Take Monroe for instance. Izzy made a comment about the complexity of Monroe's character. I agree with that, he is a complex character. But has he changed and grown since day one? He got married. However, I still see the same guy in season four we saw in season one.
Is there a lack of character development in Grimm with regard to the main characters?
I think that's definitely been a recurring problem with the series as a whole. Juliette underwent a major change in season four when she became a Hexenbiest, but IMO, the writers completely squandered the potential her metamorphosis could have offered.
Bud is the one member of the cast who should remain fundamentally the same throughout the series, since he often provides much-needed comic relief in a very gloomy show. But there hasn't been anything too interesting done with Nick lately, at least in terms of what we've seen from protagonists in a hundred other TV shows. (That ISN'T a suggestion to turn Nick into a villain, by the way! Between "Grimm" and "Terminator: Genisys", I've had enough of seeing formerly heroic characters pull a Darth Vader.)
