Watching the last episode, I was musing once again about how Hollywood is obsessed with cop shows and insists on turning every novel idea into one. Grimm, for example, is a cool story that has nothing to do with cops. While they found a way to make it work, with Nick able to play the good guy/enforcer in both worlds as a police detective, this all too familiar storyline was clearly was an afterthought. Anyway the Grimm as a lone, shadowy figure (think of Nick's aunt or mother) fighting monsters in the dark and unbeknownst to anyone is a much more compelling idea, in my opinion. Buffy wasn't no cop. :-0 Another example of this obsession of Hollywood's is the new SyFy channel show Defiance. They went to all the trouble to create this rich backdrop for epic sci-fi storytelling (campy as it may be), and in the first episode what do they do? Turn it into a cop show. These are the gripes that keep old guys like me up at night. That and gas. :-0 Feel free to share your thoughts, especially if they come with a fruit basket.
