And So It Begins! S1E1: Grimm Pilot

 And so it begins! My grandma and I have officially restarted Grimm. It's always so weird seeing everyone so young, especially Nick! He had suchhhh a baby face! Early Nick and Juliette is one of my favorite things about this show. 

The Trailer:

    So- throughout the six seasons of this show, so many questions about this trailer come to light. First of all, how on earth do they drive it without anything falling or breaking?? I mean there are dozens of glass bottles and none of them break! Even when he drives it into the woods, which could not have been a smooth ride. Also, the amount of times Nick, Monroe, Hank and Wu are eating fast food, fries, cheeseburgers, and drinks, while reading those books! with no care about clean hands and keeping grease, salt and condensation away from the priceless historic Grimm books. 

Monroe:

    It always hits me in this episode how early on it is for everyone. Nick has only been a detective for about a year and hadn't shot anyone until now. And Monroe only recently started his strict regimen of pilates, vegetarianism and calming cello music. (He also mentioned using drugs to keep himself in check but we never see or hear anything after that that suggests he was taking anything). You can tell how early it is for him because he's still marking his territory and when he goes to help Nick at the cabin, he can't even get close to a situation like that without losing control. It really speaks to his self control that he ends up in some of the situations he does in this show and never once loses control.
