Grimm


"Dressed in the skin, the Wolf strolled into the pasture with the sheep.  Soon a little Lamb was following him about and was quickly led away to slaughter."

Ah yes this week’s show is Grimm, where the episodes are based on the not so fluffy fairy of the Grimm Brothers.   The show starts off each episode with a direct quote from one of the original tales, foreshadowing the creatures in that one episode.  The show is based on Nick, he is a Grimm, now Grimms are supposed to hunt and kill vessen, the evil characters.  The vessen are real people who can morph into these certain creatures at any time they choose.  Nick however decides to become best friends with his next-door neighbor, Monroe who is a Blubaten, a sort of wolf species.
 
Monroe, On the right is when he is normal and the left is when he turns into a Blubaten.



         Nick isn’t supposed to become friends with these things, totally against the rules, so he has to keep a secret.  It isn’t that hard since the vessen can sense that he is a Grimm and that terrifies them. Nick is a cop who just so happens to have a boss who is one of the more vicious Vessen but being a cop does have many advantages.  He also wisely makes friends with Monroe’s girlfriend, Rosalie, who runs an apothecary for vessen.   Nick does have to kill some of the Vessen because they are terrorizing humans, or committing crimes, but he doesn’t feel its right to bother the ones that are just living normally.  I absolutely love this show, its scary but with Monroe making jokes all the time its also quite funny.

  1. I love coming back to your blog and reading the new posts. I've heard of most of these tv shows but never decided to watch them. I'll probably watch all of them over the summer. I'll check in again next week.
