FALL PREVIEW: Grimm (NBC)



Grimm (NBC)

What It's About: Nick, a homicide detective begins to see horrific visions which he believes is hallucinations. But he soon realizes that he isn't have hallucinations, but rather what he sees is a gift he inherited from his family, the original Grimm Family. Nick now has the power to be able to see supernatural creatures that look like ordinary human beings and is able to have an edge in solving cases at work.

The Good: Vampires, werewolves, zombies and all things supernatural. This show will no doubt cater to all that craze right now. It is a procedural that manages to take a new spin on something old.

The Bad: The Pilot Episode follows the Little Red Riding Hood case, and there is so much supernatural set-up to the show that there is no room for character development making Nick a bit two-dimensional.

My Thoughts: A show that could possibly do well thanks to its supernatural elements attached to a procedural concept, this show is interesting though the special effects of the creatures look a bit like late 90's television dramas (Yes, I mean you Buffy).

When It's On: Fridays at 9/8c.
