We already knew a Grimm could produce a non-Grimm offspring. The first time we met Mamma Grimm she said her brother never developed the abiity, while talking about learning from her father.

I love when the people bring in letters from famous people and then are amazed it's not actually signed by the famous person. Like they have never heard of form letters or autopens. Who in this day and age has not heard of form letters? Do these people really believe that this famous person has nothing better to do than write personal letters to every single person who writes to them?

Aaaaand yet another person gets taken to the trailer. Why not put a big sign over it "Grimm Trailer here" I was cool with Theresa helping out Josh. She knows more than Nick did at this point in his Grimm career. I did not like when asked her name she responded with the cliche. She a nice girl who wants to help people. That's not trouble, so stop calling her that. Again Monroe and Rosalee have their own separate story. Renard is on his phone. Adalind is plotting something. Rinse, wash, repeat.

Seriously? I mean my dad is 74 and is hardly decrepit, but that dude did not look old enough to remember the Blitz.

I did have one nitpick that glared like the light of a thousands suns to me. The guy who remembered living through the Blitz. Umm that was more than 70 years ago (VE Day is today and that 69 years ago). To remember it clearly, the guy had to be in about his 80s and his did NOT look that old.

Oh look, Brass has a long talk with her daughter and has to think about things. THIS is how they send off Brass, he decides he needs to spend more time with family? Why? Ellie is going to prison for a long time for killing her mother (among others I believe). Brass quitting his job would do nothing to change that. Just ugh. Ellie was always a whiny brat who thought she wasn't loved enough and punished those around her for it. Meanwhile her dad was a cop who caught the bad guys and made a difference in people's lives who appreciated what he did. He deserves to go out being a good cop, not giving in to his whiny butt daughter. Oh and there was some crime to solve to, I guess.

One little factoid I found out reading Randolph Mantooth's blog -- every single rescue was based on a real life rescue somewhere. Not necessarily in the LA area, but somewhere in the US that rescue was in the logs. THAT's versimilitude. Of course, I look at how empty the ER at Rampart was all the time and how they only seemed to have a case at a time unless there was a brush fire and laugh. I am quite sure ERs were never that empty.

They should have put it out of its misery long ago. After the Ray years definitely when they threw everything about the show away because the writers were all "OMG Laurence Fishbourne." They redeemed it a bit with the intro of DB, set him up as a supervisor, low key, not the focus of every episode. Then they should have killed it when Marg Helgenberger left and they brought in Elisabeth Shue. Where they made almost every single mistake as they did with the Ray character. The only mistake they did not make was they actually made her an experienced CSI so her knowledge made sense. But then they put her front and center and let her swallow the show. If not then, they absolutely positively should have killed it when they decided to kidnap DB's granddaughter. That was so out there as to destroy everything that had been established about his character. Sure in the early seasons there was a lot of CSI in peril, T!I!P! (Sara and DV cases comes readily to mind), not to mention personal involvement in cases they should not have been. Anyone remember Catherine butting into the investigation of the death of her ex-husband? And outlandish stuff -- a recording in a clay pot, really???? But it wasn't every other episode. It wasn't to the point you wondered why ANY of these people still had a job. Now it is clear the writers just want to write incredibly out there stories that put the CSI's in more and more danger each time. Kill it, kill it with fire and destroy all trace evidence.

At least they left the treats.

this is why I mostly listen to tv these days. I don't want to have to read all the stuff cluttering my screen. Did have to laugh when Elliott talked about having to stay off the phone and focused. Because not being focused can get people killed. When did Captain Obvious take over the Saga? Which is a bucket of rust. Great ship you bought there Elliott. Keith found the honey hole for sure. Even he was surprised how fast his fishing went. The shoot off between Edgar and Norman was hilarious. Sig and his "they haven't slept in a day and a half and now they are going to play with guns" also ranked up there on the laugh meter. If he truly felt it was not safe, he would have stopped it. I have always had a soft spot for Jonathan (which was sorely tried during the DB years) ever since the TB rescued that man overboard and he cried about it. Tonight he proved it again with his "I want everyone to do well and come home safe. I just want to do better than everyone else." Sure he is competitive as hell, but he really is a nice guy.

Wow. This show just keeps hitting on all cylinders. Every episode leaves me breathless. Now we know why Vigiliance got started. If you want an excellent movie on the perils of over surveillance I recommend Eyeborg with Adrian Paul. I watched it because well, Adrian Paul. I thought it would be cheesy. Yeah it has a lot of cheese but makes a really good statement about surveillance "evidence." Ma'am got saved by someone she would have tossed aside as expendable. Bwahahahaha. And good thing Shaw likes Finch more than she hates Ma'am. Good job reminding her Reese. Loved Reese reminding everyone repeatedly that getting Finch back was the most important thing. Yeah, he only saved everyone's lives by giving them purpose. How the hell does the Machine know there is no immediate danger? Carter anyone? Besides Decima's folks know how to hide from surveillance which means the Machine has no data to evaluate. Is it next week yet?

Presumably she explained what the tape was and who was looking for it. Then they listened to it and investigated further showing she had been set up. Then they had to get further evidence on Bracken. You don't interrupt a press conference to arrest a sitting Senator on murder charges iwthout a lot of evidence. But all that is boring so they skipped over it and went straight to the bust.

I see Kim made it to the Met Gala. At least she wasn't wearing a couch this time. ANd considering some of the other "celebs" who were there, she might not have been the tackiest.

On the plus side, the mombatross is well and truly dead this time. But honestly, Castle why do you want to marry a woman who breaks a promise to you so easily. Yeah she promised to not do this alone, but hey, the chance came up she took it. Which is a stupid ass reason. Same with the PD. Why does she still have a job? She can't even keep her gun that is in a stuff (hey a new way Beckett loses her gun) and then she goes to Vulcan and ruins any evidence against him. Good thing he wound up dead. I presume that box of stuff was not in the apartment when it went kablooey all those seasons ago? Convenient for Beckett. Honestly Bracken commits all these murders and has drug money funding his campaigns and there is absolutely no evidence? None? No one is that good, not without supernatural help. And this show is not does not do that. Then there is the preview. Oh goodie, the oldie and not goodie unknown previous marriage. Ya know, most people know they were married before and are not surprised at the license department. Really.

Well that was a waste of an episode. I don't speak Spanish so most of the show was incomprehensible to me. I do not want to have to read my tv when watching it. No Pete is not in love with Myka nor is Myka in love with him. They are friends who care for each -- and THAT. IS. IT. Do not do this to me with so few epsisodes left. Claudia and Jinx's case was hilarious. See Jinx can be funny. He just needs to let that guy out more often. Just as an aside, I think if you go to work for the Warehouse, they should pay off your student loans. I mean with the threat of getting whammied and DYING, it is the least they can do.

Marcia had kids and became a stay at home mom. Jan left teaching at some point and became an architect. She and her husband were in the process of splitting up right at the time of a Very Brady Christmas. But spending the night in the spare drawer (please don't ask) at the Brady home brought them back together.

I know, I know. I read the spoilers on TWOP because if Brendan and Rachel were going to win, I was out. I USED to be happy about the winners, now, not so much.

THAT'S WHO THAT WAS. Thank you. I could not figure out who played the old hippy and too tired to even think to go to IMDB.

Kalinda: Did you believe him? Diane: Right up until he said he didn't want any pity. Bwahahahaha. Right up there with her using Canning's disability against the SA.

Real Willie went blind? I missed that one in the books.

Boo, my Cowboys are gone. They should have u-turned the country girls. It's not wrong to use the u=turn -- even if you are Switzerland. And the COuntry Girls continue to show they should not be in this race by u-turning a team that already finished. Surprised Dave didn't complaint about being beat up by the bulls. After all he is 60. But I guess he didn't have enough energy left after STILL bitching about being u-turned by Brendan and Rachel.

I think Mythbusters is still pretty real. They don't add "skits" for the drama. It's still just take a myth and blow shit up. On the other hand, Sons of Guns has gotten so fake drama about everything that you almost forget this is a show about a gun shop. Until they go blow shit up. Clearly I am a woman of simple tastes.

Oh double damn, they are going ruin Monre and Rosalee's wedding? Why? Why can't there just be one trouble free wedding on tv? Speaking of trouble, just call the damn girl Theresa. Continuing the Trubel thing is just moronic. And look "I'm homeless so I have no social skills whatsoever, I was clearly raised by blutbaden." With a quest no less to find the Siegebarste who killed her foster parents (who probably taught her some damn manners thank you very much). But I did like how her first question of Monroe was how do you know I'm a Grimm? Took Nick 3 frigging years to ask that question. Did like when Juliette asked about housing a suspect Nick's response: Technically she is not a suspect because we know she did it. Also liked Juliette being a little irked about Nick just bring this person home and expecting her to stay indefinitely. That is something you discuss with your significant other first. No matter how understanding said SO is. That anvil about the Juliette and Nick being married hurt. I liked Bud's "Your lovely not-wife" so much better. Whiny, needy Adalinde is annoying. I liked angry Hexenmom so much better. Oh look MORE keys. Which will turn into nothing again except a season ending cliffhanger that will only lead to more loose ends next season. Tell us what the Royals are up to already.

Rhondinella if you have not read her biograpy, read it. You will not only want to have a drink with her, you will willingly pay for said drinks.

I hate when they do "competitions" with the guys. First of all, it is so fake and detracts from the show that is about cool items being pawned. Then they are always set up so that the village idiot that normally can't even seem to tie his shoes wins. Why? Because for reasons that escape me, Chumlee is popular. So they cater to the fans and have him win. So blatantly it is physically painful to watch.
