Yeah, it started out that way...but then they changed this in later episodes. 82.21.236.214 also wrote: Josh left soon after his father died, so we don't know if he became a Grimm. That's true. They have left that open. I liked Josh. I hope they bring him back...as another Grimm. 82.21.236.214 also wrote: Trubel's fired after seeing both her parents killed, which would fit the Monroe pattern. But those were her adoptive parents, weren't they? I'm not sure that Trubel knew her real parents. 82.21.236.214 also wrote: If there is a limit on the numbers of Grimm that would suggest magic on a hexenbiest scale perhaps akin to Greenwalt's other show 'unto every generation a slayer is born'.

Maybe that's why they changed it...because it too closely resembled the thing in Buffy the Vampire Slayer? I don't think there is a 'limit' on Grimms, though, because when they came out with the story about the Seven Grimms who created the Seven Keys, there was no mention of there being any sort of limit on the number of Grimms worldwide.
