The Final Chapter
(writing that hurts)
So we're down to the wire and it's been an amazing series so
far. The concept on how this show weaves the supernatural world into their
investigations is very intriguing. Supernaturals on this show are called wesen which are mythical creatures. The idea that there's a completely
other existence, most humans are clueless about, is fascinating.
The main detective's name is Nick but he is also the Grimm. He joins forces with
Monroe, a Blutbad, to stop other wesens that take the law into their
own hands. But it seems like rarely are there any bad humans. Go figure.
This season, Nick had to go into hiding from the captain since they are on opposing teams. Not that they haven't always been, but in the past they’ve managed to work together. Now their interests are, once again, clashing. Being that Hank is Nick's partner, he of course defends him but the captain sees that as a betrayal and turns on Hank as well. After Nick gets help in performing a spell to look like Sean, he ruins the captain’s present and future plans. After that he and the Sean were forced into a truce.
Captain Sean Ranard is a Zauberbiest and his narcissism has reached an all new high. I seriously thought his ego could not get any bigger. He has betrayed allies and has
turned on the best detectives he's ever had. He's killed with no remorse and
has done nothing to stop his mind controlling daughter. He only cares about
power and being the next mayor. But even after all that he's done, Sean is one
of my favorite characters. He is so deliciously evil.
So much trickery has occurred over the seasons that the once
lovable couple, Juliette and Nick, are unfortunately no more. They can thank
Adalind's, a Hexenbiest, for that. A few seasons back, she performed witchcraft
to look like Juliette and inadvertently slept with Nick and wound up pregnant.
Ironically, Juliette turned into a Hexenbiest some time afterwards.
Through a spell she pretended to be Adalind, but how exactly she became wesen
has yet to be explained. No matter, it happened and when Juliette turned she
became a cold, ruthless killer therefore ending her and Nick's
relationship. Presently, because of some special wooden stick, no one knows
anything about, her life was spared and she may once again be human. So will
she and Nick get back together? That's a hard one since Juliette did kill
Nick’s mother and he is in love with Adalind, the mother of his son.
I love the relationship between Monroe and Rosalee, a
Fuchsbau. They may be wesen but their relationship is the most normal on that
show. I wonder what their baby would look like. Maybe not. Yikes!
As much as I enjoy this show, I wish Nick had more abilities
or at least they should more of them. I really don’t see how he is much different
than the average man. Sometimes it seems like he has enhanced hearing but what
else? Yes, he can see wesen, but so can any other human if the wesen chooses to
reveal themselves. I need some clarification. Also, I do not care for Nick and
Adalind's relationship. Although, I like Adalind's wicked character, she
started all this mess to begin with. I know Juliette killed Nick’s mom but I'd
still rather see them back together. I say if Nick can forgive Adalind he can
forgive Juliette. Hey maybe the special stick will cure Nick’s love for
Adalind.
Overall: interesting show!
That’s my update in Grimm. I will reach out again later.
Thanks for stopping by.
