My point is the following. We are talking about characters development and how much we like them or not, ok?
Let’s consider Adelaind. We may like her or not. We may like her actions or not. But we can understand the porpoise of almost all her actions. She never just acts or reacts… Everything she did she did because she wanted something. This way we as viewers can judge her actions and her intentions. We can say she did the right thing for the wrong reason… or she did the wrong thing for the right reason…
Let’s talk about the royals. We know they want Diana, the keys and to rule the world again. Everything they do is to get to those objectives. Kenneth used Juliette to bring Kelly to Portland and killed Kelly… to take Diana. We can judge their reasons, their actions…
But when it comes to the main characters… Nick planned to invade the royal mansion for what? Rescue Juliette? Recover Diana? Kill the king?
Juliette was very nervous with Nick and everyone… so she accepted Kenneth’s offer… but what did she want? Kill Nick? Became a royal? Revenge? Kill Kelly?
Nick almost all the time just REact to what happened… Nick simple REACTS…
And Juliette also just reacts in those entire plots (I don’t think she planned to became Eve…).
That is what I mean with having no goal…
I still may not be understanding what you're saying, Adriano. What I was talking about is the issue of Juliette. I wasn't really referring to any goals that she would have, but rather the lack of development. For instance, her veterinarian profession. We've only seen her in the office once or twice? in the four years that Grimm has been on the air.
She did turn into a hexenbiest, but I still see that as a lack of development. We know she wanted to be human, but then one or two episodes later, she claims to be happy with the change. What the heck happened in those two episodes that made her happy with the change? One of the biggest confusions to me is this being arrested in the bar story arc. What was Juliette doing in a bar? As far as I know she's never been a bar hopper. Now all of the sudden because she's a hexenbiest she's also a barfly?
Most of the time the most memorable things anyone (myself included) can think of about Juliette is: a) she betrayed Kelly and b) she torched the trailer.
Oh yeah, I forgot: she refused Nick's proposal.
As far as I know this woman is not known for any good deeds.
Take the dweeb Adalind for an opposite. She's excused because she was told to do what she did. Or, she did what she did because she wanted her baby back. Or she did what she did because she wanted her powers back. Never mind that she has rape, assault, conspiracy, attempted murder, and probably a hundred other things to her name. The fact that she cozied up to Nick and provided a baby, and all of the sudden voices concern over the unpredictable hexenbiest makes her a good person, worthy of Nick's charitibility. We know so much more about Adalind, so I think it's easy for a lot of people to excuse her, especially with Nick's baby in tow. There's a lot of character development in Adalind.
Because there's a lot of character development there, people can relate to her. She's done good things as well as bad. Juliette, not so much if any.
