How powerful were they actually since people here are judging Grimms by what we saw in the show? The council seemed like more of a show-not-tell thing on just how scary they actually were.
For instance, how many people were connected to the council? They were wiped out pretty easily. All it took was one meeting in a room to kill all of them. It wasn't like Hydra infiltrating Shield, which took them decades to do, and even then Shield was never gone. They just stayed under the radar until they were ready to strike back and regain the public's trust. The WC, like HW and BC but even more so, never lived up to the hype. I have an easier time believing Grimms were more of a deterrent for local wesen than the WC. It's not like the WC could be everywhere at once judging by their small circle.
I have to admit, that whole BC wiping out the Council was so lame. They were well aware of BC rising and took no precautions by letting someone in such a high level meeting with automatic weapons. Even if they were all wiped out, there were no seconds deputies, assistants or what ever they called their backups, to take their places?
I just have one questions to all these so-called critics, not you in particular, HR. I am directing it to the the others that point at the writers and the overall creative team. If they were so bad at their job, so bad at leaving holes in so many arcs. So may other factors left hanging. Why did you watch the show?
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
