Grimm: 6x13 “The End”

Eve: “Everything has a beginning and an end.”

Here it is, my last ever review of Grimm…..

Grimm: 6x12 “Zerstörer Shrugged”

Wu: “We're all doomed.”

Well, we are almost at the end of the road…

Grimm: 6x11 “Where the Wild Things Were”

Wu: “I suppose this is how Alice felt falling down the rabbit hole.”

What the hell kind of hell was that?

Grimm: 6x10 “Blood Magic”

Monroe: “But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you, and loved the sorrows of your changing face.” 
 
This was a wonderful installment. We still had a case of the week, but this time I didn’t mind, since it was a very beautiful and tragic story.

Grimm: 6x09 “Tree People”

Monroe: “So this mossy, muddy, leafy, rooty-arm description sounds like something out of an apocalyptic environmental nightmare.”


Wesen are Egyptian Gods. Wesen are aliens. Wesen are trees….

Grimm: 6x08 “The Son Also Rises”

Wu: “Might be the trouble with playing God.”


Well, this was confusing and boring with some scientifically gibberish dialogue.

Grimm: 6x07 “Blind Love”

Wu: “Love looks not with the eyes, but with the heart, and therefore is lost to Cupid's mighty dart.”

This was Grimm's response to a Valentine’s Day. I think.

Grimm: 6x06 “Breakfast in Bed”

Monroe: “Well, like the man said, life is a nightmare that prevents one from sleeping”.

While Nick and Hank were trying to solve the mystery of a locked room in a local hotel, Rosalee, Monroe and Eve solved the stick/cloth puzzle.  Simply put - another day in wesen infested Portland.

Grimm: 6x05 “The Seven Year Itch”

Meisner: “I've heard the only way to battle your demons is to take a trip to their hell.”

I must say, this was more fun, than anything else.

Grimm: 6x04 “El Cuegle”

Monroe: “We live in a world full of, you know, people with shoes.”

Last week I asked – “What’s next?” Apparently (and logically) the next one must be a filler episode and it was. But it was a very good one.

Grimm: 6x03 “Oh Captain, My Captain”

“If I shoot you, is that considered suicide?”

This one was really good… if only….

Grimm: 6x02 “Trust me knot”

Monroe: “It's like some kind of weird symbol-filled equation-esque, kind of hieroglyphic-y, astrological cornucopia of something I've run out of words for.”

That is exactly how I feel about this episode. Nothing really happened. Well, lots happened, but at the end we were back to where we started. Still the journey, albeit convoluted, was rather fun.

Grimm: 6x01 “Fugitive”

Rosalee: “Oh, my God, this has to lead somewhere.”

I sure as hell hope, because this was catastrophic.

Grimm: 5x21/22 “The Beginning of the End”

Eve: “We're in the wrong place.”

In keeping with a tradition Grimm ended its fifth year with a two hour finale, and in keeping with the same tradition I was going to review them separately. But since, for the first time, it actually was a two hour finale non-stop, I will also break the tradition and review the finale as one big episode instead of two. Is everyone on the same page? Let’s talk then.

Grimm: 5x20 “Bad Night”

Nick: “I don't think there are gonna be any winners in this one.”

Well, we are headed towards final two episodes, and everything is set up for a big take down. Knowing Grimm, someone will die. Or loose their head. Or both.

Grimm: 5x19 “The Taming of the Wu”

“I have to protect you”

A lot of things happened in this one; I loved some parts more, some less. Mostly, a successful hour, but a Wu centric episode was not what I expected.

Grimm: 5x18 “Good to the Bone”

Hank: “We're associating with some very unsavory characters.”

Wow, what a convoluted, disjointed and inconsistent episode with a very yak case of the week.  I’m not entirely sure I liked any of it.

Grimm: 5x17 “Inugami”

Rosalee: “She's got to be the one to tell you, otherwise there won't be any trust at all.”

That seems to be a common theme lately. Trust. Or the lack of it. Or rather the lack of communication. Everybody is talking, but to the wrong people. The only one who is sharing is Eve, who is also spying on everybody, which, I guess, makes it easier to know who to spill the next piece of information.

Grimm: 5x16 “The Believer”

Rachel: “Well, a few surprises can be fun”

You don’t say!

Grimm: 5x15 “Skin Deep”

Hank: “I didn't know beauty qualified as talent.”

Neither did I. But the lesson to take from this one is - never take anything from strangers and never go to their home or place of work alone at night.
