GRIMM season finale review - David Giuntoli & Silas Weir Mitchell

The first season of Grimm has come to a close with its first season finale and I must say, that the show has succeeded through the weeks of the first season, managed to have snagged a spot in my schedule.  At first it wasn’t a real eye-catcher but it was of the genre type television I’ve been know to enjoy, so I thought, what the heck, let’s watch.

As always, there are details in this piece that could be considered spoilers

David Giuntoli in GRIMMAt first I was wondering why all the monsters fear this Grimm, the man known as Nick Burkhardt, played by David Giuntoli (Aside from a 5-ep arc in Priveleged, this appears to be his first regular role).  But I think the addition of Eddie Monroe (played by Silas Weir Mitchell (Prison Break, My Name is Earl)) has rounded out the story telling wonderfully.

From a cop whose destiny is slowly becoming known to him, to his sidekick who is helping him understand this destiny, a monster himself with many varied hobbies that help him stay focused and resist those urges.  And don’t let that mild-mannered demeanor fool you.  When he turns and fights, he’s a fully capable ally of Nicks.  (As attested to the thug who had his arm ripped off early on in the season.)

Oh those pesky Winchester Boys have made it through another season finale of Supernatural! Sort of.

Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki in Supernatural, a review of the season finale

(Be advised that more than likely, you WILL encounter spoilers from the season finale.)

So there we have it, another season of Supernatural is in the books.  The boys spent the season dealing with the newest monster, the Leviathans.  They seemed pretty unstoppable…  can’t cut their heads off, can’t stake their hearts.  They have lots of teeth and they can shape shift, to a degree.  So yes, they seemed pretty tough.  But simple cleaning fluids were their enemy and an enchanted stake coated in the blood of an original vampire could undo their entire show.

Which led us to the cliff-hanger we’ve been left with.  Zing!

Jared Padalecki in Supernatural

Though some felt this season was pulled out of a hat and flung at the viewer, I’d have to say that even if it was, it was the continuation of the Winchester’s journey.  No, we didn’t see any new character revelations.  We only watched them deal with developing situations.  And having a Leviathan named DICK gave writers lots of opportunities with humorous word-play.  Indeed!
