Alternatively Mars have realised that Earth will really get involved in a shooting war, Mars has relied on the superiority of their Navy but someone has got stealth technology that's better than theirs and they're assuming it's Earth, and they don't need a Marine Sergeant coming up with an (apparently ludicrous) idea…

I think it's safer to assume Mao was working for Mao. He was working with Errinwright for access to Earth resources. Everyone on Earth assumes Mars and/or the Belt are the enemy but so far no one, not even us, knows where the "blue man on Ganymede without a vaccsuit" comes from, except it's a man with a photo-molecule…

Not in the book anyway.

Did we ever sort of Wesen genetics? Do Wesen always have Wesen children? Of, if its the afterlife and lots of Wesen hunt humans, perhaps they're there as a kind of heavenly reward? Or they were caught up when Der Zerstörer was exiled and have bred over there ever since? There are quite a few ways.

Wasn't he reading from his family's Wesen bible at that point, or quoting from it? In which case it could be the way they wrote about the Wesen, and it would be pretty self-hating I think. Or allegorical about the Devil perhaps. I'd have to rewatch to see what I think.

Part of me now hopes that Monrosalee end up there doing just that. It's a wildly out of left-field twist and it would be great way to go for the couple in some ways. They have been hinting they need to get out of Portland after all.

Les is right. While I appreciate the story-telling nature of going full-circle and sending everyone back to the cabin that's been in the titles for so long, I wish we'd had fewer flash-back scenes and a bit more about Trubel's battles with Black Claw. Just take one of those flash-backs out and give her 45 seconds to…

Agreed, although a lot of people are squeamish about calling it when it's that way round.

She swears like the proverbial sailor in the books. It's part of her character and I miss it. And whatever the reason (perhaps it's a smokescreen for people who think like you - there are plenty of others that think that way after all. Sorry if that seems like a personal attack it's not meant to be but I'm in a rush…

Forgot to say - Season 3, yes please!

I think with all the conscious synths we've met in depth they're playing with quite big human archetypes. For the originally conscious ones that's part of how they were designed, but it carries on with Odi and Hester. We've got a mother figure (Karen), a nurturing wife/carer (Mia), a combination of a defender and a…

While I hoped for that, and even my dykey heart could have coped with more shirtless Sasha Roiz, pulling him back onto Team Grimm through his daughter is in character. He does care about much that isn't him, but both his mum and his daughter are on the (short) list. The Grimmsters offer his best chance of protecting…

Next one I think. I don't always agree with how Danette reads a scene but she covers what's in the episodes well and wouldn't miss something that big.

Interesting take on Niska's actions. I didn't read it as a quick plan, I read it as one of her contingencies coming into play.

A part of me died when she told Renard he had to take it up with Nick (about seeing the tunnels). I can understand he's her abusive, kidnapping ex and she doesn't want to talk to him, and he's blackmailing her on the phone but all those thoughts came later. My thought in the moment was 'ah, fuck no, stand up for…

I think it depends on how you see it. I read it more as she was upset, but she'd come to peace with the fact it was time for her husband to go, or perhaps she was just emotionally exhausted from looking after him. She'll have worse times to come, I'm sure, but the actual moment wasn't that terrible because it was a…

Me too. Grimm can really pack a punch sometimes.

No, you steal Monroe, I'll comfort Rosalee as only another woman can.

In a book, where the author can give you long internal discussions about why it can work as a device, although often it doesn't. There can be reasons the character chooses not yo do it that make sense for the established nature of the character. In a TV show, because we rarely get that, too often it just looks like…

I partially agree with that (I've seen the rest of the series, and didn't want to get into spoilers) but I think the available adult role-model plays a part too.
