For me the WOW in 5.16 was OK, but did not rise to the entertainment quality of those in season 1.
There is a lot of discussion about the FrankenEve transformation to Renard.
My wife thought it was hilarious. I thought it was funny to watch Sasha Roiz taking on FrankenEve's robot movement and speech patterns. He did a great job of showing how phony the fake Renard came across. It seemed odd that Rachel didn't confront "him" about what was wrong. The shot of them sitting up in bed together was funny. If Grimm was a comedy then it would have been a success. As an American police procedural fantasy the scene was a flop.
As Belle commented:
Quote:Unfortunately that scene with Rosalee declaring Juliette was no longer in Eve was painfully bad. Their desperation to convince viewers Julieve is someone new is showing. I sincerely hopemthey get rid of her before next season.Amen,

This entire episode made me cringe, but that particular story thread made me cringe in a funny way. Sasha is so talented.
If my roomie ever catches up on this show I'm skipping everything but his scenes and the clip at the end where they're translating the writing on the cloth.
