Grimm

...you skip every scene this annoying turd Juliette is appearing in or being talked about. After I started skipping the above mentioned scenes, the show was quite entertaining and fun to watch. I can't help it, but this character just annoys the f out of me, as many other reviewers already said.

The rest of the show is nothing spectacular and the scheme is always the same but if you don't binge it, it is quite good.

As others already wrote, I don't get it, why most american shows insist on turning themselves into soap operas all the time regardless of the genre. Every show hast this romance and relationship crap in them. It has become really difficult finding something which doesn't consist of a dozen relationships, romances, marriage, divorce, whatever stuff.

I don't know how I missed this when it came out back in 2011 or how I never heard of it until 2022 on Prime, but wow, am I glad I found it now.

I"m on season 6 and am sad because this is the last season and I don't want it to end.

It sort of reminds me of Buffy for older viewers, and I love the chemistry all of the characters have with one another.

I like the monster of the week episodes best, but I felt the same way back when I watched the XFiles and Supernatural...just a lot more fun with monster of the week episodes, lol.

My favorite characters are Rosalee and Monroe. They remind me of Xander and Willow. I'd totally watch a spinoff based on them.

It's a fun series, and as a fan of all shows with a supernatural bent, I wish there were more like this.

In the beginning, I wasn't sure if I will watch it or give up on it, but after a few episodes I was completely addicted. The show follows the usual pattern of crime dramas, but its focus is on cases that involve beings from fairy-tales. None of those aspects is new or original, but till now shows were focused either on one or another, while the way this show combines them is new and interesting, made to attract both fans of crime dramas like "CSI" and fans of fantasy like "Supernatural" or "Once Upon a Time". Warm recommendation to everyone, regardless of what genre you prefer.

8/10

Do you like fables? Fantasy stories and creatures in general? You will have quite the feast here - if you accept certain flaws that is. While the characters are nicely written, this falls mostly under the monster of the week category. There is some building up and characters developing to a certain extent. But it also lets them do things and then lets them get away without or little consequences.

There is also quite the coincidences and stuff that does not make sense. Things get sweaped under the rug and we have the "Buffy" level of knowledge: check the book. Which is all fine and dandy, but also quite a stretch to be fair. I know that some might feel the world depicted here is a stretch itself, which is fair. But even in the world and the rules set, it breaks them from time to time to say the least.

You can't be too mindful of things like that, otherwise you won't enjoy the show at all. It is fun and watching the outtakes make you like the actors even more. Which might make it harder to rate this the way you wanted to rate it ... I was thinking about going an 8 just because of that, but even though the finale was also very good, it was also very predictable and gave us a character (re)turn, that should not have happened. The lines can blur between good and evil ... but sometimes it is too much ... not to mention the return of ... but let's leave the soap opera elements alone and just enjoy this for what it is ... light and fun entertainment

After viewing the pilot of this show, I think it has a lot of potential. Yes it follows the tried and true formula of expose modern individual to some sort of secret war/history/duty/etc, but there is a lot they can do with it from there. It did its job as a pilot: introduce characters, introduce conflict, and give you the general idea how the episodes will go. I think it is about time we had a new show that runs the good old man vs. monster bit, especially one that isn't prone to becoming some touchy-feely WB-esque teen drama. While its too early to judge the show as a whole, it promises good things. I hope it delivers.
