Grimm (TV) Thread

I will watch another episide with hopes that it will get better. So far it hasn't grabbed me at all.

EDIT: I was however impressed that the cast were adults and not teens.  that is something in it's favour.

I'll have to say I was also underwhelmed at the first episode, but AHS's 1st episode didn't light my fire, either.  So, yep, wait and see what they have up their sleeves.  (Conundrum with shows that may become good- they need to establish characters, which takes time, but can also turn off the audience with today's "ooo shiny" attention span)

I'm kind of disappointed to see the reaction to this show.  I, for one, am loving it.  I think the combination of children's fairy tales into a modern police story to be completely intriguing.  This is right up there with "Once Upon a Time" for me with a completely different vibe (not better, not worse.)  For me, this is a more horror aspect to the fairy tale where as Once Upon a Time has more of the fantasy value of it.

I do have a question about the third episode though.  It's the story about the bees.  My initial reaction was that it was a pied piper reference.  However, when the bees came into play, I couldn't figure out what Grimm story it followed.  Any ideas?

One final comment.  The poll that's associated with this thread is between two great storytellers (or compilers of stories) are pretty racist if you look at their story history.  It's a shame really.

EDIT:

Weird, it only posted half of my post.

This is due to start in the UK soon. What's the verdict - worth watching or not?

I like  it.
