NBC to Develop a Grimm Spinoff Series With Female Lead

Deadline reports that NBC is currently in the process of developing a new spinoff based off their popular supernatural series Grimm with a female character in the lead. The untitled Grimm spinoff is expected to feature some of the original show’s fan favorite characters while also introducing new characters, new dangers and epic new mysteries.

What kinda feminazi, SJW crap is this.

 

[Teelie]

I wonder if the daughter is going to be the lead. It's not likely but she and her half-brother were shown carrying on the family tradition in the finale.

 

[tanita_mors]

Yeah, but shouldn't a Grimm be an actual human with powers to slay the creatures ? The Daughter was an offspring of a Hexenbiest and a Zauberbiest with some extra powers, while the son is half human half Hexen.

 

[Teelie]

I don't know why the Grimm has to be human. Monroe was full Blutbad and helping out Nick. So was Adalind by the end and she was a Hexenbiest.

 

[tanita_mors]

Well, I thought that a Grimm was also a sort of creature and also human. I mean, Nick would have a reaction when he saw a true face of any beast, his eyes would become completely black - that is how they knew he was a Grimm. Anyway, I thought that was the lore. You can be a part of the Grimm gang, but to be an actual Grimm you can't be any other creature.

I don't mind if Nick's kids end up being the leads, it makes sense, I'm just pointing out what I remember of the lore.

 

[Teelie]

His kids are 50% Grimm, whatever Grimms are, so they could well inherit that trait as well.

 

[tanita_mors]

Well, his son is 50 % Grimm. Diana isn't his daughter biologically, thought who knows what she is, given that she was in-utero when her mother became a Hexen again.

 

[Teelie]

That's right. Still too early to do thinking.

 

[Wyrminarrd]

It doesn't make sense to have the kids be the leads of the series since they are way to young. The show would have to be set 10 years in the future to make the daughter work as a lead and closer to 18 years for the son.

Its almost certainly better for the show to go with a new character as the lead Grimm and introduce the shows world to the audience through her eyes as she discovers that monsters are real.

 

[Teelie]

I'm going to assume a lot of people who tune into a Grimm spin off will already be familar with the series premise, and nothing says the show can't jump forward a few years. We don't have to see them as full grown adults. Teenagers is old enough. Plus it gives the show a chance to grow with them as they learn how to hunt down the Wesen.

Wasn't the final scene in the show a flash-forward with a grown up Diane and Kelly ?




And going by the dialog, they are Grimming together with the triplets.
