    And there we are, the conclusion to the Grimm saga. 5 and a half seasons that started off with an almost endless scope for ongoing storylines and character development, but ultimately fizzled out with a completely 'new' concept being added to allow for (most of) the intertwined stories to end.

    I can't help but be very disappointed. The whole concept of the show, dealt with the secrecy of the Wesen world and their everlasting struggle against the Grimm who weed out the truly nasty ones whilst leaving the vast majority to get on with their lives.
    The house of cards came crashing down when the main subplot (the 'treasure' hidden by the Crusaders and the keys which, when put together, would allow it to be found) was very unsatisfactorily brought to end when an unknown Grimm (who had 3 keys) died and sent his stuff to Monroe. This allowed the treasure (a magic stick) to be recovered.

    This brought an end to the antagonistic 'Royals', and ended the main subplot involving Renard (and meant several key (no pun intended) characters and other related ideas just vanished), and we got Season 5's 'Black Claw'/Hadrian's Wall Wesen uprising... Which again was concluded incredibly stupidly and left the show with nowhere to go but with Season 6's whole new 'super bad guy' idea, simply to bring in the notion of a prophecy that ... yawn.... Sorry, it's just so contrived I can't bring myself to even go into it...

    The seasons concluded with what was a very action packed episode, loads of action, deaths, blood and emotion... And it did make me yearn for the earlier seasons where Nick spent more time kicking ass and learning about himself and the Wesen world he lived in.
    But action is no substitute for actual satisfaction, and I'm sorry to say that the whole sheer volume of exposition in season 6, couple with the deus ex machina ending made it seem like more of a mercy killing.
    If only those behind the camera had decided (at the end of Season 4) to keep Juliet dead, and give Nick a reason to seek out the keys from the Royals, and used the revelation of the treasure (hopefully not just being a stick!) to bring about a more interesting ending...

    Sigh... Wasted potential leading to meaningless ending...    … Expand

    The Season 6 premiere moves at a brisk clip, efficiently dispensing of much of last season's dead weight, and offering its own incidental pleasures, including the nifty duo of Hank and Wu, who stay busy keeping track of Renard and feeding inside info to Nick. The ending is a typical Grimm cliffhanger, which revs up the suspense and reminds us how good it is to have Grimm back again, for one last go-round.
