Grimm
NBC, Fridays, October 21 at 9.
Starring: Probably no one you would know. Most of this cast has had guest or bit roles on other popular shows, such as 24 and Grey’s Anatomy, but their faces aren’t tickling our memories.
Plot: The baddies from The Brothers Grimm stories are real and they start coming into our world. There was a group of hunters (Grimms) who are the protectors of our world and keep those baddies at bay. A homicide detective finds out that he is descended from the Grimms and it’s his job to protect humans.
Why We Are Excited: There is blogger disagreement here. One of us thinks it looks good. It looks like a more dramatic version of Once Upon a Time. And the police procedural thing is always attractive to one of us. Friday nights aren’t packed either, so it will be easier for us to catch.
Why We Are Not Excited: One of us thinks that this looks like a real stinker. We like fairytales, cops, and fantasy, but this might be a little TOO far-fetched. Worse, it looks like it takes itself seriously. For a show with such a fanciful premise, it doesn’t even look that creative. It looks like something one of us won’t care about.
Preview:
Anticipation Score: 4/10.

I'm with blogger #1: it could be cool! But I was also a closet fan of 'Happy Town'.
ReplyDeleteOnly time will tell, haha.
ReplyDeleteYou guys should check out the pilot. It's actually pretty good. According to metacritic, it was the least liked pilot..but I did like the show. :)
ReplyDeleteWe definitely will! If it's leaked online, we usually watch it early, but we don't post our thoughts until it has been legally aired.
ReplyDeleteThey have the pilot up on their Twitter and they are going to have the pilot in several locations this coming week. :)
ReplyDeleteSweet. Thanks for the tip.
