    I can only say that I loved watching this TV series, along with my family, and it caught our attention. Thanks to the production team, for all the moments of pleasure created, and lovely TV series characters.
    In short, against critics, I and my family have been excited about this movie!

    It's one of my favorite shows. I like the character development and plot. Was pretty sad to find out the show has been canceled. It would've been better if the cast isn't creepily homogeneous though.

    Grimm is by far, one of the best tv shows out there and is my favorite tv show. I have watched the show since the beginning and fell in love with it during episode one.

The show's concept of the Grimm, starring police detective Nick Burkhardt, as well as the idea of recreating the beloved and even wicked, Grimm's fairy tales into a modern tv show is brilliant. It is definitely a show worth watching and I'm truly disappointed that that it's ending. There is so much about this show that should be said but there honestly isn't enough words to express Grimm, or how impressed that I am about the show and it's final season. Grimm constantly keeps me coming back for more. With its new spin on the Brothers Grimm Fairy Tales, along with its memorable characters who I have grown to love, as well as the incredible episodes that I admit, watch over and over again, Grimm is my favorite show on the planet! I love the show and will continue to watch and support it indefinitely even after it ends, I will definitely miss watching Grimm.… Expand

    At first, it seems a non sense fantasy targeting mainly teens, but somehow it catches your interest and curiosity. The links with real historical facts are well crafted, always in a creative and sometimes unexpected way. It gets a little redundant at times, but, all in all it is very entertaining.. I like it

    finally more Grimms

    up until now there has only been one Grimm (with an implied second Grimm).

    There can be only one does not apply here.

    There are too few episodes per season although more than the pittance that socialist states offer (sherlock: 3/season)

    Original, Non-cringe, great dialogue, convincing visual effects, and great acting round out this absolute treat of a show. For those that are looking for intelligent characters on screen that do not constantly make the same stupid mistakes you've seen made in a hundred other shows, this is the show for you.

    The show is great, you start feeling for the characters, and hope they don't get hurt. The bad guys are portrayed exactly as that, bad guys. Monroe is one of the greatest characters on TV

    This is a great show with a lot of quirky characters and people. It borders on the surreal. Looks like NBC has another winner on the schedule board! David Guintoni is excellent in his role and Silas Weir knocks it out of the park as David's sidekick, The Wolfman!

    If you are a fan of X-files or wish Supernaturals would have a less annoying characters, you will most likely love the Grimm.

    This is the best new concept show on broadcast TV. Grimm was a very good show with very little downside, good concept, good script, good acting.

    I think Nick, Monroe, Hank and Captain Sean Renard were the reason for this success, not that there were any woman up till now. I like Juliette, as Nicks girlfriend. I like Dr. Harper as Monroe's love interest.

    Love this series. Love the Grimm Fairy tales and even though how they are being applied here doesn't always make sense, the show holds some promise. The lead character is not very strong but the supporting cast makes up for his lack of charisma, especially the big bad wolf. Have to see more episodes but I am looking forward to it.

    Decent show. A bit confused still about who can see whom and when & why some people can see past the cover while others cant. This is a bit selective and seems to be planted at times for the storylines convenience. Maybe the writers should find a way to address this

    The show gets better with each episode, nice take on the fairy tale characters by incorporating them into modern day world. I only found a couple of episodes to be lame (the reason I didn't give it a perfect 10) - the ones that are darker and "Grimm" are the best. The acting by the main cast is good.

    This show is by far the best show of its kind in television. The stories are well written and every story leaves you a clue to the bigger story of the season and it keeps you engaged as well as interested. The actors all do a great job in their characters and the graphics with respect to the different creature faces are great.

    Well I m a German too, still i absolutely love this show. Its creepy, dark and supernatural mixed with my childhood storybooks. I am happy they DO NOT go exactly after these books though, since it would be boring and you know how its gonna turn out. It also shows how these monsters have/want to try and just live a normal life. AND they decide to be good or bad, not their heritage.

    I think the interaction with the werewolf is great, hes my favorite character. He is such a sweet, decent and educated person, its is really hard not to like him.
    They give each character so much depth (besides the main character and his wife/gf for some reason), that you can end up cheering for a monster.    … Expand

    This is a really great show. I really enjoy it and I hope that they don't cancel it like they have with so many other Joss Whedon shows. The episodes keep me on the edge of my seat from the beginning to the end and I find myself counting down the days till the next episode. This show has a great cast and an excellent plot and I would definitely recommend watching it.

    Building a mythology like Buffy, and by episodes 5 and 6 has built some strong characters and is layering in the mysteries. Particularly took a step forward with Danse Macabre. The growing grey areas is also very good. There are evil humans and good monsters as well as well as the other way around. Repeating the resemblances to Buffy, but, again, that is not a bad thing as of yet.

    Mythology, fairy tales, urban myths, and detective work all rolled into one. It could have been a cluttered mess, but it's fabulous. It isn't strict to the old stories, seeing them more as rumor than rule and it leaves a lot of room for an updated plot.

    Great show, and interesting recreation of the old stories. The 3 male main characters have great chemistry. The female romance interest is a bit lack luster, but the great casting for all the other characters makes up for it.

    Grimm is most alive in the scenes where Nick teams up with Monroe (Silas Weir Mitchell), a monster who is trying hard to walk the straight path. These moments introduce some much-needed levity to a drama where every echoing slam of a file-cabinet drawer amounts to a portentous groan.

    There's a potentially good supernatural cop show to be made, and certain pieces in place to make this into that. But the version you'll see on NBC tonight seems to be embracing the show's likely failure by being something few will miss if it doesn't work out.
