Finally, Grimm's Back!

Starting this Friday, March 8th, Grimm is back on NBC. It's about time!  I've missed Monroe, my favorite Blutbad!

If you missed the first half of the season, you're really missing out.  This show is really getting good.

Revolution has arrived.

My Facebook is on fire with commentary about Revolution.  Most of it from my friends who consider themselves experts in science, survivalism, and science fiction/fantasy.  They're the continuity freaks, the ones who tuned out of Lost when the Polar Bear showed up.  They're the ones who assume that all of this world's rules apply in fantasy/science fiction. It's not meant to be taken literally, it's J.J. Abrams for cryin' out loud!  Going into it, I know I can expect certain rules of reality not to apply, and so I settled in.

This show has been on my radar since I saw the first teasers earlier this summer.  The premise is intriguing, and I admit, I took the bait.  Ignoring my nay saying friends who already have a hate on for the show, I kept an open mind. My honest opinion? I quite enjoyed it.  It's something different in a sea of Procedural Crime Drama XYZ, and Unrelatable-Not Funny Sitcoms. Consider Revolution penciled into my Monday Nights.


It deserves a chance to be taken for what it is.  A dystopial fantastical joyride in a world that we couldn't possibly understand after a one hour episode.  NBC has it available for viewing right now. 

All you haters can go watch Football.

Grimm Return

I was beyond excited when I heard NBC was picking up Grimm for a second season.  If you'd asked me last year if I thought it would survive, my opinion was, well, grimm.  I suspected it would suffer the same fate as many NBC shows.  I predicted one season, and they'd push it off to SyFy where it would die a slow horrible death.

It survived the Friday night "Death Slot" and returns to NBC, with a prime spot after America's Got Talent.  Season 2 promises to be just as good with more storytime baddies. 

I don't know about you,  but I'm really looking forward to more of Nick's blutbad sidekick, Monroe. This season holds more exciting developments for all of our favorite characters.  Season 1's finale shocker sets up some really great story lines this season.  I can't wait!

This was by far my favorite show of last season, and it doesn't look to disappoint me this time around.

Catch the preview over at NBC.com.

Storytime is over.  Grimm is on.

Edit: I absolutely despise what they did to the opening credits, what is this, The CW?
