Grimm TV series

Advertised as 'the hit US tv series, coming soon to the UK'...

...worth looking out for, or one to avoid? Some tasty looking trailers!

Ps I asked the same question about American Horror Story and got some great responses. The same would be appreciated

Cheers

I've been watching it since it started, it's turned out to be one of the better TV shows on at the moment, better than American Horror Story imo.

Not sure if I would label it a hit US TV series, but I've caught some episodes and enjoyed it. I'm interested in others' opinions just because I haven't decided whether or not to give it a shot yet.

I watch it. It's one of the first shows I watch when I DVR it. I would tend to think it's a little "culty" & I wouldn't be suprised if it only lasted one season because Americans tend to be more concerned with stupid, mindless crap (DWTS, The Bachelor, politics). Good thing it's on FOX though as it wouldn't stand a chance on the other major networks.

I've seen quite a few episodes of Grimm and enjoyed it. A dark crime drama where are the bad guys are real monsters but look like normal people.

Do you get The Walking Dead show in the U.K.? Now, that is definitely a show to watch but best if you watch it from the first episode to now. It would be hard to figure out some of the story lines and characters by watching random episodes. That is my current favorite TV show and I don't miss it.

Are you kidding? FOX barfed on production of the greatest show of all time, stuck it in the Friday night death slot, aired the episodes in the wrong order, and then cancelled it after half a season! They will never be forgiven... Besides, Grimm is on NBC.

I think we've had both seasons of the Walking Dead now. Think they started season 2 a few months back (maybe more).

We usually aren't too far behind, often only a few days or a week behind.

You missed the Walking Deaf thread right here in OT or something?

It's pretty good.

JacoLesFlea · #10 01-30-2012, 02:58 AM

Ive been watching since it started I like it also Once Upon a Time is good too.

Tituscrow · #11 01-30-2012, 10:14 AM

Enough positive feedback here to warrant a watch methinks.

Thanks fellas.

I like it...it has a creative twist to the crime series genre. Also reasonably well written. I have it on the DVR list.

bassbrad · #13 01-30-2012, 10:41 AM

I like the inventive twist on the classic Grimm fairy tales.

What show are you talking about?

If you're a fan of Supernatural and/or The Fades you'll most likely enjoy it.

**colcifer** · #17 01-30-2012, 02:45 PM

Firefly

UncleJimmy · #18 01-30-2012, 02:51 PM

Ok , should have guessed.

I'm kinda ticked at them for cancelling Terminator and Dollhouse just when they were getting good.

UncleJimmy · #19 01-30-2012, 02:52 PM

By the way, to the OP. Grimm is pretty decent. I'd give it a shot.

I LOVED The Fades...sadly a one season wonder, I fear.

UncleJimmy...I intend to. Thanks
