Well, that was stupid

I'm amazed at how many people enjoyed the truly wretched finale of Grimm. Perhaps it's because the last couple of seasons have been weak and the people most likely to hate the ending had already stopped watching?

Anyway, like much of the later seasons, Grimm wants to be big and apocalyptic. An evil, all-powerful creature wants to marry Adalind's morally ambiguous, all-powerful little girl and create hell on earth. This involves that mysterious stick and the evil guy's success relies to a great part on the characters blindly running into situations without proper research.

So the evil creature kills everyone Nick loves. It was a bit of a shock the first time it happened, but with each additional death it became increasingly obvious that they would all be brought back to life, because network television, which made the overwrought emoting increasingly annoying.

And then, sure enough, they brought everyone back to life, as though Nick had just woken up after his trip to Oz and was saying, you were all there, even Toto.

Look, Grimm was always a silly show, but I'm not sure it ever got quite this stupid before. It's a shame that it had to go out in such ridiculous fashion.
