Grimm is an American fantasy police procedural drama television series created by Stephen
Carpenter and Jim Kouf and produced by Universal Television for NBC. The series aired from
October 28, 2011 to March 31, 2017, for 123 episodes, over six seasons.[1] The series' narrative
follows Portland Homicide detective, Nick Burkhardt (played by David Giuntoli), who discovers he
is a Grimm, the latest in a line of Guardians who are sworn to keep the balance between
humanity and mythological creatures, known as Wesen. The series features a supporting cast,
consisting of Russell Hornsby, Bitsie Tulloch, Silas Weir Mitchell, Sasha Roiz, Reggie Lee, Bree
Turner and Claire Coffee.
Grimm was originally developed for CBS, but plans were canceled due to the writers' strike. In
January 2011, NBC opted for the series. It has been described as "a cop dramawith a twist... a
dark and fantastical project about a world in which characters inspired by Grimms' Fairy
Tales exist",[2] although the stories and characters inspiring the show are also drawn from other
sources. The series initially garnered mixed reviews from critics, though reception grew more
favorably throughout the series' run. The sixth and final season of Grimm premiered on January
7, 2017 and concluded on March 31, 2017.

Synopsis[edit]
Homicide investigator Nick Burkhardt of the Portland Police Department learns he is descended
from a line of guardians known as Grimms, charged with keeping balance between humanity and
the Wesen, or mythological creatures of the world (Wesen is the German word
for being or creature). Throughout the series, he must battle against an assortment of dangerous
creatures, with help from his Wesen friend, Monroe, and his partner, Detective Hank Griffin.[3]
Opening: "There once was a man who lived a life so strange, it had to be true. Only he could
see what no one else canthe darkness inside, the real monster within, and he's the one who
must stop them. This is his calling. This is his duty. This is the life of a Grimm."
Cast and characters[edit]
Main article: List of Grimm characters

David Giuntoli as Nicholas "Nick" Burkhardt, the eponymous Grimm. Nick is a

Homicide detective whose Aunt Marie (Kate Burton) tells him that he is descended from a
line of hunters, called Grimms, who fight supernatural forces. Even before his abilities
manifest, Nick had an exceptional ability to make quick and accurate deductions about the
motivations and pasts of individuals, which has now expressed itself as his ability to perceive
aspects of the supernatural that nobody else can see. He temporarily loses his Grimm power
after the event of Season 3 finale through a revenge scheme by Adalind, but regains them in
the Season 4 episode "Highway of Tears". He later learns that Adalind is carrying his child,
which is revealed to be a boy whom Adalind names "Kelly" after Nick's mother (Mary
Elizabeth Mastrantonio).
Russell Hornsby as Hank Griffin, Nick's Homicide partner, who is not aware that Nick is
a Grimm until Episode 3 of Season 2. He is somewhat sarcastic at times and has gone
through at least four marriages by the time the series begins; nevertheless, he is Nick's best
friend in the human world, becoming closer once again after Nick reveals the truth about
his Grimm heritage and the Wesen out in the world.
Bitsie Tulloch as Juliette Silverton (Seasons 14) and Eve (Seasons 56), Nick's girlfriend,
a veterinarian. She is originally unaware of Nick's duties as a Grimm until he tells her in the
finale of Season 1. However, by Season 2, a magically induced amnesia removes Nick from
her memory altogether, to the extent that she only forgets Nick while still remembering
characters like Monroe when she only met him through Nick. Although Nick's Aunt Marie
suggests that he leave Juliette for her safety, Nick decides to stay with her. He postpones his
original plans to propose to her while he explores his new life as a Grimm. She eventually
regains her memories and learns the truth of Nick's abilities, joining him in dealing with some
Wesen-related problems, such as finding a cure for a disease that give human children the
appearance of Wesen. In Season 4, a series of events and dangerous spells results in
Juliette becoming an exceptionally powerful Hexenbiest, and her personality becomes
drastically more antagonistic and less empathetic as a result, enjoying her power while
disregarding her friends' concerns or hating Nick's allies for doing this to her. After her plans
for revenge culminate in the death of Nick's mother, she is shot with a crossbow by Trubel in
the Season 4 finale. In Season 5, Tulloch plays "Eve", a mysterious woman who has all of
Juliettes memories and powers, but none of her emotional attachments.[4]
Silas Weir Mitchell as Monroe, a wolf-like creature called a Blutbad[5] who aids Nick with his
cases. He is also a good friend of Nick's, even though he has some issues
with Grimms since a Grimm killed his grandfather (but he acknowledges that the ancestor
deserved it for butchering a village). Monroe is knowledgeable about many of the wesen that
Nick goes up against, serving as Nick's direct source of insight and information into the
supernatural community whenever the second-hand knowledge that Nick acquires from his
ancestors' books is inadequate, as well as assisting Nick when cases require Nick to rely on
someone who knows about the threats he faces. He also helps Nick make contact with
creatures that would avoid Nick due to his status as a Grimm. Eventually, Monroe falls in
love with and marries Rosalee, despite facing some hostility from a Wesen cult focused on
purity due to their mixed heritage.
Sasha Roiz as Captain Sean Renard, a fluent francophone and russophone; Nick's adept
and efficient superior. Renard is a magical creature called Zauberbiest and royal bastard. His
mother Elizabeth (Louise Lombard) is a Hexenbiest, a witch; and his father is royalty, a fact
of which Nick is not aware of until the middle of Season 2. He is also the father
of Hexenbiest Adalind Schade's daughter Diana. In Season 5 he is manipulated into running
for mayor as part of a plan by pro-Wesen organization Black Claw, who seek to put Wesen in
a position of power over humans rather than hiding among them.
Reggie Lee as Sergeant Drew Wu, a police sergeant who works with Nick and Hank; he
tends to do the "grunt work" for them, running down facts and information. In Episode 9 (at
the beginning) of Season 4, Nick is forced to tell him everything about the Wesen world after
he starts losing his mind due to all the "Wesen" involved murder cases. From then on he is a
 loyal member of Nick's team, providing an additional hand in the field. As of Season 5 when
he is scratched by a Blutbad infected with Lycanthropia Wu is a Lycanthrope. At first unable
to control his primal emotions, Wu eventually learns to control his transformations and is now
able to woge into a Neanderthal like version of a Blutbad.
Bree Turner as Rosalee Calvert (Recurring Season 1; Regular Seasons 26), a fox-like
creature called Fuchsbau who takes over her brother's Wesen spice shop after he is
murdered. Rosalee assists Nick and Monroe in their efforts by providing more information
and remedies to supernatural problems, such as helping him extract a golden 'tumor' from a
bird-like Wesen or developing a cure for Nick's Wesen-induced blindness. She marries
Monroe in the Season 3 finale and reveals she is pregnant in the Season 5 finale.
Claire Coffee as Adalind Schade (Recurring Season 1; Regular Seasons 26), a witch-like
wesen called a Hexenbiest who is working for Renard and who after ingesting Nick's blood
becomes a normal human being. Seeking revenge, she poisons Juliette to forget all
memories of Nick and starts colluding with Renard's half-brother Eric, eventually regaining
her powers through agonizing rituals. She has a daughter with Sean, Diana Schade-Renard,
who has unique powers. Later on, she gives birth by emergency c-section to her second
child, a boy she names Kelly (after Kelly Burkhardt), whose father is revealed to be Nick as
she slept with him during a complex ritual to take his powers that involved her disguising
herself as Juliette. After Juliette is transformed into Eve, Adalind moves in with Nick to care
for Kelly, the two even forming a relationship, but this is complicated by the Black Claw's
attempts to use Diana to improve Renard's image in his mayoral campaign

Episodes[edit]
Main article: List of Grimm episodes
Many of the episodes are loosely based on stories published by The Brothers Grimm, albeit with
considerable artistic license taken. For example, the pilot centered around a wolf-man who
preyed on women who wore red. Other episodes are based on other sources, including fables
and legends, not published by The Brothers Grimm.

Production[edit]
Development and filming[edit]

Production notice posted in Portland in October 2013

In 2008, CBS canceled development on a drama called Brother Grimm, from Stephen Carpenter
and production companies CBS Paramount Television and Hazy Mills Productions, because of
the writers' strike.[11]
In January 2011, NBC announced that it had ordered a series titled Grimm.[12] David
Greenwalt and Jim Kouf co-wrote the pilot, which was directed by Marc Buckland. Filming for the
pilot began in March in Portland, Oregon.[2] In May 2011, NBC announced that it had picked up
the series for a full season.[13]
Greenwalt and Kouf served as executive producers for the series along with Sean Hayes and
Todd Milliner.[14] The series was produced by Universal Media Studios and Hazy Mills
Productions. It was filmed on location in and around Portland.[15] Greenwalt and Kouf told
Portland's NBC affiliate KGW [citation needed] they chose Portland because of its plentiful forests in the
city's two largest parks, Washington Park and Forest Park.
On September 30, 2011, NBC delayed the debut of Grimm by one month, moving the premiere
to October 28, 2011, so it could premiere closer to Halloween.[16] On November 21, 2011, NBC
picked up the series for a full 22-episode season.[17] NBC showed a special Thursday showing on
December 8 at 10pm to see if the network's overall ratings could improve.[18]
On March 16, 2012, NBC announced that the series had been renewed for a second
season;[19] according to writers/producers David Greenwalt and Jim Kouf, they would continue to
film the show in Portland, saying "Rain or shine, Portland has been the ideal setting for fairy tales
with its enchanting layout. It is its own character in our show with the perfect mix of urban and
rural settings."[20] Grimm ran on Fridays for the entirety of its first season.[21] The second season
premiered on Monday, August 13, 2012, and continued on Mondays for four episodes, before
returning to its original Friday timeslot on September 10.[22]
On April 19, 2013, NBC announced they would move Grimm to Tuesdays beginning on April 30,
2013 for the remainder of Season 2 until May 21.[23] Grimm was renewed for a third season on
April 26, 2013.[24] The third-season premiere on October 25, 2013 returned the show to its original
Friday timeslot. On March 19, 2014, NBC announced that Grimm had been renewed for a fourth
season, which premiered on Friday, October 24, 2014.[25][26]
On February 5, 2015, NBC confirmed a fifth season for Grimm, which premiered on Friday,
October 30, 2015.[27][28]
On April 23, 2016, NBC confirmed at least 13 episodes for a sixth season.[29]
Casting[edit]
David Giuntoli, who plays Nick, was the first to be cast.[30] Silas Weir Mitchell was then cast as
Monroe, the now-reformed "big bad wolf".[31] Following this, Russell Hornsby and Bitsie
Tulloch were cast as Nick's partner Hank and his girlfriend Juliette, respectively.[32] Sasha
Roiz was cast in the final regular role as Captain Renard.[33]
Bree Turner, who guest starred in four episodes in Season 1, became a series regular for
Season 2, continuing her role as Rosalee Calvert.[34] Claire Coffee, who has been recurring as
Adalind Schade since the pilot, was also upgraded to series regular during Season 2.[35]

Reception[edit]
Critical reception[edit]
The series's premiere received mixed reviews from critics, based on Metacritic's index score of
55 out of 100.[36]
Tim Goodman of The Hollywood Reporter felt "It has chills and humor and the ability to take a
procedural story and twist it."[37] Mike Hale of The New York Times said "Some of the jokes work,
and some of the frights are actually scary, and on a repeat viewing the craftsmanship and
attention to detail made more of an impression."[38]
Mary McNamara of the Los Angeles Times wrote in a mixed review that she preferred other fairy-
tale themed dramas, such as ABC's Once Upon a Time, stating that despite a good cast and
setting, Grimm puts an "entertaining crime spin on fairy-tale monsters that's a little too pat...[And]
adds up to a nice, moody, entertaining-enough hour and the troublesome question of how
interesting this will be by the third episode."[39]
Daynah Burnett, who reviewed the program for PopMatters, felt "As Grimm grasps for compelling
analogues between fairy tales' villains and ours, its stories turn exceedingly literal: wolves urinate
in the corners of their lawns to mark their territory, rather than lurk (and mark) in ways less
obvious and more culturally meaningful. There's certainly room here for these archetypes to be
explored as the series develops, but when Nick's prime suspect for the red-hoodie crimes turns
out to live in an actual cottage in the woods, it doesn't bode well for how these stories might
reflect the lives of viewers", before giving it a score of 4 out of 10.[40]
The second season received a more favorable response, with a score of 73 out of 100 on
Metacritic, based on four reviews.[41] The Los Angeles Times said of the second-season
premiere, "it's hard not to love a show with a comely apothecary, and it's impossible not to love
the new season of Grimm."[42]
Mike Hale of The New York Times said of season three, "Grimm is not a profound show (what
is?), but few are more purely entertaining engaging, clever, tense, funny, well paced and
featuring a remarkably appealing cast as the friends and colleagues who help Nick."[43]
Ratings[edit]
A press release put out by NBC on November 11, 2011, states "Grimm and Up All Night Are the
#1 New Drama and #1 New Comedy Among Top % Gainers Going from Live+Same Day to
Live+7. Grimm is the #1 new drama on ABC, CBS, NBC or Fox in terms of percentage increase
from L+SD to L+7 so far this season and also the #1 new series and the #2 show overall behind
only Fox's Fringe (+57%), growing by +49% in adults 1849 (to a 2.98 rating from a 2.00)"[44] The
series, which has been averaging about 6.4 million U.S. viewers during its first season,[20] has
been renewed for a second season.[19] Friday September, 28th, 2012, "Grimm" has increased its
adult 18-49 rating by 1.14 points going from "live plus same day" ratings to "live plus three day"
results from Nielsen Media Research (from a 1.58 to a 2.72). The 1.14 increase is "Grimm's"
biggest gain ever going from L+SD to L+3. The 2.72 is "Grimm's" highest L+3 rating since the
show's second-season premiere on Monday, Aug. 13.[45]
