Wouldn't that just be a regular grimm baby?

No, you haven't. Not in any non-crazy way. Whedon has been getting criticized for this his whole career. But this article was written in response to something Rhimes just did! A current event! Do you also get mad when the news reports on car accidents that just happened instead of ones that happened ten years ago?

But all of those shows have settings you EXPECT to have violence and death. How odd would a tv show about a zombie apocalypse be if no one died? It SHOULD have more violence in it than say, a show about a day care center or life at an optometrist's office. If your show about getting people new glasses has a death

Joyce's death was integral to the metaphor underlying the whole series. Losing her forced Buffy to take over her mom role with Dawn. She had to become an adult and grow up, start paying bills. It was not at all random, not done for shock value.

How about this. Do you agree or not agree that working in a Seattle hospital is less dangerous than hunting vampires, escaping violently insane cannibal space pirates or fighting malevolent aliens which humans used to worship as gods?

I think it should be clear by now that the only one Coulson gives a crap about is Skye. Everyone else can fend for themselves and get left with Ward, turned into a killer cyborg, or you know, whatever.

She wasn't being sneaky, it seemed pretty clearly done that way for exposition/plot reasons. She and Ward had to be separated so that she could be captured, and the phone call explained why she had her old face back. It packed everything that needed to be conveyed in as quickly as possible.

Well, he's nothing if not crazily obsessive, and he knew she didn't age, so it's not at all like trying that with a normal person. Anyway, once he saw she wasn't dead, he probably couldn't bring himself to kill her, and being a doctor he had to do something.

Once she left, I stopped watching. It was really frustrating, it had such potential to be a great show if they just kept the Bo/Kenzie friendship relationship as the core of the show, like a supernatural sex positive Rizzoli and Isles except with no lesbian subtext and just actual lesbians. But nooooo they chose to

Now that I think about it, she often comes off as irritated in her romantic scenes with Nick as well.

I would have liked it if she had been initially resistant, and Hank had said whatever, that's cool, but now you know I know, so if you ever want to talk to me as a friend, you can. And then he got over it and wasn't a Nice Guy and she decided maybe dating a human wouldn't be so bad. It is also revealed that true

I wonder if that line was a throwaway line and a wink at the audience or if they will actually explore it, because yes, it does seem like it would shed some insight on to Grimm history. They may not have been right in their treatment of wesen, but it would seem the royals would have a reason to fear them and fear for

I will be super surprised if they manage to come up with a cogent explanation for all this. We still have the mysteries of zombie Nick, Diana's extra heartbeat and whatever is going on with her, everything to do with the keys, etc. I think the writers make stuff up as they go and then don't know what to do with it.

She'll be not good at something for an episode or two but then she masters it completely. Part of the problem with her character is that the writers don't seem to understand what makes heros compelling. Even a god like Thor is kept from being perfect because he has things he struggles with, he has real personality

Eh, some people don't mind. And no, we haven't seen Sean Booty. It seems like male booty is always less common on tv than female butts. Grimm is at least a little more equal, this balances out all the shots of Adalind in her underwear.

Wu's chin starts to quiver. "I'M NOT PREGNANT, I'M JUST FAT!" he yells, before the pregnancy hormones get the better of him and he bursts into tears. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go look at baby names on the internet for no particular reason."

Imagine him trying to explain to his family and trying to pretend like he is just gaining weight because he can't tell anyone he is pregnant. Ok, I might be changing my mind on this one. Hank would be so traumatized, he doesn't seem like the type who wants kids.

Excpet for the MonRosalee ptsd scene, every single detail of this episode was stupid. And I say this as someone who usually really likes Grimm.

Now that she has her powers back, you'd think she could get busy casting spells or something. But no, all Adalind knows how to do anymore is push out babies and have the royal family pay her bills. She seems to have forgotten she has any magical skills, despite all the trouble she went to in order to get them back.

I think I will actually just throw up. The only pregnancy plot I want to see on this show would be MonRosalee having a baby because that would be adorable but of course that is the one the show must deny us. Wu will probably get magically man pregnant from Hank first.
