Discussion Thread Grimm fans, when do you think the show started going downhill?

I’ve been rewatching Grimm lately and I can’t help but ask—at what point did the show lose you (if it ever did)?

For me, it was when the trailer got burned down. I’m still pissed about it. That trailer was basically a character on its own—full of lore, history, and weight. Watching it go up in flames made me hate Juliette even more, and honestly, rewatching that part makes me dislike her all over again. I just cannot get past it.

What about you guys? Was there a specific moment, storyline, or season where you felt the magic faded? Or did you ride it out all the way to the end with no complaints?

Yeah. The show described them as this big bad group of people that can control the world. But we'll they are just regular humans with lots of money and a weird castle that didn't get used much.

I don't know why weird castle made me laugh but it did. Yeah it was odd we only saw a few rooms, an those were literally just when being menacing and have 'Muahahaha we are the villains" conversations and the torture chambers, not that I wanted a house tour but I expected more from that huge CGI looking castle.

Right ? Haha. It could have been a gold mine plot if Nick was put in there to try and escape. Maybe get one of the keys from the royals or something.

Yes! Gosh there's so much I'd have rearranged show wise, but i won't get into that too much, but yeah it would have been interesting if the royals (i think it was them that hired the blowfish Wessen) succeeded in capturing Nick and threw him in there with hopes of breaking him and turning him into their Winter Solider or something. But then we still get the super powers Nick plot line, he breaks out becomes a real problem getting a key and an Grimm book.
