By this point in the series it would come completely out of left field, but I still hold out a secret hope that we'll Anton's father (from way back in the pilot) show up.

AntennaTV, 10/11pm, weeknights. Two episodes per night.

Don't be such a stick in the mud!

They clearly have a relaxed attitude towards household repairs.
When Nick tells Juliette that his mother is alive in season 3, he shows her an obvious hole in a painting on the wall that was made by a crossbow bolt on the night she showed up, back at the beginning of season 2. It's been a year and they haven't bothered…

With that kind of bounty, I have to assume that the Council isn't aware of Nick's body count re: Verrat/Reapers/etc. As dangerous as he's proven, just describing him as "Grimm" in the contract doesn't seem like enough.

They both showed up in the episode with the seemingly-possessed-but-actually-infected-with-a-cold-sensitive-parasite-child. If I recall it ended with them cautious about Nick, but not actually hostile.

Joan's wardrobe is generally amazing, but that coat was a particular gem.

NBC already tried that once in the 70s. There was an episode of Emergency! that was a backdoor pilot for a series about the Los Angeles Dept. of Animal Control. It starred Marc Harmon.

It's a little like that 70s show Emergency! if you took out all the hospital scenes and replaced them with soapy drama amongst the fire & rescue staff.

I have to admit, the idea of having Adalind return, demanding and full of wroth, smug because she once more has royal backing, only to run face-first into a hostile woged-out Juliette (with head-explodey powers) has a certain appeal.

I'm still trying to process the fact that Chas' immortality stems partly from
having been at an ersatz version of that Great White show in Rhode Island.

That was definitely the 'album cover' shot that pretty much every genre show is obligated provide once a season.

Using Nick's blood to 'cure' Juliette of her new found Hexenbiest status would be logical and adhere to established Grimm lore. Unfortunately it would also be a relatively painless and straightforward solution and, given the way this show is written, that means it has little to no chance of happening.

To an extent, I agree with you that events seem like they might be setting us up for a reset back to the beginning of the second season, which does feel like the overall plot spinning its wheels.

Well, at least now we all know what the cold open of SNL will be this week.

The absolute confidence he delivered "Perhaps they're up your butt?" with was terrific, balanced by his mounting frustration at never being able to really land a cool Evil King line.

Any list without Rubbermaid seems somehow incomplete…

That's a completely different market, an hour's drive away. Try Iowa City's listings:

$250 is completely crazy. I paid that fifteen years ago, for an apartment I shared with two roommates that was about a mile from campus. It was considered a pretty good deal.

Depends on how close to campus you want to get. Rents downtown are by no means New York crazy, but they're not cheap. A few blocks away, and you could easily pay that for a 1-2 bedroom apt.
