marie. How shocking was this little "arm twisting?" Even he said that he may have taken it a bit too far. Hahaha.

Side-note, I'm pretty confident that Nick's girlfriend is a watcher of some sort to look over and protect him and that is how she got on the inside, by posing as his girlfriend. Right now, she is playing it a little to "meek". But there will come a time when Nick's life hangs in the balance is about to be killed and she will have to step in and save him revealing her true identity. That's my guess.

Bees. X-Files. Just not as good. The episode hints at the fact that there is a giant Bee out there killing people. So, I'm expecting to see a giant Bee with a massive Stinger. Turns out to be a Bee/Human going around with a syringe. Fail. The episode was meh, but it was interesting that Nick has to protect Adalind, the one that tried to kill his Aunt in the Hospital. If they don't try to come up with better stories, this is gonna crash and burn long before it gets cancelled, and I may not stick around that long.

Pretty good episode, but the ending I saw coming a mile away. As soon as I saw that the Paramedic was female, I knew that she would fall under his spell, which she did. Fade to black. So, I'm pretty sure the Bed and Breakfast guy will show up in a future episode. Monroe's reaction to standing near him, listening to him trying to "whooo" the chick at the bar was definitely funny.
