I am one of those who is quite tired of the Wesen of the Week. I think the wesen war has a lot of potential for some great story lines. The problem is that it keeps losing traction to these silly one off stories.
They were a great idea for the first few seasons to establish the concept but now we are all at one with the idea of wesen and it's time to tie up some knots and move ahead with bigger story lines.
The last two episodes have been especially weak and even the cast seems to be phoning it in.
Nick has the piece of wood....no doubt a chunk of the Cross, and besides healing, what other powers does it have? Presumably, it will give Nick something more than super hearing because for a big, tough Grimm, he sure does get he butt beat up a lot.
Once again, Nick's bedmate is a beast...and once again it's a secret. That's another cheap plot line...played for suspense for its own sake. The problem is...it feels like it's been done before....because it has. Time for everyone to just fess up and move on....and bring Adalind into their cabal....especially since that is one of the more entertaining characters.
At the moment, for every interesting move Grimm makes, they lose all of their momentum by trying to create suspense in their 'war' plot line with their weekly mystery. Instead, it just feels like more of the same old.
Enough spinning the wheels. Time to gain some traction and get moving.
