I'm the first to admit that Claire is phenomenally shortsighted, and I don't particularly take to her argumentative tactics at the end of the episode (and I definitely don't think she—or anyone else—has thought through the implications of time travel), but she's not wrong about Randall, and Jamie is equally

I was under the very distinct impression that the absurdity of choosing two countries renowned as being chill and peace-loving to be caught in the crossfire of a radical nationalist conspiracy was precisely the joke. The writers sitting around in the writers' room brainstorming which two neighboring countries would

I'm still suffering from slow-acting Jacob Pitts withdrawal now that I don't have Justified to get my fix. I love this guy. He can deliver dry humor (even in super-villain spandex) better than anyone!

Except that 90-95% of Fox News programming is editorial and opinion. What it does is couch editorial and opinion inside "reporting" and "news" in a way that is deeply irresponsible and misleading. It is not about informing, it's about conversion. And it's perfectly happy to use misinformation and factually

I realize that brothels were for a long time popular social establishments—with drink, company, games and not-always-sex entertainment (something between a cabaret and a strip club)—but I have to admit that Jamie's time spent in a brothel without partaking of any of the prostitutes has to be conspicuous.

No, it's a pleasure.

Her terror might be interesting for him.

I really liked Claire's response to finding out hers weren't the only boobs he'd complimented: "Well, THAT doesn't make me feel very special."

I'm honestly surprised more hospitals don't use dogs for this very purpose. I mean, I can see it being perceived as unconventional, and surely you'd want to leave it up to the patient whether or not dogs are used, but they're remarkable and highly accurate. Certainly, they could provide an impetus for further

Sorry if I was unclear. Nick's decision not to tell Adalind about the magic stick they found in Germany is entirely reasonable. (His decision to keep it—however seemingly well hidden in the tunnels under his industrial loft conversion—at his place of residence with minimal security, less so.) Its powers and origin

This is more or less my sense of it. Grimm has always had a somewhat unusual premiere schedule, regularly following one, two or three months after most other shows. I'm really not worried for its renewal prospects. It's too dependable. (And, from what I understand, cheap.)

My problem with this is less about whether the show will be cancelled or not, though I hope it isn't, but I find that shows that know their fate (be it long or short) do better with pacing their plot and providing satisfying conclusions. Unless there is contract weirdness, I don't think NBC will axe a show that's a

"Nick being irrational toward Adalind"? I'm not sure I understand. In what way is he being irrational toward her?

I'm not saying that possibility isn't heavily teased in this episode, and Hank's luck with women is genuinely terrible, but I'd be more intrigued if she's probing him looking for potential allies against Black Claw. I mean, not all Wesen are on board with Black Claw's dominate-the-humans philosophy, and it would make

There's a difference between refusing a regular nanny—a person who becomes the primary caregiver (at least in terms of time) for a young child—and agreeing to utilize the nannies as available, trained, experienced babysitters in a business emergency. I don't think Jane would want them to be the first option, but I

For me at least, I don't think it's about sympathy for Jane. This is about Rafael. He can't whine about being left out of his kid's life, he can't begrudge everyone else the wonderful moments they're making with Mateo, he can't keep begging for more time to spend with his son, if he keeps prioritizing everything

Never underestimate the reanimation powers of EVIL!

Nadine's twin brother!

I want a spin-off with hunky hobo Destruction's wandering around with talking dog Barnabas.

I half expected her to confess that she just wanted to see if she could make him vulnerable. I doubt he would take it well.
