First, G&K were blatantly ripping off the Fred/Illyria arc from "Angel," except in Illyria's case, she really WAS a completely different character, i.e. a demonic goddess occupying Fred's dead body. There was nothing remotely supernatural involved in Juliette's "resurrection," which made her assertion that she was a whole new entity onto herself total baloney. Secondly, there's no way in HELL Meisner could have brainwashed, trained, and conditioned Juliette into a super-soldier automaton in less than a fortnight, I don't care how good he is.Hi Hexenadler,
Thirdly, it's obvious the writers felt that the fans would "move on" from the devastating turn of events in season four and flat-out accept Eve as an entirely different character separate from Juliette, and if they didn't, well...too bad. I can't speak for everybody else, but I saw her as Juliette refusing to take accountability for her actions, which made her presence all the more unbearable. The fact most of the cast nonchalantly went along with her claim she wasn't Juliette only quadrupled my frustration. You'd think Nick would have smacked Eve across the face for that "stop living in the past" comment at the very least, Hadrian's Wall and Hexenbiest powers be damned.
Bad form, G&K. Bad form.
I agree with and enjoyed reading your post.
On many occasions I have posted my regret that the promotional photo of Juliette in her casket was only Nick dreaming. Even FrankenEve said "y only regret is that you didn't have a chance to bury Juliette."
One can only speculate how many episodes and seasons Grimm would have if Juliette was six feet under.
Wow, a green hearse. Perfect color for a dead hexenbiest!
Best!

WTF. Hell NO! Green is my favorite color. A hearse should be black. Ok for Juliette? Maybe orange or red. Or black with a big red dot!
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
