Maybe you had no chemistry with Juliette but obviously Nick thought HE did since he has been pretty torn up about losing her. The only ones who can understand a relationship are the people in it (or the writers). I still maintain that she brought a reminder of the human world to the series. After all, it's the notion that "they walk among us" that made Grimm so compelling. That's creepier and more memorable than a straight-up fantasy. I have never felt that I ran into an elf or a white walker in real life, but I have been in line with people that I could have sworn were bauerschwein. That sort of peekaboo aspect keeps Grimm in your thoughts long after the TV is turned off. Juliette filled a purpose - she reminded the viewers that there was another reality that we don't belong to and should probably fear sometimes. Hank and Wu are cops, most of us are not in a line of work where danger is a daily threat. As much as I can admire policework, I can't relate to it personally. but I do shop and work and thinking that there are monsters unseen beside me is pretty unnerving. That's what Juliette reflected and the show will lose that flavor without someone else like her.
