Juliette also threatened Kelly while Adalind was still pregnant. I don't think that makes her the perfect mother for him, she might take out her anger at Adalind on him. She literally told Nick no child of Adalind's was innocent to his face. The reason she was kind to Diana after Kelly's death was so she could hand her over to the royals. She only cared about hurting Adalind by helping steal Diana away. She didn't care that she hurt Nick at the same time because she wanted to make him suffer. She should have known they were going to kill Kelly after they had already killed her neighbours.
Nick and Adalind were already in love, there was no way they could go back to their exes even if they were all changed and better people.
Let me just say I never liked Juliette. She annoyed the hell out of me from the first episode. The only time I liked her was when she was played by Claire Coffee while looking like Adalind. Maybe I just don't like Bitsie Tulloch. But maybe not. Since I also didn't find her character to be the nice girl people portrayed her as. Nor interesting. And definitely not badass. Just.. boring. Or maybe indeed Bitsie just didn't transmit it to me so well. I don't know. All I know, is that Juliette always irritated me. And when she just lashed out on everyone because she became a hexenbiest I was happy, thinking: "Finally! I hope someone kills her." I was so happy Trubel shot her.
On the other hand, I always found Adalind an interesting character. Sure, she sports some mischief, like any good hexenbiest, but she was never bitchy about it, or psychotic like Juliette. I can see her struggles too and as a character she really grew on me. She's like a "Loki" character, you know? Even with all her shenanigans, people tend to root for her and feel for her. I hope everything works out for her. She's been through a lot too. Oh, and I also like that she sort of starts off like a naughty kid, and then her character grows and clearly matures.
Bottom line: I'm so psyched for Nick and Adalind. :D What's the ship name? Schadehardt? ♥ Nadalind?
Also, I (friend)ship Nick and Sean. Renhardt?
Another sidenote. I ship Monroe and Rosalie too! The wolf and the fox! :D ♥♥♥
Why do you think it should be about you liking or not liking somebody? We are all different and we have subjective views on things and people. The bottom line is Juliette has never been a bad person, head-strong and stubborn-yes, but never evil. When she turned evil it hapoened because of feeling of betrayal and rejection and inability to cope with the newly born stronger than any other hexenbiest in her. I would have no problem with Nick ending up with Adalind if they gave Juliette a happy ending with somebody else. What the producers did ultimaty wrong is that they failed to treat characters with fairness. I am aware many people disliked Juliette however very few would mind if she found happiness with somebody else. What happened however is one positive charater was victimised repeatedly and then left with nothing and that left many fans disappointed.
Never liked Adalind from the start. Always loved Juliet Eve. The one thing that really got me Adalind was going to sell her baby At first to get her powers back. Sorry or not. Terrible
Terrible yes certainly, but she didn’t sell her she kept her because she loved and her actions were certainly no better or worse than Nick and Kelly and the gangs actions in kidnapping Diania during season 3.
What I like about Adalind is that she changed her mind. She chose to keep Diana because she fell in love with her baby. The reason she wanted to sell Diana in the first place was to get her powers back after her mother and Sean basically threw her out like yesterday's trash because Nick took her powers away. At the time, she was desperate to get them back because she measured her sense of self worth with being a hexenbiest (she was only useful to them as one, they didn't actually care about her as an individual) and so she used Diana (a royal baby) as a means to an end. While pregnant she had a change of heart, not many people get to this point, especially on their own and it made me rethink how I saw her. People make mistakes all of the time, I feel what counts at the end of the day, is rectifying them. She made a mistake with selling Diana BUT in the end, she chose to keep her baby ultimately putting a target on her back. Adalind began the show by making horrible choices and she ended the show making the best decisions (mainly for her children) and that's why I love her. It's called growth and something that's rare to see these days.
Nick and Adalind are my two favourites on this show but it wasn't always like this. Before Diana, I HATED Adalind so much, I didn't think it was possible to hate a fictional character as much as I did but it was her love for Diana that made me soften towards her. It was the first time she stopped being selfish/self centred. She was still bitchy Adalind but one that actually cared for someone beyond herself. If the show ended with Adalind running away with Diana to the middle of nowhere, living under a false name (like Nick's mother was supposed to make happen originally) I would have been happy. I didn't want or even expect tNick and Adalind to end up together. As much as they were thrown together by circumstances, pitting them against one another, I could have lived with them never ever crossing paths again but then Kelly, Nick and Renard had the bright idea of stealing Diana away from Adalind. A horrible mistake.
Now that they are together, just as Monroe and as well as Eve told Nick in the mirror world, perhaps it was all meant to be. Their lives went down a predetermined path. Nick and Juliette couldn't make it work while Nick and Adalind, no matter what the did to one another, or the time and distance between, always found a way back into each other's lives, first as enemies and lastly as lovers.
You have the grammar of a 15 year old so I sympathize you. Also Adalind is hands down the best charecter on the show, unlike boring stale Juliette who would bore anyone to tears.
In S1, Juliette wasn't even a real, independent character. She was a plot device used only for creating angst for Nick. She was forever a victim of his Grimm life which he could never reveal in the beginning and that carried over to S2 (the worst season of the show for dragging out that stupid amnesia plot). Four three and half seasons, the writers never had a plan for her character beyond being Nick's girlfriend, while at the same time, they wrote for Adalind, someone that wasn't even supposed to last past the pilot episode, according to the writers. It shows you which character made an impact with the writers. However vile Adalind may have been at the start (she was good at the end), she wasn't just there, unlike Juliette. Adalind's story parallels Nick before finally converging in S4. No other character can claim that, not his live in girlfriend, or his wesen best friend or his partner.
In S4 to S6 the writers were forced to actually do something with Juliette's character after the non starter of the previous seasons. She may have been Nick's girlfriend at the beginning, but that didn't automatically make her a favourite or even likable. I think because of Adalind being so divisive, some who hate her likely are compelled to like Juliette (the worst written character on the show) just because. The writers forced Juliette to stay with Nick when his Grimm life wasn't conducive to her health, physical or mental. She was doomed the moment she chose to stay with Nick after exposing the fact that he lied to her (after the first wedding proposal). I know many people prefered her as S5 Eve because it was the first time the character received any worthwhile development. S6 just reverted her back to Juliette (including the slight victimisation initially by the stick and then Zerstörer) but now she has the hexenbiest and is no longer Nick's girlfriend.
It feels like Adalnd's character developed from point A to Z but Juliette circled back to the person she was at the beginning with a couple of things different.
I think it's time this thread came to close... or rather, was closed. This thread is starting to go into an ugly direction that, frankly, I should have stepped in sooner to prevent from happening. Thank you to the rest of you who kept the discussion civil in this thread over the last few years.
This bears repeating: everyone is entitled to their opinions about the characters and the show, but there will never be any place on this Wiki for demeaning and/or insulting language, especially personal attacks directed at other users/fans on this site and the actors and former cast & crew of Grimm. The quickest way to ruin the joy of being a fan of Grimm is to attack fellow fans and the people who helped make the show possible. I recommend reviewing the Grimm Wiki:Policies article.
For those who would sincerely like to continue this discussion or other Grimm-related topics, you are more than welcome to do so (within reason, please try to keep it to one single discussion thread). In the future, I will likely just remove posts that violate the Grimm Wiki policies. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns on my Message Wall.
Thank you.
