Is Grimm worth watching past season 3? - SinisterMatti - 03-06-2016
I just finished season 4 episode 1, and I have to say I'm extremely disappointed.

I can say this the characters change in a big way. If you have ready other post you may get a feel of some of the changes.
The show does what they call a reboot. There where things that happened that made me almost stop watching. But now I am glad I hung in there. I got good and sounds like it is even going to get better. It is no longer the season one Grimm.

I really enjoyed season four myself. A lot does happen that sets up a reboot in season five, but season four was pretty good. One of my favorite things about season four is the Wu storyline. I don't want to spoli anything, but around episode eight things really change for Wu.

That why I can wait for Wu's next change. Especially if it is because of the chest.

In a word, yes! Every show has rough patches and there is one thing about season five that's weirded me out a little, but I've not been as excited as I am for the upcoming (100th!) episode for any show since I was a kid. They're actually going places with the plot, unlike most shows.

IMO, I'd advise against it. The writers take one particular character down a very dark, needlessly depressing road which undermines not only the relationship between herself and someone else, but the entire show as a whole. If the series is cancelled this year, I personally feel much of the blame should be directed towards this plot development.

I also did not like how they made the season 4 to season 5 transition. I now see why,and I like the character. To me she got the better end of the deal. Without the transformation she would be left with knowing but no longer being connected. Nick had no other choice then the one he made. I have found wait a few episode and bad situations seems to turn around.
I am seeing Season 5 to really get crazy. Up to this point they have solved different problems but we always felt their's a solution. Now it is everything seems permanent. The price of being involved seems to be going up.

Should you keep watching?
Well, despite the obvious and rather toxic level of ButtHurt frequently expressed over Seasons 4 and 5, I'd say it all depends on whatever it is that you might personally find interesting and entertaining.
In my opinion, the show only really evolved from being a generic procedural (albeit with a supernatural twist) and cookie-cutter Monster of the Week time-killer in the latter half of Season 4. If you keep watching, I'm confident that you'll believe as I do and bitterly resent the fact that one particular character was not torn to pieces by wild dogs and then shat into the remote Oregon wilderness.
Had the Powers That Be employed these Heroic canines, they would have avoided a needlessly depressing road that has resulted in the most disappointing development, thus far, in Season 5.

Hello SumYungHo,
You commented:
Quote:[I] bitterly resent the fact that one particular character was not torn to pieces by wild dogs and then shat into the remote Oregon wilderness.Many of us have a character that we would prefer was gone and undesired plot lines (depressing roads) that we have not enjoyed.

So, SumYungHo, who is your "particular character" and your "depressing road?" For me, the "particular character" was Hexenette. I felt Nick was done with her and I even questioned if anyone would attend her funeral; good riddance. The FrankenEve character is an insult to Nick. For me, the "depressing road" is the Ship Nadalind plot. The flashbacks during their scenes remind me just why Ship Nadalind is not sea worthy.
Hey Forum, if you read this, why not add your two cents and tell about your "particular character" and "depressing road?"

SYH, we're always doing our best to express our opinions and views in a way that doesn't provoke negativity or flame wars. "ButtHurt" is directly from the language of trolls, the kind of calculated word that's designed to get a rise out of people. If you're not a troll, please try to prove it in future posts.
