They wrote Claire's pregnancy in the series and decided to make it Nick's for the added drama. I get the need to deliberate over stuff in the show but some of it ends up being ridiculous just for the sake of fitting your own narratives.
LOL, I really think you and many are missing the point. Some of us may enjoy the show at various levels, but some of us also believe the writing and scripting leave more than a little to be desired. So for some, we simply enjoy debating what the show would be in reality, or other plausible or even superior plot lines that could have been developed.
That is what social media is for. From my vantage it makes little sense to discuss the show as is, it is all just there, just rewatch it. But exploring other options, potential motivation you learn about other people, how they view the world, and thus grow as a person. I know I have learned so much from JellyFish and Robyn (among others) simply because they are women and I am a man. Adriano has stretched my scope of vision too. And most of it has not a darn thing to do with Grimm other then they show brought us together to express our thoughts and views of he world.
And something you and others may not be aware of, there are several spin off, private forums that serve as adjuncts to this forum. People start their own discussion groups so they feel comfortable discussing things at a more substantiative level without the usual suspects griping about what does that have to do with some aspect of the show.
So what you see here is only the tip of the iceberg. That is what social media does, you get a chance in a forum like this to express yourself and oft like minded people will reach out to you and you will the find camaraderie in a more intimate forum or private messaging. But none of that would be possible if all you did is discuss the show in the context of the script of the writers, because they scripts do not imitate real life closely enough to allow personality to emerge in discussion. It is too narrow a scope to allow for substantive free expression.
To be clear I would rather go back and forth with my Grimm forum buddies than actually watch a minute of Grimm. One had the potential to elevate me as person, the other is entertainment.
Oxford commas are so totally rad!.
