The part I liked best about tonight's episode was about how they played Kelly as a Grimm as opposed to Nick. Nick treats each case individually. To Kelly, the jaded veteran, it's just one Wesen after another. She literally did not even recall that she had killed Adalind's mother. That was an awesome scene.

Question about the Verrat - aren't they all Wesen? It seemed odd to me that Meisner was able to kick so many of their asses by himself. He's "just" human, right? Even a bad ass human like Meisner shouldn't be able to kick that much Wesen ass, should he?

Nick mentioned in the pilot that he never knew about Aunt Marie's trailer but in tonight's flashback, the trailer is right there when Marie picked him up. Do you all think that's supposed to be a plot point (like Nick's memory is messed up a bit) or just a very minor continuity mistake? I certainly don't mind if it is

I actually am a bit worried for the guy. I think this movie drove him to lose waaay too much weight.

Yeah, I agree, it really seemed like it would make for a neat recurring plot. Especially, as I mentioned, because I think the actresses did a great job as Sue's teammates so I'd like to see them get a chance to develop their characters a bit (and yes, seeing Sue in that different light was a lot of fun, as well).

Yeah, sorry, good point, Brick, as well. So I think he definitely treats girls differently, which is why it was such a clever situation to place him in. All these irritating girls and he had no ready way to deal with them.

Especially how she didn't even slightly get why it might be sort of depressing that she had all of this remaining gear from her failed tryouts. So Sue and so well done by the show.

I think Mike has shown that when it comes to girls, he is willing to put up with a lot more than he ever would with a group of boys simply because he has his sort of outdated views about girls. He has always seemed extremely sensitive to how something he might say might be taken as offensive to Sue while he obviously

Yeah, that's pretty much exactly it.

I still remember when they tried to make her a new cast member on Facts of Life and it didn't work at ALL. She was good, though, but it just did not fit.

It's funny, I was actually impressed by how much you DID get to. You can often tell when Random Roles is in a situation where the actor is in a bit of a hurry and I definitely got that impression here, so I was pleased that you managed to cover as much ground as you did.

It reminded me a LOT of John Mulaney's Law and Order bit.

The most depressing "word-for-word" remake of a UK show that I can think off hand is the US version of Coupling. So brutal.

Yeah, I'll admit that that part got me, as well. That it was one of the greatest episodes of the series but it can't get an A compared to the series as a whole? That really doesn't follow. So yeah, I am definitely with the "agreers" there. Give the Pilot whatever rating you want, but "Diversity Day" really has got to

I like that Revolution used the tried-and-true method of "Obscuring the face of a new major character in the season finale so that we can use the offseason to cast a big name in the role" for the President. I vote for Treat Williams!

Actually, I guess since we didn't see the missiles actually land, there's always a way to stop them at the last second somehow.

So Kim Raver's character is now dead?

Also, am I the only one who is shocked that they haven't revealed that Miles is Charlie's dad yet? So I guess you win points for avoiding at least ONE cliche, Revolution (so far, of course)!

So now the "Revolution" in season 2 is, what, exactly? It's not Miles and crew working against the President of the United States, is it? That'd be pretty weird. The President is surely the unrecognizable photo on the wall when Randall takes Dubya's photo down, right? I take it that means he is a Republican?

This show kills off waaaaaaay too many characters. All the way back to the British lady, characters were dying for no good reason. But recently, it has gotten so much worse. "Oh, here's an interesting character. What would be a good idea? Oh, I know, kill him/her."
