I love the series it will defineitley go down as one of my all time personal favorites, my favorite two characters on the show are Adalind and Nick with Monroe being a clsoe 3rd place for me.
The thing that actully got me into grimm orignally was the Nick and Monroe friendship which I really enjoyed. I really ejoyed Monroe and the German mythology and folklore, also Silas Weir Mitchell is easily the best actor on the show along Clarie coffee in my opinion .
I liked Nick right from the start because he was a relatable guy just trying to deal with this crazy situation his bloodline had got him into. I liked how he was different than his ancestors,he wasn’t just a mindless Wesen killer like the grimms of old, Nick befriended Wesen and usually only killed in self defense or to protect innocents from evil wesen. I also found his backstory compelling, supposedly losing his mom and Dad in a crash and being raised by his strange aunt Marie. I also really enjoyed his partnership with Hank as you could tell they really had each others backs. I also liked how Nick became more and more Grimm like as the seasons rolled on as it added more layers to his character and made him more complex than he’d originally been as a fresh faced Grimm in season 1.
Monroe, This wired sweater guy a walking encyclopedia of monsters and can rattle off those German sounding names like ingredients for his quinoa blueberry pancake. He is witty, sweet, funny, protective, and a loyal friend.
I also liked Monroes different layers, he is a reformed Blutbad (wolf-like creature); a vegan who also happens to love Pilates; plays the violin; and tinkers with clocks for a living. His unlikely friendship with the Grimm really made the show for me in the early seasons.
My favorite part of the show overall though has been Adalinds journey from villian to loving and protective mother . I also always really enjoyed the character even as a villian as I thought she always showed a naiveness and immaturity that made her more relatable to me even when she was a heinous manipulative witch in the first two and a half seasons.
While I enjoyed Adalind the first two seasons though thanks to Claire coffee’s excellent acting she didn't actually become My favorite along with Nick until season 3 when she decided to keep Diania and really showed her compassionate side for the first time and from then on I really came to love the charecter.
As I have said above my favorite relationship on the show was Nick and Monroe but my favorite romantic relationship on the show and the only one I really cared for much was Nick and Adalinds. I think the writers done a pretty horrible job of setting up the relationship, I mean they have both basically sexually assaulted each other in the past and I can understand why that would put some viewers off but this is a fantasy show after all and a lot of these characters have done horrible things on each other so it didn’t really bother me.
I never expected or needed the show to put Nick and Adalind together though Oddly enough I did see the potential with Nick and Adalind to be something quite amazing from early on. I felt the two actors had great chemistry together even as enemies in the early seasons. Also had they been given a proper build up with better writing they might have been something special but personally I enjoyed them regardless, which is saying something since I usually don’t have any intrest at all in tv romances, but there was just something about thier relationship that I really enjoyed probably due to the actors chemistry.
My three favorite seasons were, 4, 5, 3, in that order and my least favorites were 2,1,6 but I enjoyed the whole series regardless of which seasons I liked or disliked more.
What I also loved, The Medieval Weapons Handed down from Nick’s Grimm ancestors, each of these weapons is designed to kill different kinds of wesen from all over the world.
My particular favorite weapon was the one that generated a targeted sound wave strong enough to destroy a Murcielago (a bat-like wesen). I enjoyed that episode. And that powerful triple barrel rifle? Awesome! It is the weapon with bullets that can penetrate a thick Siegbarst (ogre-like wesen) skin. Monroe branded it as the ogre gun.
I also enjoyed the fact that Monroe found someone to care for him as much as Rosalee does, I’m glad they found each other even if I personally never really found their relationship that interesting, I definitely think they had great chemistry with each other but I never really was that invested in thier relationship.
The Grimm books Just like the weapons, Nick inherited the books. I really enjoyed Nick reading handwritten accounts by generations of Grimms about their personal experience on their first encounter of wesen. The books illustrate how to destroy these creatures. It is a mine of information for wesen hunters. The books were also an excellent way to tie the Grimm series mythology with real actual historical events which I found fascinating as I absolutely love history.
