Board Thread:General Grimm Discussion/@comment-76.67.125.146-20151108024526

Zapit recently released an article (if someone could post a link, that would be great) where actor David Giontoli tells us (amoung other things) that another main character (someone who has been with use "since the beginning") will breathe their last before the season is up. And just when I was getting over the suprise of juliettes death...

(Not really. I saw that happening a mile away)

This of course leads to a certain question; who the hell are they going to bump off now? While we cannot read the minds of the writers, we can make an educated guess as who are potential corpses.

The main characters still alive, as of now, are...

Nick, Monroe, Rosalee, Hank, Wu, Sean and Adalind.

Now, who can we eliminate outright?

The show is called Grimm, so I highly doubt that Nick will be the one killed.

Rosalee is also safe by virtue of the fact that she has not been with us "since the begining" (Rosalee was introduced halfway through season 1, whereas everyone else has been present since the pilot).

That leaves Monroe, Hank, Wu, Sean and Adalind. So the question now is which one of them is the most likely to die?

Monroe?

No. Just no. While killing Monroe off would be a MASSIVE plot twist, I have a feeling the writers don't want to be lynched by an angry mob. Monroe is easily the heart and soul of the show, and a lot of people would stop watching if they killed him. I would probably look for the writer responsible and strangle them.

So no, I do not think Monroe is in danger. He'd BETTER not be...

What about Hank and Wu?

Possible. Very possible. Hank is good cop, decent fighter and often quite funny. Trouble is, those traits are also shared by Wu. This means that there is some redundency amoungst the human cast that makes either of them a prime target for elimination.

Personally, I rate Wu's chanes higher than Hanks. Wu is funnier and actually brings something unique to the scooby gang (tech know-how) that is pretty damn useful. I like Hank, but I gotta admit that there isn't really anything he could do that Nick or Wu cannot.

How about Sean?

On the fence here. Sean is important to the group, if for no other reason than it allows the gang to operate without having to decieve their boss. Add in his connections and ability to play the long game and the good captain is a pretty valuable group member. On the other hand, he isn't as integral as Nick or Monroe, and the joke has been made that the Captain has to get shot "once per season", so it is entirly possible that he will die.

Will it be Adalind?

Definate possibility. Adalind is personally my best guess for positon of next fatality. Easily the most controversial character, she has both passionate defenders and determined opponents on the forums. At the moment, she seems to be turning good, and there is a decent amount of speculation that this change of heart will lead to romance with leading man Nick. Personally, I would prefer this didn't happen; there is just too much ill between them for me to buy it. But it could actually be that this buildup of sympathy for her is being supported by the writers so that we actually feel genuinely sad when she dies.

To be honest, we have receives some hints that this iswhat will happen. Adalinds primary priority is the safty and well being of her son (dies to save her child?). She also worries about her hexenbiest self returning (maybe it comes back, she starts to go crazy and she kills herself to stop herself from killing somone?). Though it may be too early to tell, my money is on Adalind.

Those are my opinions, please tell me yours. Who will live...

...and who will die?
