What I saw as a problem with the BC/HW story line was it brought up the question. Why do we need Nick. You had HW with much more abilities then Nick. If they had made HW a Grimm organization then it would have worked. It would have made sense why we needed Nick.
To me season 5 started off ok. Even the introduction of Eve seemed to work. But when they got to the stick, Adalind going to the mansion, followed by the final show down. The show was really disconnected. It really seemed like they where playing it by ear from one episode to another. The others seasons seemed like from the beginning there was a direction they where going.
I would have liked to see that point in time where Adalind made some major gesture, where she considered the others interest even at the detriment of her own. Helping with the trust me knot, and with Monroe getting the suit and tie. Was not that big of gesture. Especially seeing how the other had been shown actually putting their lives on the line. Even Eve's introduction showed her taking on an entire BC cell. When Adalind went to the mansion I was expecting to see her working from the inside to take down BC.
It seems like after the beast fight. Adalind lost all of her confidence, arrogance and sense of self. It really seemed like they wanted to pushing the issue that she was rejecting her being a hexenbiest. Maybe it was a way to contrast with Juliette accepting being a hexenbiest. To me it didn't work. Adalind is a hexenbiest and it is what made her a great character.
AS for Eve, I liked the character, but would have preferred seeing Juliette learning to be a wesen. Have it show the problems wesen have living among humans. The problems of being around her friends as a wessen. They still could have had Nick and Juliette break up with the reason being Juliette needing to learn who and what she is and how she fits in. The same as Eve was dealing with, but they should have done it as Juliette. I know the storyline of why they created Eve. I just do not see why the writers choose that direction. It is like they had a plan that they did not follow through on. It could have been Bitsie getting injured in season 4 made it not possible to do what they had planned with the Eve character. That could also be why season five seem so disconnected. If you noticed Eve went from being an action character to being more dramatic.
The zestora story line did seem to be thought out. You could tell they where wrapping up a lot of the questions people had about the characters. They spent more time giving each character a chance to have their farewell scene. Especially at the end they did seem to be trying to setup for a future story about the continuing legacy of Grimms. This was good because the last two season asked the question why do we need Nick.
