It looks like Nick will finally tell Hank everything!!! I also love the continuity of Nick still have the scratch marks on his forehead. It's nice for a change! :)
I think Nick was kinda of a bad friend to lie to him in the first place and not tell him soon, as if it wouldn't mess him up. Glad he is finally telling him the truth now, if he actually is any way.
Yes Juliette is a weak character. In a weird way, Nick had much more chemistry with Adalind. I was really hoping that the writers would capitalize on that chemistry after she lost her powers and Juliette lost her memory. I'm not looking forward to a whole season of Nick and Juliette rebuilding their lost love.
I agree with you about Juliette. Well, it's not so much the character as the position the character holds on the show.
The whole 'must keep this a secret from the significant other' approach is annoying and I find it especially annoying here for a few reasons. (1) Aunt Marie's edict for Nick to dump Juliette makes no sense. This is a universe where the world needs Grimms. How does the world *get* Grimms? It is inherited, so the Grimm *must* have a family or the line stops. It is only logical (and right) that, once you've found someone you want to marry...you give them a heads up. (2) (and this one is the one that makes me the most insane) It's that cliche that you have some one in a dangerous situation but you don't give them all of the information they need to keep themselves safe. {This cliche comes up most frequently when someone needs to be protected. There's always that scene where the protector says "stay here!" but they don't say why and invariably the person doesn't stay put and winds up in more danger.} Sorry I digressed a little...In Grimm, the trouble follows Nick home. What's the safest course of action? Tell the woman what's going on! It's stupid not to. She may not be able to jump into the middle of a fight but at least she can make smarter decisions in order to protect herself. But I fear they're going to follow the cliche and twist things all around and up and down so that Juliette remains the ditzy girlfriend without a clue. And that just irks me.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.
common nick you had to tell him the truth before he will take it to the crazy ward of mental health
ReplyDeleteSay it, Nick, just say it. (Oh, you know he's going to).
ReplyDeleteI didn't think I would like this show... but its outstanding... my one gripe is that gf... Juliette gets on my last nerve...
ReplyDeleteI like the fact juliette knows Monroe but not Nick and wants nothing to do with him. Poor Hank Nick put him out of his misery. Tell him the truth!
ReplyDeleteIt really looks like he's going to tell him!

ReplyDeleteWhat with the way the into reminds me of Buffy, maybe Nick can start making his own scooby gang... xD
ReplyDeleteI think if Nick and Monroe try the whole show and tell thing with Hank they'll get better results this time.
ReplyDeleteCollectively, I like to call them "Portland: SVU." (special vessen unit)
ReplyDeleteI am now definitely using that monica xD
ReplyDeleteHaha. Just a question: is it Vessen or Wesen? Because Wesen means "creature" in german and I am confused. (Not trying to ruin the SVU ;P)
ReplyDeleteYou're correct, Cathy. It is "Wesen." I just spell it phonetically to fit the acronym. You know, creative license and all that.
ReplyDeleteThanks for clearing it out! I really didn't mean to be picky in case it seemed so :)
ReplyDeleteI love the SVU abreviation though.
Same I have tried so hard to like her. I am falling out of love with the show overall though :/

So with Hank now being read into it, and the new opening sequence, I think "Portland: SVU; Special Wessen Unit" should be officialised now :P
