Just leave the original gang as they are and tell a new story. I don't believe in trying to recapture the magic. They could sprinkle Easter eggs throughout the show where we know what they're referencing but never show it.
I will give it a shot but will probably be disappointed by the fact that it is not really Grimm. But if Nick and the gang appear in single episodes, I will watch those episodes.
When Grimm was new, the concept of the Grimm/Wesen-world itself was what made the series interesting. The spin-off will not have the same advantage. Although there were many things to like about the original show, over time, maybe the most important factor in making Grimm a fantastic show was the characters and the chemistry between them. That is very difficult to recreate with new people.
In Grimm, everything revolved around Nick. If Monroe and Roselee found out about a new Grimm, their first reaction would be: “we have to tell Nick”. They would not leave Portland to be involved in some new Grimm- adventures without him. The only Grimm-characters they could involve as a regular or guest star without Nick would probably be Trubel. Although I liked Trubel, I would not watch the show just because of her.
