"I felt like I watched a bunch of stuff, yet nothing really happened."  Yes, exactly!  You took the words right out of my mouth.

The angels won't be able to leave Heaven; at least that sounds like the plan.

That sudden shift was awful, plain and simple.  It smacked of "We've got too much to cover in this episode.  Let's just make her evil and cut all of Cas's internal conflict."

Yeah.  Something.  It seemed kinda reckless just letting her go.

"How glad are we about that final scene?  Renard letting Chloe go is the best possible scenario, however legally implausible."

I liked how when we first saw Chloe, her ex-boyfriend was in her face but she didn't show her true self to Nick.  She stayed collected for a while, able to keep control and not turn.  When she did turn, she regretted it, and I'm not sure that that was just because she realized that Nick was a Grimm.

- The In-Wes-tigators?
- The Grimmsters?
- Is Grimm Gang really so bad?
- We could adapt the title of a Grimm tale to suit our purposes, e.g. The Wolf and the Seven Young Kids.
- The Folks (short for Folklorists)?

I thought "Ebony and Ivory" would have been a very Glee choice, but they didn't do that song either.

I had the prostate of a 20-year-old once, but then I had to give it back to him.  Hiyo!

You see the thing is that Britney S. Pierce is the Twelfth Doctor (from Doctor Who), only something happened to make him / her a ditzy cheerleader at an early-twenty-first-century high school and now time is tearing itself apart trying to solve the problem.

The archives for that calendar they were shooting.  See The Hunt for Red October.

Really?  :-(  Then I switch complaints.

Super Like!  :-)

So the Tin Cup joke then.  :-)

Mickey the Mouse or Mickey the Smith?  ;)

I absolutely love "Don't Forget Me."  It's Smash that's got problems.

BURNING QUESTIONS (not really):  Why did The Doctor want to return to Victorian London?  Did he end up going to the time he wanted but not the place?  Or was he aiming for a slightly different time as well?  Is it telling that the TARDIS did not take him and Clara where we had seen them before?  Just as telling as if

Overall, I enjoyed this episode.  My biggest complaint was that Mrs. Gillyflower was straight-up crazy and somehow crazy + leech = kill them all.  (Insanity as a villain's motivation can be as bad as magic's use on Once upon a Time.  Also, what exactly was the leech getting out of the plan?)  But everything worked out

Strax said that he had shot horses, and seemingly for no good reason.  We didn't see him shoot a horse, but I believe that he could have and would have if not stopped.  Sontarans can still be monsters when it's called for.
