I love both shows, but it's hardly NBC's fault that U.S. viewers flock to Criminal Minds (and, though less so this season, The Following) but refuse to give Hannibal a chance.

…And then Adalind would have been on the run for the rest of her life. Plus the Royals know who she is, but they have no intel on Kelly.

Loved Kelly and her departure with Diana made sense, but I was SO hoping that she would stick around to finally train her son in her Ninja-Grimm ways (how *did* she get in anywhere she wanted?)

Agreed. I never hated the "coma spell" episodes as much as some (and there were some really good eps that season). But Juliette has undeniably been 100% better as a character since she found out the truth.

As an unexpected Adalind/Meisner shipper, I'm still bitter that she gave him that sad little cheek peck when they parted. Agree that she was only with Sean for protection, though.

@edked, I disagree…I don't watch previews either because I don't want to be spoiled, and some (most) networks give out WAY too much info in them.

@DtotheP, I've wondered this too. Renard is a Zauberbiest, and that name is derived from German words for "magic" or "wizard." We've seen that he has Grimm-like strength, but is he hiding his magical powers as well? Why did he have to go to Adalind's mom for the potion that cured Juliette, instead of making it…

But really, who *wouldn't* be fearful when her days-old baby demonstrates not only greater powers than mom but also a semi-mature consciousness? I mean, random TK is one thing, but that baby made holograms of itself in different places!

On Twitter most people were sympathizing with Adalind for having her baby taken away. Not only did she do everything that @OKJimon lists, but she SOLD HER BABY TO GET HER POWERS BACK. Why should we pity her when her original intent was fulfilled?

Let's not forget Leslie, who constantly splurges on expensive gifts and pricey parties and excursions for her friends and co-workers. All on the salary of a Pawnee P&R deputy director. That Iron Throne she commissioned for Ben, for instance, would cost $30,000 at the HBO Store. Granted, Pawnee craftspeople work…

Billy Eichner on Billy on the Street is hilarious. Billy Eichner as Craig makes me want to fill my ears with Andy's gummi bears so I don't have to hear him screaming every line.

@kamikazepig, I first thought you were talking about Donna's fronting April the money for the sommelier competition ($200, I think). But yeah, I have to admit that my similar reaction to Ben's burning the check took me out of the show for a minute. Then I was expecting Ron, who told him NOT to burn it, to have more…

I loved seeing Crosby on About a Boy! I hadn't heard that he was doing a cameo, so it was a pleasant surprise. Actually, I've really been enjoying About a Boy in general — it's somehow both charming and warm and laugh-out-loud funny. And I can see Jasmine and Minnie Driver's Fiona becoming friends…

YES to everything you wrote! Great episode (even if I was drowning in my own tears through much of it). Ray Romano absolutely deserves an Emmy nomination for the evolution he has taken Hank through this season. As Sarah said, you can see the wheels in his head turning as he tries to apply what he's learned in…

@PensiveFeast, totally agree. Can't believe I used to *like* awkward, monosyllabic Drew given what an entitled, slut-shaming ass he's been this season. And I lost even the scintilla of respect I had for Natalie when she essentially apologized to Drew for fucking someone else. If there's a season 6, Drew needs to…

Re: Adam's surprise at Julia's legal bad-assery, I was actually annoyed that neither he nor Kristina seemed at all appreciative when the contract went through. If MY sister (who actually is a lawyer) had almost singlehandedly made something like that happen I would have been praising her loudly to anyone who would…

I have to admit, when Sarah angrily told Drew she was paying for his school and dorm, I thought "with what money? The abundant cash you earn as a part-time super or your first photography job for which you probably haven't yet been paid?" It's not as if her diner cook ex-husband is supporting them…

I see your point, but I don't think Julia was "pissed" last ep when she asked Joel if he was dating Peet. I think she genuinely wanted some clarification on the state of their marriage because Joel wasn't telling her ANYTHING. Then when he finally opened up about his longstanding resentment it seemed pretty clear…

Totally agree on this. Honestly, I really like Hank (and think Romano is doing great work here) but I hope this storyline ends with them just as friends. If there's a season 6 I just want to see Sarah focused on career, travel, her kids, writing a Braverman tell-all, becoming a Somali pirate, *anything* other than…
