Bitsie Tulloch is cheerleading the hell out of the show on her Twitter. It's possible that Bitsie Tulloch is a living saint. After the poo poo the showrunners did to her character last season, if I were her I wouldn't piss down their throats if their lungs were on fire. And they would be. Because I would have set their lungs on fire.

I really wouldn't put it past the writers at this point.

I didn't watch the last episodes of the last season but figured I'd check out the first episode of season5 and god it's even worse than before.

Oh God can anyone get me a .gif of the "claw" at the end? Could not stop laughing! This show has the best cgi In terms of the episode Hank is the worst friend ever for not bolting Nick to the wall. The man is obviously out of his mind and instead of trying to stop him in that situation (which as a cop he can totally do that) he lets him go on his warpath where he almost gets into a car accident and ultimately ends up going after an FBI agent... I appreciated that they resolved to pregnancy arc in one episode in that same way that I would appreciate a gunshot as opposed to flesh eating bacteria: at least it 's over quickly. Babies in TV shows are almost always bad because since a baby does not have a personality they can only be used as a plot device. This show's particular plot device of using the baby as an inviolable connection between Adalind and Nick caused me to internally root for a stillborn or the death of the mother, which is not typically something I would normally root for. Oh well I still like the show. In fact me and my fiancee dressed up like Monroe and Rosalee for Halloween! pasaluki fucked around with this message at 07:00 on Nov 3, 2015 |

So did Adalind have that kid in like, what, 8 weeks after getting pregnant if you stop and think about? Another magic baby I assume. How they could have redeemed the series: Have him go in that room while she's giving her speech, ask to hold the kid, then lock her in the eyes and state "You are never going to see this child again, either. When you get out of the hospital, I am going to hunt you down, and they will never find you. Enjoy your final day alive." Then just walk the gently caress out and get the child as far away from that psychopath as possible. Alas they went with a "We can't fight anymore!" bullshit angle that sets off the "they learned nothing" (the writers) bells. pasaluki posted:In terms of the episode My favorite parts of the episode (there should be a video montage of this) is people explaining to Rosalee and Monroe what happened, and both of them recapping it like it was the dumbest thing in the universe and pretty much asking "What the gently caress?" at the end of it. It summed up the end of last season so perfectly. Also the actress behind Rosalee managed to sound far more upset about Juilet dying than Nick, which I thought was funny. I really hope they don't suddenly have her become a nazi babyeater when the actress gets a better role offer and they decide to kill her off.

I get the feeling that this shadowy organization - or whatever it may be - aren't as bad as they may seem to be. Looks like they're the least of Nick and co. worries.

Speaking of her, does anyone else laugh every time she vogues to threaten someone? I'd think even other species would pretty much want to bust a laughing "Look, a scrawny Ewok! I sure am hosed now!" out. Even the ratlings are more threatening than that.

It says "I eat children alive and crack their bones for the marrow." Adalind's Woge says "I'm a grumpy kittycat that needs to cough up a hairball." Rosalee's Woge is just one big "Awwwwwwww! She's so cuuuuuutte!!"

She does it when she's trying to threaten someone and it's absolutely hilariously non-threatening. She might as well turn into a Smurf.

I loved the expressions on the actors faces while they gave a recap, as though they were intentionally mirroring the audience's shock and confusion at the completely ridiculous direction the plot had taken last season. "Wait, seriously, that actually happened? That makes no sense at all."

They're also treating "being a Hexenbiest" like it's a disease that makes you evil (which, admittedly, was also the case with Juliette's transformation), and that Adalind is barely responsible for her actions while "infected." This ignores that when she lost her powers the first time it only made Adalind more malicious in her quest to regain them and take revenge.

Juliette was turned into a Hexenbeast what, a month or two back? She loving died less than two days ago? Why, sure! Move the rapist that set the events that lead to her death in motion to share your house while having romantic moments! Perfect sense! ... I still think the show would have been redeemed if Nick thought about that for a long time and confronted her about it, and the fact she admitted to having no friends or family, and just end her already. "Better to take care of you now, before you get your powers back. I'll keep the baby, don't need you."

I think she caught an STD from Heroes Sylar called THE HUNNNGER because it's the same loving thing they're doing here. It sucks just as much. (It even includes the exact same gaping plot hole of them being twice as evil without powers, until it's easy for the plot).

Move the rapist that set the events that lead to her death in motion to share your house while having romantic moments! Perfect sense! It's not so much that as Adalind outlasted her storyline. First season instead of depowering her, Nick flat kills her. If we just desperately need the Juliette amnesia/coma story (we don't) Adalind's mother does it. And in my fanficy bullshit, that story lasts maybe three to five episode and Juliette becomes friends with Monroe and Rosalee much earlier. The reason for all this stuff is that some people on Grimm really, really, really, really want Claire Coffee as Adalind to be on this show, preferably romantically involved with Nick. They saw General Hospital back in the day, loved Luck and Laura and thought, "drat, we have to do that here." I may yet forgive if Nick and Adalind have to stop Renard from unleashing a secret Weather Dominater.

Move the rapist that set the events that lead to her death in motion to share your house while having romantic moments! Perfect sense! Honestly, time is just confusing on this show. Was Adalind just weeks away from delivering a baby when she had her Hexenbiest throw-down with Juliet? I'm convinced now that the entire Hexenbiest Juliet storyline only happened so they could tell the audience "see, Hexenbiest power makes you evil, so Adalind was really the victim all along, and it's totally ok for Nick and her to hook up now if she's de-powered." Totally trying to forget that at least half the evil poo poo Adalind has done was while she was de-powered the first time. Also, it's weird how DONE she is with her first baby now. From utter all-consuming obsession for two seasons, to just... nothing. Diana is gone again, and all it gets from Adalind this time is sort of an "Oh well, got a new baby now, so whatever."
